When selecting the ideal location for installing a new water softener, it is best to install it near the water heater in your home that you will find the easiest place to tie the new unit into the existing Plumbing system.
The ideal location, near the water heater is typically in the utility room, garage, or basement of your home.
Remember that your water softening system will also need to be within easy access range of both an electrical receptacle capable of handing the manufacturer specified amperage, and a utility sink or floor drain.

Can you get orange stains on your clothes after washing them from a water softener?
Not usually but if the water softener's resin is leaking into the water supply - to your sink and washing machine - that could explain the orange stains because some water softener resins are orange in color. If the resin vessel is cracked the water softener is only fit for scrapping. It is not usually economic to get a water softener repaired by fitting a new resin vessel as other parts will also be worn out. If you buy a brand new one it will normally come with at least one year's warranty. In an older home sometimes rust from non-copper plumbing will stain your washing.
