You are very welcome my friend and thank you for watching my videos, I really do appreciate it very much. ☺️👍

You are very welcome my friend 🙏 I am glad that this video helped you install your system in your home. 😊

Thank you so much for your kind words. ❤️ I really do appreciate it very much. You will love your new water softener system for sure because I loved mine and it works perfectly. I didn't regret purchasing this unit at all and I am glad that I went with this unit. 👍

You are very welcome 🙏 and thank you for your kind words. Please keep me posted on your progress and results. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to message me anytime.🙏

You are very welcome 🤗 and thank you for your kind words. I really do appreciate it. 🙏

You are very welcome my friend 😊

You're very welcome my friend 🙏

Not saying you're wrong because I honestly don't know the correct way but the instructions do say to apply 5-6 wraps of teflon tape around the threads of the plastic nipples going into the pre filter housing. Those have O rings on them so not too sure what to do. Use tape or not?

@pianomanamz yes you still do need to put Teflon tape around the thread. Even though the pipe has O-ring on it. It's the best way to get a better seal on the threads so you won't have leaks. It'll be a very hard task to remove the pipes if those pipes are leaking when turning on the water. I hope this helps. Please let me know your progress after your installation. 🙏

Thank you very much 🙏

Wow! I am glad, and you'll be saving $2,700. Thank you so much for watching my video. 🙏 Any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to message me anytime. 😊

I was quoted $6600 glad to see this video as well 👏

Please keep me posted on your progress. 🙏

how'd it go? I am about to do the same thing . .

The system works pretty well. I loved it, and my skin is not drying out anymore.

You are very welcome 🙏

Thank you very much.🙏

Thank you so much. Please keep me updated on your installation for the 48,000 grain system. 👍

You are very welcome 🙏

Thank you very much 😊🙏

Thank you so much and very much appreciated ☺️

You are very welcome. I really appreciate it very much and am glad that my video helped you. ❤️

Can you explain in detail, please. What did you mean?

You're very welcome 🙏

Thank you very much 🙏

Thank you 😊

You are very welcome 😊🙏

Yes as a matter of fact I do think about installing one. I am still doing research on it if it's worth it or not.

You're welcome, my friend. Usually, no if you use the same size piping.

Be aware; the inner diameter of 3/4" PEX B fittings are smaller than the inner diameter of 3/4" copper tubing. If you already have 3/4" copper throughout your house and want to avoid flow reduction, then you should use either 3/4" copper, 3/4" CPVC, 1" PEX B, or 3/4" PEX A (PEX A is expanded over the fittings so the inner diameter is not reduced like PEX B). If you choose to go with PEX B, it is best to use the brass fittings instead of the plastic ones, as the plastic fittings are thicker than the brass, so they have a smaller inner diameter and will restrict flow slightly more than the brass fittings. However, if you are hooking directly to your main water line and it is 1" copper, then your best bet to maximize flow and pressure downstream of your system would be to install the entire system using 1" copper, 1" PEX A, or 1" CPVC. I realize this is a lot of information, but I hope it helps!

@tommy01234567891011 Thank you for your information. This information will definitely help many people. I do appreciate your detailed information. 🙏

should also add i grabbed a 3/8 sharkbite coupler and connected it but i havent turned the water on yet to test it.. fingers crossed lol

Thank you very much

Thank you so much, my friend. I use PEX-B pipes for my setup.🙏

I loved it! My system works great, just the way I've planned it to be. Thank you very much and that this video helped you with your installation. 👍

Great! Please let me know your progress and results. I would really appreciate it. 🙏

You are very welcome ☺️ Yes you are correct! The water in the brine tank is always half full (supposed to be half full). The salt level should be around close to half full (1/4) just like the water level. You only add one bag of brine salt once a month or once every month and a half.

Thank you so much

My water softener system is a fine mesh system that can remove dissolved iron up to 10 ppm from the water coming from the city. Usually, cross-link water softener is good for water without chlorine that's coming from the well water. I hope this helped you decide which system to get.

@@MrBeeHS ok. Am in Texas and believe some of the water does come from a well. I’ll do some more research on our water. Thank 👍🏼

You're very welcome 🙏 I am also in Texas as well.....Dallas

Give the system about a couple of weeks or so to see if the smell disappeared and make sure all of the valves on the water softener system are fully opened and there is no blockage of the waste water line from the resin tank. Where is the smell coming from? The smell in the water or it came from the system itself?

Your water heater , gotta change the rod.

