Ok FB friends, I'm looking into getting a water softener soon because I'm tired of all the annoying issues and yucky appearance that hard water causes... Pretty sure our house is not yet plumbed for a water softener, which I know will be somewhat costly to do... Has anyone done this and have recommendations as far as if it is better to have a plumber do it (if so, who?) or go with a company like Lowe's? Thanks in advance for any helpful advice :)
