can it be installed easily or do I need to call a plumber?

No need to call a plumber- you just hook it up (easily) to your faucet when you want to use it, and then unhook it when it's done.

Yes, my plumber was able to get it mounted straight. I took some adjusting but it is possible.

I'm an older woman and managed to do it myself but I'm pretty handy around the house. If you are not, you may want to call a plumber, but take a look at the instructions first. Actually, take a look at the pictures, they're easier to follow.

The install is not hard and will not be too difficult for a DIYer who has replaced faucets and similar. You are only connecting three lines, hanging the unit, installing the faucet in a hole and plugging in a power plug. OTOH, You are installing these three lines and hanging the box upside down in a small, dark, uncomfortable box with small doors probably already packed with assorted plumbing, garbage disposals, hoses ect... There are better ways to spend an hour.

To install it you will need to solder on two threaded ends that go in and out of the unit. If you are not familiar with proper soldering techniques than you will need a plumber. Also when I purchased this unit it leaked, twice. The GE brand is much better.

I had my handyman install it. I watched - it looked very easy and only took a few minutes. Sorry I can't add more.

I don't think so, I didn't see any instructions for that. A plumber could probably do it.

It is a breeze to install. EXCEPT it is really wide and deep so i couldnt fit it under my sink without moving all the plumbing. However, if not for that, no problem to hook up to pipes.

No plumber required to install unit. Instructions are simple for installation. You do need an electrical outlet in reach of the electrical cord. Mo remote needed as the controls are on the side of the unit and you have to be sitting on it for any of the controls to operate. We love it. It was a good replacement for the one that gave out after about 10 years.
