What Can We Do For You?

As a locally owned team, we understand just how frustrating the KC metro area’s notoriously hard water can be. All that calcium and magnesium in the water tends to cause scale buildup in pipes, water heaters, and appliances, meaning they just don’t work as well as they should.

We’re more than just your average HVAC and plumbing company. We’re your neighbors, so we take care of you the way we’d want to be if we were in need. When your water just isn’t up to par, we’ve got the solutions to improve quality. We even have special offers and coupons that can help bring the price down.

How Much Does a Water Softener/RO System Installation Cost?

What Affects the Cost of a Water Softener/RO System Installation?

The cost of your water softener or RO system installation varies greatly based on factors such as:

  • System capacity: Larger systems capable of handling heavy water usage for large families often cost more than smaller ones.
  • Necessary plumbing modifications: If your home needs any plumbing modifications to accommodate the water softener or RO system, expect to pay for the additional labor and materials.
  • Accessibility and complexity: How accessible your plumbing is affects how complex the job is and labor requirements. A simple job usually costs less than one that takes significantly longer due to accessibility constraints.
  • Water hardness level: Hard water usually requires a water softener along with an RO system to improve your water quality. Installing the water softener adds to your final bill.

FAQs

Water Softener and Reverse Osmosis Installation Frequently Asked Questions

You likely need a water softener if you notice signs such as:

  • White mineral buildup on faucets, showerheads, and pipes
  • Low water pressure, caused by mineral buildup inside pipes
  • Your soap doesn’t lather right
  • Your skin is dry
  • Your clothes feel stiff or look dingy after washing

If you suspect your water is too hard, test it. Water test results with over 7.5 grains per gallon (GPG) typically indicate that you should install a water softener.

If you have a water softener, check the salt levels monthly and fill it up when the tank is less than ¼ full. Most people have to add salt every six to eight weeks. However, if you use a lot of water or if your water is very hard, you may need to refill more frequently.

RO removes most contaminants and impurities from water. This includes dissolved solids, heavy metals, chlorine, bacteria, viruses, fluoride, and more. These systems work by forcing water through a semipermeable membrane, removing almost everything but the water molecules.

No, not usually. RO systems usually only need electricity if the home has low water pressure. It may also need electricity if you choose a system with advanced features such as ultraviolet (UV) filtration or computerized sensors. Most standard RO systems use the home’s normal water pressure to operate.
