Will A Water Softener Harm My Septic System?
While there have been concerns over a water softener’s impact on septic systems – such as killing the bacteria in the septic tank with salt, overflowing tanks with too much backwash flow and reducing the drainage field’s ability to absorb water modern treatment systems have reduced these risks considerably. Today's units minimize salt consumption and it has been found to have no harmful effects on bacteria and the soil of the drainage field if properly sized. Insuring your equipment does not regenerate the softener not more than once a week will reduce the amount of backwash entering the septic system and maintain a health septic bed.

- I was wondering if I could schedule a service appointment. I got one non-working fridge and one that isn't working properly. I think the non-working fridge has a dead compressor; I'm not sure. There's no sound coming out of it, and the freezer/fridge is not cool. It's a GE Profile fridge and is about 11 years old. We just keep it in our garage. It's our spare fridge, so there's no water hooked or anything like that. Then we have an in-house KitchenAid bottom-freezer refrigerator that is about 3 years old. The problem is that it keeps icing up. And when that happens, the refrigerator portion won't cool properly. The sooner your guys could come out, the better.
