Water Treatment
Water Treatment
What would be the best strategy & (low cost) to start a Plumbing/Water Treatment Business in the Atlanta area?
Looking for a jump start into the Plumbing Service/repair business in Atlanta. Currently in my third year running a Plumbing Service business (Licensed Plumber/Contractor) here in Chicago Suburbs. Also have certifications in Water Treatment, Water Purification and backflow prevention.
One aspect of plumbing that always seemed like a great start-up to me (since I saw it done in MA):
Hot-water heater replacements. That’s it. All you do. So you stock maybe 4 or 6 models. Travel with 3 in your van and the basic copper and CPVC pipe and fittings to install one. And a really good dolly with a ratcheting strap. And who needs or wants a store-front anymore? A cellphone and voicemail is all you need.
And here’s the slam-dunk if you have some money to invest: Offer rental HWHs. Like $12/month. You’re into for the wholesale cost ($100 or so) plus a few parts and labor. You make back your capital in less than a year. And every year thereafter. For 10, 20 years or more. Because some people don’t have retail price + parts + labor ($350?) laying around. And even more people would rather spend that on a new wide-screen TV and pay you $12/month forever. Even landlords – they might just hang it on to the rent and save themselves the up-front costs.
Bust your butt until the rental income exceeds your income needs, do a 2-3 more years of part time and then retire.
Because whoever needs a HWH replaced, needs it NOW!
Obivously you want a good contract drawn up. And you need to (emotionally) accept that some 5% will welch on you and another 15-20% will go bad over the years. A cost of doing business.
I talked about this with a very good CPA and he was sure one could take it to the bank (literally). It pencils out as a very solid business proposal.

How Can Water Treatment Equipment Save You Money and Keep You Healthy
These days, more and more people are realizing the need to take care of the environment and to perform the consequent responsibilities in order to ensure the health, safety, and longevity of human life. Because three-fourths of the world we live in is made up of water, it is only understandable that proper precautions must be taken to assure the continued availability of our vastest and most precious natural resource. In this regard, many companies are now in the business of selling water treatment equipment designed to purify water and make it safe to use in any Whole House Water treatment.
When the word “equipment” comes up, most people immediately associate it with cost and instantly think it must be expensive. Water treatment equipment is no exception to this public perception. Many companies acknowledge the fact that equipment for the treatment of water can indeed be a little over what many consider reasonably priced. However, this doesn’t mean outright that a Whole House Water Treatment is nothing but a scam to make opportunists filthy rich. The truth of the matter is that water treatment equipment can actually help you save more money than you think, especially in the long run. More importantly, it can keep you healthy and greatly improve your quality of life. This article shows you how.
With a whole house water treatment, you can make sure that the water that runs through your entire house is clean. This is because the water treatment equipment you use has the ability to conduct a purification process that transforms dirty water into clean water. More than clean, your water actually becomes highly potable. In this case, you don’t have to buy bottled water for drinking purposes. With a Water Filter or water Softener, whichever you choose, you can drink your water straight up without having to worry about having an upset stomach afterwards because the whole house water treatment of your choice takes care of all the bacteria, viruses, fungi, algae, chemicals, and other contaminants that are harmful to your health. You can use the money – think hundreds of dollars in a year – meant to buy bottled water for other more practical and necessary expenses.
When said contaminants are out of the picture, so are the number of diseases that you can contract from drinking dirty, untreated water. Some of the medical conditions that a whole house water treatment can save you from include allergies, asthma, chemical contamination, and water poisoning. A water treatment system can help greatly reduce the risk of these unfortunate incidents and ensure that you use only clean and safe water for drinking, showering, and washing. Because a whole house water treatment can help maintain good water hygiene, it goes without saying that it can also keep you healthy. Your health is protected against illnesses that using untreated water can bring. It is also because of this that water treatment equipment can help you save money. With a water treatment system, you can be saved from unnecessary hospitalization and medical care, things that are not only taxing but also very expensive.