Yes! Definitely my friend. 👍

You can try it, for temporary....I would say it'll work and it might not kill your sump pump. For the long term and continues use, yes it will because of salt water.

Yes, once 73 gallons run out, it will regenerate at 2 am. Also, don't forget to check my other video on how to calculate and set up the total gallons for your household. A 1,000 gallons was a preset setting from the factory, and you don't want to leave at that setting. Because it generates too often. Please check it out. It's the video in my channel about how to test water hardness and set up on AquaSure Harmony Series 64,000 grain.

Yes definitely! But it's a good idea for you to install an extra water filtration system for the well water to get filtered before the water softener system. To ensure the water softener system to work properly and efficiently and prolongs its life. Well water has high minerals and it's not safe to drink unless filtered.

​@@MrBeeHS to my understanding, minerals in the water is good for your health... extreme hardness is not good... to much of anything is not good.. bottled water has hardness added after filtration... city/town water has hardness added after filtration... what are your thoughts? p.s .... copper pipes are anti microbial, plastic is not...

@blitzkrieg.u812 yes you are correct 💯. Minerals in water are good for your health....up to a certain limit. Too much minerals will cause harm to your body like causing kidney stones in your body. Yes bottled water has hardness added to it as well and also to help with the taste. It also depends on where you live as well. Some cities or states have extreme hardness than others. Especially in my area...Dallas, TX. Hardness is very high in my area. So installing water softener helps a lot for my water inside my home. I also have an 11 stage Reverse Osmosis water purifier as well for drinking and cooking. Since my house is still new, they are all using PEX pipes vs copper pipes to save on the cost. Bottom line, I still wouldn't drink water straight out of the faucet unless it's purified and reducing hardness in water will help your household appliances run better and last longer and better healthier life.😃👍

Thank you very much my friend 🙏

Not yet, just open it little by little at first and wait for about 10-15 mins before open all the way.

Great, thank you. 👍

@chrisriguzzi7349 you're very welcome my friend. If you have any issues, don't hesitate to message me.🙏

I spent about $200-$250 on the pipes and fittings.

@@MrBeeHS I couldn't find the answer anywhere, but how would you depressurize the system if I need to reapply teflon on the inlet of the tank? I have a very very small leak

I would shut off the main water supply and turn on the water in the house to let the water out of the system.

what type of pipe did you use from the filtration system to the softener? i got the fittings part.

I use all Pex pipes

Use the plastic housing wrench removal tool that came with your pre filter, slide onto the housing and twist the housing counter clockwise.

There is no plumbing drain in my garage so I drain it outside towards the area where I installed French Drain. Yes, the dirty salt water will kill the grass. In my situation, the grass never grow on the side of my house where I drain the water (mostly are dirt and weeds) and that is the reason. If you do have access to the drain near where you install the water softener, I would recommend to drain it there. 😊

No, it's not illegal. However, it may not be allowed if it impacts public drinking water.....great question 👍

Not necessary, but you can do that

No salt water taste.

Thank you very much. No, it reverted back to the preset at 1000 gallon. My actual number is 4042 gallons. That video was just showing how I set up/put together my system.If you watch my other video, it will show you how to calculate the actual gallon.

@@MrBeeHS Appreciate the response. Again, great job and best wishes going forward.

@misohoney4656 Thank you very much 🙏. I really do appreciate it very much.

You mean the upper distribution basket? The small gray basket? It's a little tricky on it. When you turn it counter clockwise, it should lock in place and it shouldn't come off when you wiggle it. Sounds like it's partially locked, that's why it came loose when you wiggle it. Try to put more pressure on it when you turn, but don't break it though.

You got to muscle it I thought the same thing it wouldn’t turn it wouldn’t turn but then I was looking at the little gray basket in the groove so you kind of got it just put it in and then put some muscle to it

That's great 👍 and did you get the system up and running?

Yes, it's correct. It's supposed to be halfway filled. Mine is halfway filled also. This particular brand will be halfway filled. You can adjust the water level as well in the brine tank. The adjustment is inside the white tube. It's kind of like in your toilet water tank.

@@MrBeeHS OMG Thank you so much. I was going to go home and try and clean the injector. My co worker scared me and said there should just only be a little water in between regeneration. I'm going to leave the float at factory setting. My water had been so soft and I couldn't have accomplished it without your videos. THANK YOU AGAIN. If you ever have a question about softner maybe I can help you out as well.

