Review: Superb Performance, Easy install, Responsive Customer Support - Arrived in 2 boxes separated by 1 day. The resin tank is the heavy box and it’s delivered and placed on its side so it won’t accidentally topple over. Useful to have a wheeled cart (or second person) to move the resin tank to the installation location. Good instructions! Read first in totality as there’s some useful tips on common installation challenges one may encounter, for example- what could happen if the resin tank is delivered on its side and what to do about it. (YouTube videos have good installation tips you can follow visually but they don’t cover some of the challenges commonly encountered. ) Overall easy install if you have the 1” FIP corrugated metal connectors. (We already had them coupled to the old softener we replaced but we found it prudent to replace them with new ones along with this new softener install). Found the seller to be very responsive , helpfully addressing all my questions in a timely manner. Overall excellent experience, excellent softener performance, excellent customer service, and… it’s so nice to have soft water ! Huge difference! Silky smooth! One tip: ChatGPT was surprisingly helpful with Control Valve settings once it inquired about some basic parameters regarding the system and intended usage. It’s also helpful in determining the ideal system sizing (grains) for your house hold and it turns out that slightly oversizing the system but with control valve setting reflecting a smaller size comes with some performance advantages (too long to explain here but ChatGpt easily does). Also , while package comes with 1 hardness test strip (to determine initial hardness used in control valve settings) I bought a pack of test strips to monitor the effectiveness of the softener at all my valve locations and for later checks to see if it’s regenerating to full capacity often enough. Great to note and experience zero ( or near zero) hardness throughout our home.
Review: This is my first softener and purchased this unit based on reviews. - Had a great deal on desertcart for this system and purchased. I have read the reviews and decided even though it was easy to self install that I would use a plumber. I was charged $400 for the install but they did a fantastic job and installed extra shutoff values while they were at it. Well worth the money as they had all the tools and the knowledge to handle any issues that came up. When the product arrived, I placed the two boxes downstairs where the softener would be placed, but did not check the contents. The plumbers informed me that a 3/8" hose that runs into the brine tank was missing and I would need to complete the job. I called ABC Waters and spoke with Joe, who had the hose shipped to me in 3 days. Thanks Joe! I was so glad that the plumbers installed the device. I have hot water heat in the front half of my house (8 rooms). The plumbers advised placing the softener after the split for the water going to heating system due to salt content of water. They also advised that I would need to connect my outside faucets before the softener or I would be watering my garden and plants with salt water. I had never thought about these issues when making the purchase. They really saved the day and confirmed my belief that hiring this job out was the right way to go. Our water tested at a hardest level of 10+. We use a Zero Water filter pitcher for our coffee. Before the install the tester that comes with the Zero Water showed that our water had 238 PPM, after the install, that number went down to 159 PPM before filtering. I was amazed at that. Our softener install was completed on Jan 26. Since then, I have noticed that the shower stays much cleaner. The water feels much nicer, soap really lathers up quickly, so we use less. Our clothes seem to be cleaned from the laundry. As I write this, it has been bitter cold here in the East. During the winter, my skin gets very dry and I will have cracks at my finger tips, even with putting lotion on. Since the softener has been installed, my skin is much softer and does not seem to have as much dryness. Other than using bottled water for the inside plants, I really love having the softener. I would whole heartily recommend this softener to anyone considering installing one. When I checked local stores and plumbing supply stores in my area, the softeners were all in the $1,000 range without installation. I saved a lot by buying this item on desertcart and having the plumber install it worry free. Thanks again to ABC Water.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product, good price, smooth install. Very happy!
*by B***B on December 14, 2016*

This shipped quickly and was as described. I had no problems connecting everything and really went together uneventfully. The shipment came as two boxes, which arrived on different days. The resin came pre-loaded from ABC Water, they also e-mailed the instructions, setup and programming ahead of time. There are also good videos on programming the Fleck valve -- but it's pretty easy. The instructions were clear and in all it was a straightforward install. I have plumbing experience and had set things up ahead of time -- but I'd never set up a softener before. A couple of minor notes: I had already installed a 3 valve bypass using ball valves, I didn't need the bypass that came with the unit -- It's modular, so you can leave the bypass off if you have a similar situation. The unit comes with 1" Male pipe thread connections - but if you need something else check with the seller to see if they can substitute. ABCWater seems to be accommodating.That piece is modular as well, so they can swap out that part pretty easily. You do have to install these with an air gap - you can't install a softener and just stick the drain hose into the drain. I picked up an air gap that fits into the 1.5-2" drain line along with the washing machine drain at big box hardware. You do need to test your water to set things up properly (or even know if this is the right product for you). If you are on City water and don't have an Iron issue, then buy a reliable test kit (I used the Hach 145300 Total Hardness kit). If you have Iron or any other issues get your water tested by a reputable testing company (not someone selling you a water softener). Update 4 years later: Works great I'm still very happy with this choice.
