Hard water is more than a minor inconvenience for Fort Worth homeowners. The high mineral content common to North Texas can shorten appliance life, leave scale on fixtures, and raise energy bills. A properly sized water softener is the most effective long-term solution—but only when it is specified, priced, and installed with precision. That is where CountBricks steps in.
Traditional estimating relies on spreadsheets and guesswork. CountBricks uses real-time voice capture and an extensive materials database to generate an on-the-spot line-item estimate for your water softener Fort Worth job. From resin capacity to bypass valves, every component is priced with current local costs.
If you are a builder or remodeling contractor, upload your plans to CountBricks.com and let our AI automatically identify water entry points, pipe sizes, and drain locations. You receive a downloadable takeoff with clear quantities and installation notes—no manual scaling required.
Once the scope is confirmed, CountBricks auto-generates a branded proposal you can email directly to your client. Homeowners love the transparent breakdown of labor, materials, and timelines. Contractors love the time saved.
• Mineral tank sized for 32,000–64,000 grains depending on household demand
• High-capacity resin media rated for Texas water chemistry
• Meter-based control valve to minimize salt usage
• By-pass assembly for easy service
• 1" copper or PEX connections to preserve flow rates
CountBricks technicians inspect the main water line, verify available electrical outlets, and test static water pressure. An undersized line or excessive pressure can cause premature valve failure.
Our AI takes household occupancy, fixture count, and current hardness data to recommend the correct grain capacity. Oversizing wastes salt; undersizing leads to frequent regeneration.
The International Residential Code requires an air gap on softener discharge lines. CountBricks installers route the line to the nearest approved drain or exterior location, preventing cross-contamination.
After back-washing and bringing the unit online, we walk homeowners through salt setting, regeneration cycles, and recommended maintenance intervals.
• Grain capacity: Larger homes require higher capacity, impacting both equipment and salt costs
• Valve technology: Digital metered valves add efficiency but carry higher upfront pricing
• Location complexity: Slab-on-grade retrofits may need a new loop, increasing labor hours
• Permits and inspections: Some municipalities near Fort Worth require plumbing permits; CountBricks handles the paperwork in our estimate
A 4,000 sq ft home experienced scale buildup on faucets within six months of a complete remodel. Using CountBricks voice estimation, the contractor captured the homeowner’s concerns, measured flow rate, and generated a detailed proposal in 12 minutes. The approved scope included a 48,000-grain system, 20 ft of 1" PEX reroute, and a new garage drain standpipe. Installation finished in one day, and the final invoice matched the AI estimate within 1.2%.
