Never an emergency. Take the time to get two quotes.
General guidance, not advice for your specific situation. We do not publish cost estimates: almost no contractor here lists their rates publicly, so any figure we printed would be a guess you might plan around. Ask two of them.
This page lists firms whose own website names this work. 244 further listings have told us nothing about their services — they may well do it too. Browse every Calgary listing.
Calgary’s supply is on the harder side, and it varies with which treatment plant serves your part of the city. The City publishes current hardness figures by area, and that is the number to use — a figure quoted second-hand by a directory is not a basis for sizing equipment.
Hard water leaves scale in kettles and on fixtures, shortens the life of a hot water tank, and makes soap less effective. Whether that is worth treating depends on your hardness reading and how much it bothers you. Anyone selling you one should be testing your water first, not quoting the city average.
A softener removes the calcium and magnesium that cause scale. A filter targets taste, odour, sediment or specific contaminants. They solve different problems, and a firm that treats them as interchangeable is worth a second opinion.
Properly set up, no. Salt regenerates the resin bed and is rinsed away; it is not meant to reach your tap. A salty taste means the unit needs attention. Many households keep one unsoftened cold tap in the kitchen regardless, which is worth asking about at install rather than afterwards.
