& If they do, where would it hook in to the water? at the water heater? If anyone knows, I would appreciate it!

  1. They do have softeners for small homes. The thing with an apartment is you would need to buy 2. In a house you would simply put it on the cold water line before the water heater and both your hot and cold would be softened. In an apartment building however, there's probably one water heater per floor, and you just can't go hook up a water softener there and soften the whole floor's water. You would have to find where the hot and cold lines come into your apartment, and put a softener on each.


  2. not that i know off most are just filters.

    alltho you could purchase a small softner unit and install it yourself .

    Most fresh water inline,s come in where the hotwater tank is in aparptments but i could be wrong in your case.

    if there is a mainline comeing in where your hotwater tank is it will t-off one for cold and the other going into tank.If that is infact the mainline for apt.This could be hard to locate as to some apt. are t'd off in wall.

    you will need to shut down supply at street or lot access.

    They should be individually mark by numbers for apt.

    Then cut at wall run from wall to unit then from unit to apt.
