"Horrible !!! Please save your self money and effort. This guy is a complete fraud ! He overcharged me and broke my shower head. I cant believe he has no skills - cooked up a story and upon calling another plumber I got to know what he has done and how he charged me. I got his number from a friend. Very disappointed and please be careful if you do end up calling him, he will break your stuff and cook up a story. He told me he had to go get the shower cartridge and took 45 min to come back. Tells me he will charge me by the hour and then breaks the cartridge saying it doesn't fit but instead he broke it while installing and that's why the shower has still been dripping water. Completely incompetent. Called him many times to come back and fix the shower, he refuses to answer any calls or return any messages. DONT Hire him !!!!!!! And be careful about the stuff around the house, I have lodged a police complaint about him too for some missing stuff from the room the bathroom he was in."

"Economy rooter was selected by home depot for do installation of appliances after kitchen remodel through them. They came and apparently nothing is part of their work order. The technician wants more money for moving the cooking range to its position from 4 feet away. Same with all appliances. It only takes 3 secs to push it and I did it myself. But the attitude is appalling. Then they cannot connect drain because the hole position changed. They cannot guarantee anything. No guarantee of previously existing appliances, because they are old. No guarantee on new appliances because they are new and are supposed to work. Basically they are okay with the money they get. But not really interested in doing any work. Their modus operandi seems to take these orders from Home Deport or Home warranty companies - probably at lower cost and then swindle money from home owner by charging extra for everything."

The license requirements for water softener installation depend on your location. Some municipalities require that the installer hold a plumbing license, some require a permit and an inspection, but no license for the installer, and some require a permit and a license for the installer. Regardless of the local laws in your area, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed plumber or installer. These pros will install your system properly and have the experience to size the system appropriately. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your installer’s license status.
The cost to install a water softener system is $1,500 on average, ranging between $200 and $6,000. The labor for water softener work typically costs between $150 and $1,000, so you can add that to your equipment costs to get an accurate total. Your price will depend on many factors, including the following:
System capacity
Home size
Water hardness levels
Type of water softener
Presence of electricity in the installation area
Local permit costs
Water softeners are worth the money if you live in an area with hard water. Hard water is safe to drink, but it poses serious threats to your plumbing system. The minerals in hard water will gradually build up on the inside walls of your pipes, reducing water flow to your fixtures. The minerals can also gradually corrode your plumbing system, reduce its lifespan, and increase the risk of leaks. Hard water also makes soap and detergent less effective. Water softener systems can solve all these issues, making them a great investment.
It’s possible to install a water softener yourself, but we don’t recommend it. Water softeners require working with copper pipes and electrical wiring, neither are suitable tasks for most DIYers. Plus, working with water and electricity together is dangerous and could pose a risk to your safety. Water softeners also need to be calibrated so that they don’t make your water too soft, as soft water poses just as many risks as hard water. Overall, it’s well worth hiring a local water softener installer to place your water softener system.
Your water softener size is based on your total household water consumption. In most cases, you can assume the average household member will use around 75 gallons per day. Multiply that by the number of people in your home, then multiply by 10 (for the typical grains per gallon). You’ll get a number in grains that should help roughly size your water softener. However, it’s best to hire a professional to install your system and use more exact numbers, like your exact average water consumption per day and starting water hardness.
