There is some plumbing involved to install this unit. Cutting into cold water side of plumbing of water heater Is needed.

It depends on how comfortable you are with plumbing work. You will have to shut off the water line and insert the valve. You will need to be able to solder in the new piece of pipe with the valve. If you are not comfortable with this you will need to call a plumber.

I installed mine without a plumber. Works perfectly. Less than 1 hour to install and test. Plug and play design. Its not hard to do. Need to have a power source within 5 feet of the valve location. You can always call a plumber if complications develop.

It depends on how comfortable you are with pipe fitting and soldering joints. The device has to be inserted into the cold water intake pipe. It's more than I was prepared to deal with because I didnt have s pipe cutter or torch. I also wanted to get some maintenance done... Anode rod and such, so I called a plumber.

To do it yourself, you have to be confident in your ability to interrupt the existing cold water supply to your hot water heater and bring it into and out of the Floodstop valve. There are all kinds of products out there to help homeowners including flex lines to go into the hot water heater and PEX fittings to transition from the existing copper tubing. That said, if you are a total novice, this probably isn't the project to start learning on. Good luck.

You do need a plumber unless you are comfortable with cutting copper pipe and sweating copper joints to install the waterpipe portion of the unit. The electronic plug-ins are easy to do.

My husband installed it, but a plumber can install it for you. I have no Idea what the cost would be.

I would suggest that you ask a plumber how to hook up something like that as it seems a bit more complicated.

I just bought this sink and my husband installed it. And, no nothing special needed. However the disposal is heavy and awkward to get it installed. We finally ended up using a small jack to balance disposal while making sure it was secure. Good luck!

The confined space of being under my sink was more of a hassel than the actual mounting. The instructions are fairly straight forward, and I think most people could install it without a problem. I wouldn't imagine you would need a plumber.

This need to be done by a plumber. See the installation manual ... If you want to do it yourself you need to open the wall unit there are adjustmens inside the ibox.

It didn't look very hard, but I had my guy (who does all my electrical/plumbing/etc work) do it. Went in easily and is working fine. Hope this helps.

The system is packaged with the idea of do it yourself so you don't have to get professional help. Many of our customers were able to install it themselves by following the very comprehensive installation manual that we include in the package. We even have a video on youtube that shows how to install our system step by step. However, if you are not comfortable installing the system, any local plumber should have no trouble installing it for you in an hour or so at most.

We have no problem. I think that's a question for your plumber or whoever installed it. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Everything is included except a qualified plumber for installation. Make sure you hire someone who really knows what they are doing because the directions are complicated but once install is complete it will be the best investment you will ever make.

I don't have a handy man bone in my body. I called a plumber. They can quote over the phone how much the install will be.

We hired a professional plumber and it took him (and a helper) about couple of days to get this installed. As I understand, you need the usual hot and cold water supply pipes coming in and this is connected to the plumbing at the back of the unit. The water drain is at the bottom just like other tubs. We also hired an electrician to do the electrical connections.
