Water Softener Leak Repair
April 11, 2020|Deb o U N Y, Up State New York
After scheduling Sears repair service for our Sears Water Softener and being stood up twice we decided to complete the repair on our own. The Sears Parts Direct helped us trouble shoot our problem and provided a Link to a U-Tube Video that demonstrated how to make the repair. We are now enjoying soft water again.
