How much space is needed for a water softener system?

How much space you need for your water softener depends on the system you select. A typical water softener setup usually includes a tall mineral tank and a separate brine tank. However, there are compact, cabinet-style systems for homes that don’t have the space for this.

The location of your water softener must have room for:

  • Plumbing
  • Drain connection
  • Electrical outlet
  • Enough access to add salt and service the unit

During an in-home assessment, we measure the available area and recommend a system that fits without swallowing up more floor space than necessary.
