My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

New Water Softener Issue

6 years ago

I recently had a salt based water softener installed and it is metered. The meter is showing that water is flowing even when all the water is off. There is no leaks. I am not sure what to do to get the meter to read accurately. Could it be back flow pressure from water heater? If so how does it get fixed?