@chrisriguzzi7349 cool, thank you so much my friend. I am great to hear that my videos helped you accomplish your installation. ❤️

I have this same system. I’m not going through that much salt currently my water is about 2-3 inch over my salt. Should I have the salt about even or slightly higher? I’m using iron fighter pellets but still getting a little discoloration/ hardness. Any tricks you can suggest ? I’ve sent aquasure my water test/ results and they wasn’t much help other than helping me set the cycle to 2500 gallons instead of factory default of 1000 gallons. Any help is greatly appreciated

@jimmymolden4966 That sounds about right, my friend. How many lbs of salt have you put in? I use one bag (40lbs) Diamond Crystal salt pellets brand from Home Depot.

Yes, you can, but the grass might die, though. Because it has salt content.

It is odd, but as long it goes through those cycles, then it'll be fine.

It has a self maintenance which schedule early in the morning after you deplete the gallon usage. It will clean itself and replenish it with salt from your brine tank.

Not really, it only treats tap water/city water.

During BD, water shouldn't come out through the drain. Basically, it'll draw salt water from the brine tank to charge the resin inside the resin tank.

@@MrBeeHS thanks for the answer, I feel like during the 60 minutes my water is being thrown away… do you know how to fix it ?

That is how it is....I know how you feel because it's a waste of water down the drain. It's ok because that is how the process works. You can't really use that water on plants or grass because it will kill the plants.....too much salt concentration. You shouldn't change the settings because the length of process was set at the factory, and it's not recommended to change the settings.

@@MrBeeHS i understand, but during the BD it’s drawing salt water and the same time it’s throwing water out the drain, and as you said it shouldn’t do that … 😢 I’m just a little be worried about it

Let it complete the whole cycle and see what happened. Don't be alarmed as of yet....be patient, my friend.

I bought the kit for under $600 because it was on sale and right now it's about $750 with the filter.

How long have you had salt pellets in there? The salt pellets don't dissolve like regular salt. The salt pellets will dissolve very slowly. I added one bag per month.

@@MrBeeHS Oh okay, I'm starting to see that now

Yes definitely! If you install the whole house water filter system along with the water softener system.... you'll have the cleanest water for your house and it will be one of the best set up, best investments that you will appreciate.

@@MrBeeHS are you going to have another video?

@@shate74662000 yes, but not the whole house filtration system though. It will be installing the electronic water descaler which will also help break down the lime scale in water.

@@MrBeeHS I'm moving to new house. I feel like the water entrance will be from the roof just like yours. Do most builders build like this recently?

@@MrBeeHS I just do DD on electric water descaler. If you have water softener why would you still need descaler ?

Yes definitely

Did you install it correctly?

@@MrBeeHS yes I did and I had the plumber come to help. It doesn’t work correctly at all

Wow, I am sorry to hear that. Have you tried to return the unit back to the store?

Yes definitely, but that part of my yard I have no use for, mostly weeds growing there not good grass. That's why I let it drained out to the yard on purpose.

So when you say that your water smells bad now, does that mean your system is working now? What kind of brine salt are you using? Are you using the pellet kind? Also did you set up according to the number of people in your household? What size of piping are you using for your water inlet and outlet? Looks like your system might need some tweaking on the settings as well.

😄

It's one of the best water softener system that you can buy right now that works really well. My friend install Rheem brand one and it was terrible.

Actually you are incorrect! Brine waste water contains a high concentration of salt. Sure you can water your plants with it and your plants might be fine right now, but just wait, your plants will eventually die from the brine waste. Salt concentration from brine waste will affect your plants. The salt concentration will fake the nutrients for plants and make plants think that it has enough water to feed and eventually the plants will die of water starvation.... it even kills my grass! I let the brine waste out into the side of my house and now all the grass turned yellow.

Actually you are both are incorrect! The Brine water will cause the plants to become self aware and attack like the plant from Little Shop of Horrors

🤣🤣🤣🤣

That's right salt is not added to your conditioned water, he bypassed the softener to not consume gals. sofened for outdoor water use to keep cost down so it won't regenerate and use up salt to wash itself. Water to your water bibs don't need soft water to water plants but plants don't mind clean water too.

Wow! Really? Can you show me any source of information or scientific proof stating that conditioned water will not harm plants? I will be waiting for that and please put a link in my comments so everyone can check it out if the proof is true that conditions water will not harm plants. How long have you use conditioned water to water your plants? Yes, you can definitely drink conditions water, just like drinking tap water (not conditioned water), but it's not good for your body (high in TDS).
