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.
How much does it cost to install a water softener? Angie's List members who had a water softener installed in 2013 reported paying an average of about $1,690, with a general range near $1,875 to $2,060, not counting discounts many service providers offer to members. Water softeners themselves usually cost about $1,000 to $2,000. Even though this may seem like a lot of money, a water softenerâs lifespan is about 15 years.
