Setting a Whole-House Water-Softener Skid Pad in a Pinellas Side Yard

A water-softener or whole-house filter needs a level pad that will not heave when the brine tank weeps. Setting that equipment on bedding sand beside a walk is how side-yard pavers stain and settle. PaverForge Hardscapes sets a dedicated paver pad with its own edge.

Clearances and splash

We leave manufacturer clearance at the tank and valve head, pitch the pad to a pop-up or dry well rather than the walk, and keep salt splash off adjacent joints with a slightly raised soldier band.

Sleeves

Inlet, outlet, and drain lines get sleeves under the pad so a future exchange does not require tearing the walk. Request photos of the existing equipment location when you book at paverforge.com.
