• <div><p>Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.</p></div>

Q: Can you drain a water softener into a cleanout?

Check out <a href="https://codes.iccsafe.org/content/FLPC2023P1/chapter-6-water-supply-and-distribution#FLPC2023P1_Ch06_Sec608.14.1">Florida's Plumbing Building Code</a> as an example of what these restrictions might look like. </p></div>

Q: What shortens the life of a water softener?

• <div><p>There are several things that can shorten the life of a water softener. Homes with very hard water may have to replace the unit sooner because the water softener works harder to filter out the hard minerals. High water usage and infrequent maintenance can also put more strain on a water softener.</p></div>

Q: How many hours does it take to install a water softener?

• <div><p>While it depends on how complicated the unit and installation is, it takes two to four hours to install a water softener unit, on average. It might take longer if pipes need to be replaced. You should make sure the installation area is clear of any objects that might get in the way before you begin.</p></div>
