Why Big Box Stores Aren’t Your Water Treatment Answer
Minneapolis St. Paul water treatment isn’t a simple issue. Every community in the area has different water treatment needs. Finding the right water treatment solution for Twin Cities water problems requires expertise and experience with Minnesota water issues.
You’ve probably seen frequent ads for budget-priced water softeners sold by big box home supply and hardware stores. While the prices may seem to be a bargain, there can be many hidden costs and other issues in purchasing water treatment appliances from these sources:
- Limited Selection – Big box stores can sell you only the particular appliances they offer. If their “one-size fits all” solutions aren’t right for your water treatment needs, you’re out of luck. They’ll be happy to sell you a system that won’t do the job, but that’s no solution.
- Limited Expertise – Big box store sales personnel usually don’t have the expertise needed to identify the proper solution for your individual problems. In fact, the salesman you talk to may know nothing about water treatment. Big box stores make you become the expert, and that’s not your job as a consumer.
- Limited Solutions – Big box stores don’t sell a full range of water treatment appliances. They have water softeners and may have water filters, but they simply don’t offer all the systems you may need.
- Unknown Installers – Big box stores sell just the appliances. They use third-party individuals and companies to handle the installations. Installation is not included in the list price in the store. Typically, they’ll offer to arrange for installation, but how do you know that their installers are fully qualified to do a proper job. You don’t have the opportunity to check the credentials and other details of the person who installs your purchase.
- Extra Costs – Original installation estimates are often too low, with add-ons and extras added to your cost. Too often, an improper installation can lead to failure during local inspection and require time-consuming callbacks to fix what was not done properly the first time.
- Poor Service – If problems arise later, it’s up to you to locate the original installer, if he is even still in business. Worse, the big box store may not even sell that brand of appliance any longer. They just buy what they can get cheaply, then wash their hands of the sale, once it’s completed.
