TABLE OF CONTENTS

STEP 1: THE QUICK PHONE CALL

When you call, we're not going to waste your time. We need to confirm three things:

YOU OWN YOUR HOME

Renters need landlord permission. If that's you, get it in writing first.

YOU'RE IN OUR SERVICE AREA

Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood, and surrounding areas. If you can see downtown from a tall ladder, we can probably help.

YOU HAVE A CRAWLSPACE OR GARAGE

That's where the magic happens. No crawlspace? No garage? We'll figure something out, but we need to know upfront.

WHAT HAPPENS ON THIS CALL

  • Answer your questions (all of them)
  • Give you actual pricing (no "let me talk to my manager")
  • Schedule your installation or in-person consultation
  • Send confirmation texts so you don't forget

READY TO GET STARTED?

Call us for a quick consultation or book a 15-minute discovery call to see if we're a fit.

STEP 2: INSTALLATION DAY

30 MINUTES BEFORE

Your technician texts you. They're on the way.

WHEN WE ARRIVE

  • Shoe covers before entering (your floors stay perfect)
  • Quick water test to show you the "before"
  • Locate your water main and crawlspace/garage access
  • Explain exactly what we're doing
  • Lay down protective materials

THE INSTALLATION TIMELINE

Complete water treatment system installation

HOURS 1-3: WATER SOFTENER

We're in your crawlspace or garage installing the softener system. You'll hear some drilling and movement, but we keep it professional.

This is when we also install a main shut-off valve if you don't have one (super handy for future plumbing emergencies—and free with your system).

HOURS 3-4: RO SYSTEM

Under your kitchen sink getting the reverse osmosis set up. We'll need the cabinet cleared out (that ancient bottle of Comet can stay, but maybe move the good china).

HOUR 4-5: TESTING & TEACHING

  • • Test your water again (prepare to be amazed)
  • • Walk through how everything works
  • • Show you the salt tank (and how to never think about it)
  • • Answer every question twice if needed (no judgment)

HOUR 5-6: CLEANUP & PAYMENT

  • • Remove every trace we were there
  • • Final walkthrough together
  • • Payment only when you say "perfect"
  • • High fives optional but encouraged

HOW TO MAKE INSTALLATION DAY SMOOTH

CLEAR THE PATHS

If you can clear a path to your crawlspace and under your sink, amazing. If not, we'll handle it.

BRING YOUR QUESTIONS

Seriously, ask us anything. How does ion exchange work? Why is water wet? We love questions.

PLUMBING WISHLIST

Our installers are licensed plumbers. See a dripping faucet? Toilet running? Mention it. If we have time, we can add it to your invoice.

WHAT YOU DON'T NEED TO DO

  • • Take off work (unless you want to watch)
  • • Provide tools or materials
  • • Clean the entire house
  • • Know anything about plumbing
  • • Make us lunch (though we won't say no to coffee)

HOW PRICING WORKS

ON THE PHONE:

We give you exact pricing. Not "starting at" pricing. Not "ballpark" pricing. The actual number for our bundles. If there is anything difficult or custom and will require more time and materials, we will make sure you are aware of that before we start working.

POPULAR PACKAGES

  • Starter Bundle: $2,875
  • Will's Special + RO: $3,350
  • Big Daddy Bundle: $9,867

DAY OF INSTALLATION:

Invoice sent digitally. Payment processed after completion. We accept:

  • • Check
  • • Card (credit or debit)
  • • ACH
  • • Financing

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER WE LEAVE

DAY 1:

RO makes gurgling sounds (normal). Water tastes different—you're tasting nothing for the first time.

WEEK 1:

Skin stops feeling tight after showers. Hair actually feels soft. Shower doors mysteriously stop getting that film.

MONTH 1:

First regeneration cycle at 2 AM (might hear it). Check salt level. Friends ask what's different about you. It's your hair—it has shine now.

MONTH 3: THE FULL GLOW UP

Hair grows stronger (minerals were blocking follicles). Skin completely renewed with clean water. Pink biofilm in shower? Gone forever. You're using half the products for twice the results.

If pink stuff returns or skin/hair compliments stop, check your salt level. That's literally the only maintenance.

LONG-TERM MAINTENANCE

MONTHLY

Look at the salt tank when you walk by. If it looks low (you can see water), add water softener salt. Any brand from any big box hardware store. Takes 30 seconds.

EVERY 6-12 MONTHS

RO filters need changing. They twist off, twist on. Seriously easier than changing a lightbulb.

We can do it, or you can. If you want to do it yourself just give us a call and we can order you a new set of filters.

ANNUALLY (OPTIONAL)

We offer a service plan that includes:

  • • Filter delivery and installation
  • • Salt delivery and filling
  • • System health check
  • • Yearly salt brine cleaning
  • • Priority service for any issues
