Two other points to bear in mind if you have a softener fitted is that
you must have an unsoftened drinking water tap installed, due to the

That is only the advice of teh water companies. There is not a health
reason for it. Having said that, all tap water tastes pretty
disgusting anyway.



In addition you have to have a
compulsory water meter installed as they use excess water during
regeneration.


Not true. The only requirement is that the supplier is notified
that one has been fitted. It doesn't necessarily mean that they
will insist on a meter. It does mean that the householder no longer
has the right not to have a meter according to DEFRA.
