Regarding water softener and RO installations, Aqua Life of Houston greatly ensures the system is properly installed and configured. A proper water softener and RO installation must always abide by local plumbing codes. When it comes to water-dependent equipment, avoiding water leaks is imperative. No matter how small a water leak is, it can have devastating consequences if left unchecked.
Water Softener Valve Configuration
It is also important to note that configuring the water softener valve takes experience. The settings must be customized for your particular needs. These settings must consider your average water usage and the quality and pressure of water in your home. A misconfigured valve can waste water and use more salt/potassium than a properly configured system. Or even worse, it can damage the system.
Optimized water softener and RO installations
On the other hand, a professionally configured system will provide you with scale-free water efficiently, avoiding extra use costs. Best of all, you must use much less salt to keep your water soft. We recommend contacting us if you suspect your system uses too much water or too much salt. However, a very little salt system will not properly soften your water. The key is balancing water and salt usage and valve settings.
Reverse Osmosis System Installation
Once again, we can not stress enough that an experienced professional always carries out this type of installation. The same care must be taken to avoid leaks. Two aspects of installing an RO system must be carefully considered.
The first would be the proper professional installation of your RO faucet. If your home is new or has never had an under-counter water filtration system installed, you must drill a hole in your kitchen counter. Depending on the type of countertop your kitchen has, this step can be more of a challenge than it may appear. Special consideration must be taken when drilling a hole in natural stone counters and other types of counter material. This step must be performed by a professional with experience to avoid damaging the countertop.
The second installation consideration would be properly installing the drain line for the RO. Once again, this is best carried out by an experienced water professional technician.
