Water Softener Installation
Protect Your Pipes and Replenish Your Body With High-Quality Water
The human body is made up of approximately 60% water, so you want to make sure that you’re replenishing it with the highest quality H2O. In Central Indiana, most of the local utilities source their water from wells, which can produce calcium and magnesium-rich hard water. Although there’s nothing wrong with drinking hard water, it can do serious damage to your pipes, water heater tank, and plumbing fixtures over time. That’s why having a water softener is so important. Armor Air’s plumbing experts bring a wealth of water softener experience to the table. We can handle installations, repairs, and maintenance services of all kinds.
Read on to learn more about water softeners and how your home can benefit from having one. And, if you’re interested, give Armor Air a call for expert water softener installation service in Indianapolis.
What is a Water Softener?
Water softeners are appliances that remove minerals like calcium and magnesium from water. This is done by running the water through a bed of resin beads that attract and bind the minerals before flushing them out into the sewer line. The softened water is then passed through a filter to remove any remaining particles before it is ready for household use.
Water softeners are very important because hard water can cause a number of plumbing problems such as scaling and mineral buildup in plumbing fixtures, appliances, and dishes. It can also leave your skin and hair feeling dry and brittle. By removing the minerals from your water, you no longer have to worry about these hard water problems while drinking, cooking, and cleaning with your water.
Why Get a Water Softener For Your Home?
Here are some of the main reasons homeowners opt to install water softeners in their homes:
Reduced Soap Scum And Limescale Buildup
Ever notice an opaque scale on your sink or shower tiles? This can be the result of hard water exposure. Water softeners solve this problem, making it easier for you to scrub and clean your fixtures and appliances.
Softer Skin And Hair
When you rinse off with hard water, a little bit of soap residue remains on your skin and hair. With a water softener, you’ll notice that your skin feels softer, and your overall hygiene will improve.
Better Tasting And Smelling Water
Hard water can have a metallic flavor to it. With the help of a water softener, you can enjoy better-tasting and smelling water from your taps, making it more enjoyable to drink and cook with.
Increased Energy Efficiency
Your appliances that use water will thank you. It takes less energy to heat softened water, and there will be less mineral buildup and corrosion.
Reduced Plumbing Maintenance Costs
With a water softener, you won’t have to spend as much money on plumbing repairs and maintenance due to limescale and soap scum buildup. The likelihood of mineral buildup and leaks goes way down as well.
How Much Does Water Softener Installation Cost?
The cost of water softener installation can vary depending on a number of factors such as the size of the unit, the type of installation, and any additional components that may be needed. Generally, water softener installation can range anywhere from $500 to $3,000.
Armor Air can work with you on pricing to give you the best bang for your buck, and we can help you get set up on an easy long-term payment plan with our financing options. Start enjoying your softened water right away, and pay on your schedule.

Kelli Bryant
Love working with Armor Air. Did an update to the thermostat app and it quit working. New HVAC system is functioning fine, there is something wrong with the app itself. Tech Robert Reynolds was here and was super helpful. Still waiting on resolution.

Annette Morical

Ashleigh Morgan
Great local company that stands by their commitment to their customers, every time. I've been a customer for 4 years (and had a range of work performed by them) and will remain one, because these folks back up the work they do.
Edited Aug 2025 to add - Still a customer and wanted to specifically shout out Ryan, who recently did a plumbing inspection and repair for me. He was down-to-earth and honest for both visits, answering questions and explaining things, and I wholeheartedly appreciate dealing with a service technician that keeps it forthright and candid.
Daniel Nold
Armor Air installed and replaced the water softener, RO system, and removed and installed 2 bidet toilets. It did take 2 days to complete, but it was worth every penny. They took all the packing, cardboard, and cleaned up all 3 areas. I strongly recommend Armor Air for all plumbing and HVAC needs.
Scott Griffin
Richard was very professional in his work installing a whole home dehumidifier and provided a clear understanding of the work being completed. I would absolutely recommend for HVAC services.
Mark Fraser
I needed an ac unit replaced as my previous one was failing to keep up with the heat and the unit needed replaced. The team at Armor Air was able to come out and evaluate the system within 24 hours and the next day I had a new ac unit at a reasonable price for the unit I requested. Some key things to note about working with Armor Air. 1. They offer a range of pricing options for brands and quality tiers of ac units and their sales representatives are knowledgeable and able to have candid discussions on what is appropriate for the property tailored to your preference. If you are looking for a budget, mid tier, or high end system, they gave reasonable quotes and did not try and upsell me. I requested a specific brand and they accommodated, and they even took into consideration coolant changes that can happen in the industry did their diligence to make sure my coolant could easily be refilled in the future (to the best of their ability). 2. They stand behind their work and if there is an issue with install or function of the unit or the system they respond promptly and act quickly to make it right. 3. Everyone I interacted with at the company was pleasant, knowledgeable, and professional. 4. They left zero mess, contained any construction dust, etc, and the areas they worked in were actually a little cleaner after they had finished working than it was before they started. 5. They do their best to accommodate any needs you may have. In our case we brought home a newborn and our unit failed the day we got home from the hospital, and they prioritized our install given our situation.
In addition, I was so happy with my initial experience of the ac unit installation that I rehired them to expand some return ducting for better airflow in a section of my house that had chronically been hard to control the temperature. Again, prompt service and good job with installation.
I want to reiterate they have fantastic follow-through and customer service. If there are any issues during or after the work they perform for you, then they will make things right.
It is refreshing to find a company that is offering reasonable prices and amazing customer service, and I would highly recommend armor air for any work you need from my experience with them. 5 stars! Thank you to the entire team!
Katie Kemiel
Armor Air is awesome! Matt and I had a technician come out to perform a tune-up and assess our furnace and air conditioner at the end of July. Robbie was our technician, and he was super knowledgeable, friendly, and helped us understand what we can do to help keep our home air clean and healthy. We have a little girl at home, so making sure we are keeping things comfortable is a priority, and Armor Air will be our go-to for all our home needs. Thank you!
