Thought I would let you know how pleased I was today with my new water
softener installation.
From my sales person Mike Sommer to the installer which I am sorry I don't
know his name, it was a very uplifting experience. Everyone I dealt with was
very nice and professional.
Please know that if I hear of anyone in need of a softener I will say the
name Hawkins proudly. Thank you again for the great service.

I just wanted to thank you and especially Curt in your sales office. I was so impressed with his knowledge and helpfulness. I called with a problem on equipment Hawkins did not install that I was sure would need to be replaced. Curt made a trip to my house the same day and did something very unusual for a typical salesman – he fixed our old unit! He was so educational – teaching me how to use the unit and explaining all the working parts. His help was truly a blessing in our lives as replacing the unit would have been quite a burden for us right now. I will definitely give Hawkins and Curt my future business. Thank you and God Bless!

Just a note to let you know that your staff is very professional and courteous - from the lady who answers the phone to the gentleman who listened to the concern and made the appointment. The technician made the proper repair in a very timely and professional manner. This is my first experience with your company. You were recommended to me and I will do the same in the future.

I am a new customer of Hawkins Water Tech. I cannot say enough about our first experience with your company, specifically Doug Hostetler. My family, including two children under the age of 3, live in Granger. It's no secret that our well water contains high levels of nitrates. Upon purchasing our home, we installed a reverse-osmosis system to deliver safe, clean, drinking water for our family. After 5 years of use and annual maintenance, I decided to contact Hawkins Water Tech for a free water test to ensure our RO system was still functioning properly and to complete a health check on our water softener. After submitting an online request, Doug contacted me via phone within 30 minutes. Great first impression. He recapped my request and quickly scheduled an on-site consultation to complete the water test. The morning of the appointment, he contacted both myself and my wife (who was at home) to let us know he was on his way while providing his anticipated arrival time. He showed up right on time. My wife showed him to our RO system and water softener in the basement. He completed the analysis and provided a thorough debriefing of our current systems, which were both functioning as desired. He did offer recommendations for improvement, including a more efficient RO system that would provide better filtration and production capacity, however he did not push any of these offerings on either myself or my wife during/after the visit. I spoke with him via phone following the visit to discuss his recommendations. He provided thorough and honest feedback, which I really appreciated. Overall, excellent experience with Doug! I will recommend HWT without hesitation to friends, family, and anyone else who asks. Thank you!

When our son gave us a new Rainsoft water treatment system, we were grateful….until the brine tank overflowed three times! We needed help, so we called Hawkins Water Tech.
Upon examining the installation, Kevin (the service tech) observed that the carbon filtration unit was plumbed ahead of the softener, which meant it was doing the “heavy lifting” of removing iron, a task that was well beyond its intended assignment.
Kevin re-plumbed the carbon unit and reprogrammed the softener, even though it is not one Hawkins sells. He did an outstanding job and his knowledge, work effort and demeanor were a fine reflection on your company.

More than expected! Our experience working with the fine folks at Hawkins Water was the best we could ever have imagined. Their team bent over backwards to ensure that our final water treatment system met our expectations. I use the word “team” in its truest sense. Our installation included water softening and a reverse osmosis (RO) system. It turned out that we didn’t care for the taste of the RO water. That’s where the team at Hawkins really showed their commitment to customer satisfaction. They worked with us to try solving this issue – without any hesitation. In the end, we had the RO unit removed and switched over to filtered hard water for drinking. It turned out that my wife and I just didn’t like the taste of RO water. During this process we were impressed with the diligence that the Hawkins Team placed in resolving our issue. As if that wasn’t enough, we received full reimbursement for the removed RO unit. To sum it up – call Hawkins Water if you are considering installing a water treatment system.

