They explained the options clearly, and during the visit explained what they were doing and the results, which was helpful. Overall it went well. The system did not supply enough salt at first, but they came out quickly to adjust/correct it. Friendly installation personnel too.

I highly recommend SecondWind Water Systems. I will only call them for service and testing of our well water. Their rates are competitive. Jesse Gagnon is a very knowledgeable and professional representative. He is responsive and punctual and most importantly, I feel he is honest and trustworthy. For several issues, he has steered us in the right direction for services and saved us lots of money! Call SecondWind first!

Secondwind Water Systems based in NH through their agent Home Depot of Londonderry push the services of Secondwind in their Londonderry store as a 'great deal' if you want a water softener system; that was far from the case with this company.First off, they were higher priced than the other quotes I received (by almost $1,000). I choose to hire them because I am a self-employed consultant and I only get paid for the days I work and they were willing to work with my schedule to install the unit. To make a long story short; I hired them, they never showed up the day they were supposed to install the unit, were extremely unprofessional when I spoke to them and as a result I lost over $1,000 from having to take the day off when they were supposed to install the unit. I spoke to Peter the general manager of the Londonderry, NH store---he was no help whatsoever and lacked the ability to resolve a problem for a long term customer. I fired Secondwind and now have to start all over again in finding a reliable company. Save yourself the hassle of dealing with this company, save the added expense of their overpriced system and find another company to do business with...there are too many good service providers to have to deal with a bad one like Secondwind.
Description of Work: This company in conjunction with Home Depot in Londonderry, NH is a joke. This provider was overpriced, unprofessional and never showed up to do the work on the day it was scheduled. I am shocked that Home Depot would associate themselves with this vendor. I as a result of my experience with Secondwind and their rep Jessie Gagnon and Peter the GM of the Londonderry, NH would not shop at Home Depot again, instead Lowes was the complete opposite.

The outcome of the service was great. The water quality is now excellent!
Description of Work: We were introduced to Secondwind by our realtor when we were buying our home in NH. We met with RJ Brown from Secondwind when we found out that our well water had high levels of both uranium and radon. RJ developed a solution for us in a timely manner that helped us negotiate with the seller of our house and then rapidly implement the solution when we closed. RJ had to coordinate efforts with another contractor and this went smoothly and the most optimal solution was identified. The team from Secondwind installed two systems and they were all fantastic. The service was professional and timely and the cost of reasonable. I would unconditionally recommend Secondwind and hope that I have the opportunity to deal with them again some time in the future.

They did a phenomenal job. It was a high-end water softener, and they even guarantee it for five years. They were right on time and were very professional. It was highly detailed plumbing work, and everything was exactly perfect.

Very happy with overall experience. They were a little confused as to which town I lived in. Promised to come the day I called, then later in day they determined they had me listed I the wrong town and had no servicemen near me that day. Promised the next day someone would come. They did and he not only repaired the broken hose, explained how the system worked, and did a yearly checkup and cleaning. The technician was very polite, knowledgable, friendly, and professional. Called before he arrived, came within time slot scheduled, and went right to work. Very pleased with the company and the service received.

Tech called the day of the service to make sure I was there and to let me know the precise time he was coming . The tech was extremely professional and answered my many questions. Prior to the service, the office was great about having to reschedule my initial appointment. This company is very responsive. The only issue I have is the cost of the service, even with the discounts they generously offer. I'm not sure that any other company would cost less. I do recommend this company, but be aware that they may be more costly than other companies.

They showed up when they said they would, put the system in place in 2 or 3 hours - with a very clean job. Phone calls and follow up to ensure all was done correctly and a return call to walk through it. First rate company and product.
Description of Work: Very Professional and Dependable company. If you're interested in a water softener, and you are not interested in piecing the system together and supporting it yourself for less money, buy it here. The price is higher than a DIY system, but then - it will be done perfectly by an experienced company. I highly recommend it.

First I was visited by RJ who tested my water and explained how the system worked and how and where the new water system would be installed. A few weeks later (delayed due to me not Secondwind) 2 service men arrived and installed the system in very tight quarters professionally and quickly. It took about 4 hours. They went over the functions of the system, labeled everything and explained what I needed to do to maintain it. RJ came back a few days later and retested the water and went over the maintenance procedures again - not much to maintaining this system, but nice to know and have everything labeled. I am a very happy customer - no more orange water stains and great tasting water. I highly recommend this company - professional, fast service and they sell a great product - Kinetico
Description of Work: Visited by a water specialist, RJ who tested my water and suggested the correct Kinetico water softener system for my situation.

On the day and time of the schedule estimate, Charlie arrived at my door a few minutes early. He came with a tool box full of water testing gear, a camera to take pictures, and a clipboard with his forms to take copious notes. I was immediately impressed because no other contractor came half as prepared or professional. He spent a good amount of time understanding the layout of the water system and the basement and we talked about where I wanted the system to go and how I wanted it exhausted. He figured our well/tank/filter system out, tested the water, and sketched out the system on paper. He talked me through everything and answered my short list of questions. He gave me a quote at the end and on his way back to his office, called another company to coordinate a same-day install for soil remediation. All was lined up and green-lighted within 48 hours for an install a few weeks later. On installation day, Bob showed up at 9am on the nose as scheduled. He was very friendly and immediately got to work, looking over the install area and walking me through what he was going to do. The morning was uneventful, with a request to turn water on/off here or there, as he did the installation. When I poked my head in at noon, the unit was installed neatly in the corner with all the water piping run and ready to be exhausted (another company was handling the exhaust pipes). When he was finished, he ran his system tests, took water samples, and called me down to review the system. Bob walked me through all the parts, thoroughly explaining what to do when and how, and left me with all the paperwork. It was one of the best home contractor experiences I've had, and he left that area of the basement cleaner than it was when he arrived. I had 3 contractors come in to give us quotes and this company wasn't the least or most expensive, but it was the one I felt was the most professional and put on the least sales pressure. The only reason I gave a B in price is because I did get a significantly lower price from another contractor for the same unit - by close to $1000. I think he was just trying to get the job and low-balling the bid (and who knows what he would "find" when he'd get here), but it made me think that there must be enough margin in the price for him to afford some of that reduction. Who knows, really. I still think their price was fair.
Description of Work: Installed a water radon mitigation system - the BubbleUp - in our basement attached to our well pump/tank.
