Alright so, my pain problems are the drain and the soldering. I'll remember your extension cord advice lol.Is there any chance I can get some kind of connector/adapter so I won't have to solder the connection? I guess I wouldn't mind paying, but I like to try to do things myself so I can learn. I think it's fun doing DIY stuff, but sometimes frustrating.
I have not worked with copper.This may actually be harder to install than I imagined. The connectors look like they are not threaded. If they need to be soldered, and I cant buy anything that would work in lieu of soldering, I'm kind of screwed. Theres not an electrical outlet in the same room. We dont use the basement, so I guess I could use an extension cord since I dont care about looks (there's a plug in the next room over), but I dont know how safe that would be. And I have NO idea how to make a drain. The next room over is a shower/bathroom.

Ah, thank you sir! How much is salt usually?
back yourself up with some facts DCal ... what other decent alternatives are there?
You can just google water softeners and the destruction they cause to the environment. You don't need to soften water.
One company (the one Doug recommended, qualitywatertreatment) recommended this for $550 and ohiopurewater (someone recommended this site too) recommended this for $555 (he said $573, so there may be shipping or some customizable option available for extra).
I think they're both the same lol. I dunno. Still a bit more than I wanted to spend. I may just go with what I have.
