How Would A Licensed Plumber Install A Water Softener?
To ensure proper installation and functionality of a water softener, it is recommended to hire a licensed plumber. The process typically starts with choosing the right location near your main water supply line for easy connection to both the water supply and drain. The plumber will shut off the main water supply and drain the existing pipes before installing the bypass valve to the softener. They will then connect the softener's inlet and outlet to the pipes using flexible connectors to allow for movement. The discharge hose will be attached to a drain to manage the periodic regeneration cycles that expel accumulated minerals. After filling the brine tank with salt and turning on the water supply, the plumber will check for any leaks and make necessary adjustments. Following the manufacturer’s instructions carefully is crucial for the system's efficient operation.
