In the first two installments of the How To Plumbing Series we looked at plumbing emergencies. Over the next several posts we will shift our focus to — drum roll please — toilets.
Yep. There’s a lot to know about toilets.
You researched the hard water issue at your home and decided to purchase and install a water softener yourself to help solve the annoying water problem.
In this post we take a look at installing and maintaining a water softener.
Do note: Most homeowners who are comfortable with Do It Yourself projects around the house and who are familiar with basic plumbing should be able to install a water softener themselves. However, if you are unsure of your DIY skills and plumbing knowledge, call your plumber for assistance. It will cost extra dinero, but you’ll have a peace of mind that the job is done correctly and you can save a weekend day to watch the Bulldogs, Falcons, or Braves.

- Think they can do it on their own
- Don’t know who to call
- Don’t want to mess with it
- Don’t know who’s honest and who is not
