"Very legalistic. Way too expensive for 3 hrs work. Better read that workorder carefully not that you can understand what it says though as it's abreviated and cryptic. I needed joints moved etc. sweated as I orginally explained. That wasn't in the bid as it turns out. Not like $850 wasn't enough for 2 hrs work to install the tub and walk away on what I really needed done. At that point my spout was sitting where I'd have to cut INTO the tub to poke it through??? . Tells me to buy whatever brand I want then want then adds an valve installation charge. So another $175 to get what I originally wanted. I had told him I was concerned about it being properly leveled. He said it was yet admitted his level wasn't working properly? Okay? So now I'm waiting for him to come back because the valve is not mounted out far enough. Per the workorder I got a tub install, CPE lift & turn, & a lift turn with overflow??? I have no idea what that is yet in the end this guy shows me the workorder as evidence I owe more money. If one is going to be very legalistic regarding what's written on a workorder then the workorder should be written describing all work to be performed for the CUSTOMER in detail!!! Not a half dozen cryptic words and acronyms of which the customer has not idea of their meaning. I'm highly disappointed in the manner in which this company does business."
"TL:DR The American-made equipment works very well. The company ultimately assured the installation was complete and correct. But it was a rocky road. It was easy to schedule an appointment with a sales person. He spent a lot of time trying to sell me a system, when in fact I'd already done my research and knew I wanted to buy their products if they could improve my water quality. The salesman was able to give me measurements of dissolved solids and pH, which was important to me. Installation was fast; within about a week, our system was in place! Unfortunately, the installation did not pass inspection. When I contacted EcoWater Texas about the problem, the owner said the inspector was being unreasonable, and this had never happened before. He said he was uncomfortable having his plumber do the work the inspector required, and I would have to find someone else to do it. He said he'd pay the cost if it was reasonable. I contacted the inspector to get a detailed explanation of the work to be done. The inspector came over and gave me a red tag, formally failing the installation. He said I should call EcoWater Texas and tell them I had the tag, and if I submitted the tag to the licensing board they'd make it right. When I did that, EcoWater Texas agreed to find a plumber to do the work and cover the costs. The new plumber finished the installation, and it passed inspection. I then asked EcoWater Texas to test my water to make sure the system was working as advertised. This took a little time, but the salesman returned and did the testing. That's when I learned the system was only treating half my water! The rest entered the house in a different place. Apparently EcoWater Texas didn't check for that when they did the original installation. So EcoWater Texas had the second plumber come back and tie in the rest of the house water. The entire process took several months."
A water pressure booster doesn't require special maintenance. Like any house system, inspections should be a regular part of your annual schedule. Check for leaks, faulty valves, pressure loss, and mineral build-up. Pressure loss could be a result of mineral build-up, and you can descale the system with a vinegar and water solution.
A sump pump can be plugged into a regular, 110-volt outlet with three-prong openings, but it must have GFCI protections per the NEC, meaning you’ll need a GFCI outlet and circuit. Sump pumps require two outlet openings, one for the plug to the motor and one for the float switch.
Inspect the pump annually, test the float switch, and clean the discharge line to ensure efficient operation.
When a backflow valve fails, wastewater will flow back into your system, contaminating your drinking water. You’ll immediately notice backflow valve failure from a rotten smell and brown water coming from faucets. Get in contact with a septic pro or a plumber immediately if you suspect this has happened to you.
Every three to four months, you should clean any dirt and debris off of your sump pump. You should also check the inlet screen (at the bottom of the pump) to make sure that it isn’t blocked. On top of that, you should deep clean your sump pump once per year—or hire a sump pump pro to do it for you.