First improvement we made to our new house... We only had to deal with hard water and a clogged up, spray your face off, pins and needles, cheap hotel style shower head for 3 days but I'll be the first to admit that a sucky shower can absolutely alter your mood. Not only did our water technician work around our schedule to do the initial water testing and assessment, our installation professional moved our service date up, was extremely polite, didn't mind our dogs (even gave one a hug) and he completed the additional work we requested on short notice with a smile and no complaints (we asked that he service our water heater after he had already arrived) To top off this excellent experience, Hawkins did NOT try to sell us products we didn't actually need (contrary to our experience with another water company) and they were less than HALF the price of their competitors. Thank you SO MUCH Hawkins Water Tech. I absolutely recommend this company to anyone living with less than spectacular water! Thank you again Arlin, Dave and Jim! #badhairweekisover #itsthelittlethings #sorefreshing #softwater

We built a new house about 9 years ago and had your company install one of your great water softeners. We also continued to buy all of our salt from you. A couple months ago after I cleaned out the salt tank, we stopped having soft water. I called and talked to one of your service guys and was ready to pay for a service call. He told me what to do over the phone and it took care of the problem. I just want to thank you for the great service and a great product.

From working with Curt on making the initial appointment and getting the estimate, to the office person I spoke to when paying, to Shawn being so helpful with scheduling the install, to the gentleman (and I am sorry I did not get his name) [Nate] who did the installation, I am truly impressed. Everyone has been so courteous and helpful.
Hopefully I won’t need any assistance other than filling the system with salt but I feel assured that, if something does go wrong, your company will handle the issue just as quickly and efficiently as the installation process has been.
I would recommend you all highly.

I am writing to commend your technician, Arlin Yoder, for the terrific job he did installing the softener and purification water system at our Edwardsburg lake house. He showed up on time, and did a wonderful job re-configuring our existing plumbing schematic. His professional design is neat and attractive and takes up minimal space. The system in working well. The water tastes as good, or better, than any bottled water. We are glad that we chose Hawkins for the job, over numerous other companies offering water conditioning systems. Keep up the good work.

Wow! I can't say enough about the service I received from Hawkins Water. You were right on time with the appointment and quote. Sean was right on time with the call back and scheduling, realizing that the additional plumbing needed a couple of guys.

Arlin and Corbin were right on time and were both great guys with fantastic attitudes despite the old houses goofy plumbing.
Please let them know how appreciative I am of their work and attitudes!

Oh, almost forgot, I am very confident that our rusty, hard water problem will be a thing of the past.

I have never dealt with another company as fantastic as HWT. From the first contact, to the calls to set up the install, to the install itself- everything has been A+. I love my water now- which is huge for me. I am thrilled to be a customer of yours and will do all I can to spread the word.

We were already well underway with remodeling our kitchen and were getting ready for school to start again, so needless to say things were hectic around our house. In the process, we had gutted the kitchen and needed some way to have water available in/near the kitchen while we were remodeling.
Wanting an easy way to get info, I filled out your online form about bottled water and water coolers. I was pleasantly surprised by your quick and thorough reply, explaining the different options and pricing for Hawkins’ services.
Through conversations and the information you provided, it was clear that while the bottled water or cooler option would solve our immediate situation, a long-term solution for convenient, refreshing water would be your sink-mount Reverse Osmosis system. So we made arrangements for its installation.
Your technician ~ Kevin ~ came out and he was all business; he put the other guys to shame with his efficiency and productivity! He quickly installed the system and we made arrangements for him to come back to finalize the installation when the granite counters arrived.
After he left, I counted the pre-granite holes made in the counter “base” and realized that the place he had intended to put the RO system was the space I had already committed to my garbage disposal button. So when the granite arrived, he had to do some modifications for a tidy and effective placement. He happily did that and looked at the connection to the water in my fridge, to make sure it was working properly. All the while, he was polite, accommodating and just plain great to work with.
I was telling my neighbor about our experience and she said “Oh, yes! Everyone knows Hawkins is the best!”
Thanks for having the foresight to help me discover what I needed instead of just “taking the sale” for what I thought I wanted. Please feel free to use me as a reference for your business, anytime!
