This is very common. You might want to listen to the water softener sales pitches and take their $25 gift certificates. If you feel the need for a water softener, go to Home Depot or Loews and buy one ($500) and have a local plumber install it ($200 ??). Much less expensive than the $3000-$6000 offers.

After stupidly giving her a phone number, she then mention that someone would call us regarding water softening treatments. We then asked her if she actually worked for TV and she said 'No'. Has this happened to anyone else? Looks like she works for a marketing company called Robar Marketing....check it out...we did. Enough said. Please let me know if anyone else has had this experience and what did you do about it.
