Just bought that one.

Funny story: it is selling for $500 on sears.com. But, my local Sears is going out of business because they are tearing down the mall it is attached to, so shit's on sale. This exact softener was 20% off. It had been marked up so the 20% off price was $503.

I totally expected it, but I thought they would not have been so blatant about it.

Will be installing it tomorrow. Going to run the clean cycle again tonight to dissolve as much salt as possible before I have to drag it out of the basement. It is over 100 pounds empty and prolly has 50# of salt in it.

That was a fun 2 hour install. Nothing complicated about it, just the fittings required a lot of force to lock in so that was a pain when you've got water going everywhere because the main house water valve is a piece of shit and won't lock down all the way.

Rinsed the resin tank. Purged the air from the pipes. Basement dehumidifier on Max to dry shit out. Running a recharge cycle now so I can see whatup.
