Our Installation Standards

At Flat Rate Water Softeners, installation quality matters just as much as the equipment itself. A properly installed system performs better, lasts longer, and protects your home’s plumbing and appliances. That’s why every installation we perform follows clear, consistent standards—no shortcuts, no guesswork, and no pressure.

Proper System Sizing Comes First

Every water softener or filtration system we install is sized based on your household’s water usage and local water hardness, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Correct sizing ensures efficient operation, consistent water quality, and long-term reliability—especially important for Utah’s hard water conditions.

Professionally Installed 

All installations are performed personally by the owner, not subcontracted out. This ensures consistency, accountability, and attention to detail from start to finish. You work directly with the person installing your system, not a rotating crew or third party.

Code-Compliant, Professional Installation

We install all systems in accordance with:

  • Utah plumbing code

  • Manufacturer installation requirements

  • Proper pressure regulation (≤ 80 PSI)

  • Correct drainage and air-gap practices

  • Safe electrical and outlet requirements

Our goal is not just to “get it installed,” but to install it correctly the first time.

Quality Materials & Components

We use professional-grade materials and components designed for long-term use, including:

  • Lead-free plumbing materials

  • PEX piping for new plumbing runs when required

  • NSF / ANSI certified components where applicable

  • Proper fittings, supports, and secure mounting

We do not reuse old components or take shortcuts that could compromise system performance.

No Shortcuts. No Upsells During Installation.

We do not undersize systems, reuse parts, or pressure customers into last-minute add-ons during installation. Any recommendations are discussed before installation so you can make informed decisions without surprises.

Accountability After Installation

If adjustments are needed after installation, we handle them. Our work is backed by professional standards and manufacturer warranties, and we remain available to answer questions and ensure your system performs as expected.

Why This Matters

Water treatment systems are a long-term investment in your home. Proper installation protects:

  • Plumbing and fixtures

  • Appliances

  • Water pressure

  • Overall system lifespan

Our standards are designed to give you confidence—not just on installation day, but for years to come.
