By Laura MyersLAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL. Four months before Nevada's GOP presidential caucus, Republican White House hopefuls will debate in Las Vegas on Oct. 18 in a live televised forum hosted by CNN. The event is sanctioned by the GOP, organizers said Wednesday.
Ion-exchange water softeners start around $400-$1,000 for a basic unit. Installation costs range from $100-$500 (depending on the type of equipment, ease of access and whether you need to add new piping and a suitable drain for the unit) for a total cost of $500-$1,500 for basic water softener in an average-size home.
However, if access to the site is limited, added difficulty for maneuvering your water heater may increase labor costs. Typical installations in the basement of a home cost an average of $381 compared to $395 for installing in a garage and $409 for fitting a water heater in a closet. Whole house water heaters are installed in a single location and supply the hot water for all fixtures and appliances in the home. Both tankless and tank-type water heaters can serve as whole-house systems, costing an average of $679 to install. Some applications may warrant multiple point-of-use (POS) units, which are installed for an average price of $481.
