Irene1/5

I am very disappointing customer service with Sunshine Water Softeners & More. They rarely answer the phone, and it took me several days and numerous attempts before I was finally able to reach someone.

I signed up for their water softener and reverse osmosis filter/service in March of this year. Since then, I have received no follow-up to check how the system has been working or whether I was satisfied with the service. When it was time for my routine service, I again had a very difficult time getting anyone to respond.

When I finally reached a customer service representative, he seemed unclear about what I was actually paying for. He promised to email me the details regarding the filter included with my service, but I never received the email.

He did schedule my routine service appointment and gave me a 10 AM–2 PM arrival window over the phone. I waited during that entire window, but no one showed up. I called during the appointment window to get an update, and once again, no one answered the phone.

At this point, I regret becoming a customer. My experience has been extremely frustrating, and the lack of communication and follow-through has made me lose confidence in the company. It feels like their priority is getting customers signed up and collecting payments, rather than providing reliable ongoing service.

I am now looking for another company to take over my water softener service, and I hope this company will at least contact me to arrange pickup of their equipment.

Based on my experience, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere if reliable customer service and follow-through are important to you.

William5/5

We were replacing an older water treatment system that had finally gone to that great water treatment plant in the sky.

Enter Marco and David, the dynamic duo.

I came into this installation with a pretty detailed list of things I wanted addressed based on our experience with the old system. I also came armed with approximately 847 questions. Marco and David handled all of it with patience, professionalism, and the kind of confidence that makes it obvious they know their trade extremely well.

We talked through the placement of the Titan 2000 and Executive 12, the brine tank, the flex connections, and especially the routing of the drain line. I was particular about where things went and how everything was laid out in the garage. Instead of simply doing whatever was easiest, they listened to what mattered to me, explained the options, and made sure the finished installation worked for our space and our needs.

What impressed me just as much were all the details I didn’t ask for. The power cords were neatly routed and secured to the wall with cable clips, excess cord was bundled cleanly, the plumbing was tidy, and everything looked intentional and finished. You can tell when installers are simply trying to get to the next job, and you can tell when people actually take pride in what they leave behind. Marco and David clearly fall into the second category.

Once everything was installed, they didn’t just pack up and disappear. They took the time to walk me through both systems, explain the regeneration cycles, what to expect over the next couple of days, and even things I hadn’t thought to ask about, such as what happens after a power outage and what I might need to check or reset. By the time they left, I actually understood the equipment that had just been installed in my house.

They were professional, experienced, patient, friendly, and left behind an exceptionally clean installation.

And perhaps most importantly, neither of them judged me when I paid them with my Star Wars themed check. To be fair, I never did establish whether either of them was secretly a Trekkie, so I suppose they may simply have been exercising extraordinary professional restraint. Either way, no intergalactic incident occurred, which I consider another mark of excellent customer service.

Seriously, Marco and David represented Sunshine incredibly well. When you’re spending this kind of money on equipment for your home, you want the installation to look and feel like it was done by people who genuinely care about the finished product. That is exactly what we got.

Outstanding work from start to finish.

Ed5/5

Marco C did an excellent job! He came out for periodic service and found that our water tank or bladder was aging and not working properly and replaced it. Prompt and professional service!

Jonathan5/5

Exceptional Service from Marco C.!

We recently had our water system set up by Sunshine Water Softeners, and Marco C. provided absolutely phenomenal service.
From start to finish, Marco was professional, efficient, and meticulous with the installation.

What truly stood out was his dedication to customer care. He didn't just install the equipment; he took the time to thoroughly educate us on the system and even taught us how to manually test our own water quality moving forward.

It is rare to find a technician with both top-tier technical skills and genuine patience. Marco is an incredible asset to the company, and I highly recommend asking for him if you want the job done right!

Hedy5/5

Sunshine water softeners have a great Customer Service department. Cory was a big help to us.

Natalie5/5

Marco,

Came over to service the tank and change the filter. He did a great job and explained everything thoroughly. He was quick and efficient. He worked around my schedule since my kids had to go to urgent care. Thank you !

William5/5

Service specialist Marco did an excellent job upgrading our RO filters and tank 8/3/26. Fast and professional. He checked and re-checked everything to ensure no leaks or problems. Very happy with Sunshine!
