Softener Loop Installation in Old Town, ME

Softener Loop Installation in Old Town, ME

Softener loop installation in Old Town, ME gets a house ready for a water softener. Many newer homes come with a pre-plumbed loop near the water heater or in the garage. Plenty of others don't, and the main line needs to be cut in so the softener can sit where it should.

Old Town, ME Water Softener Installation plans the loop before cutting any pipe:

• Find the main line after the meter or well pressure tank
• Decide which fixtures to leave on hard water, usually outdoor hose bibs and sometimes the kitchen cold tap
• Pick a spot with a level floor, a nearby drain and an outlet if the valve needs power
• Check that there's room to service the tanks later

Then we tie in a supply and return using copper, PEX or CPVC to match your existing pipe, and add the bypass and isolation valves. If the house has a garage loop that was capped years ago, we open it, pressure test it and fix any corrosion at the fittings.

We'll also note if your home's plumbing is bonded to the electrical ground through the water pipes. If it is, we add a jumper wire across the softener so the ground path stays continuous.
