Once installed, can it be removed and taken to another house? We are renting a home, and wondering when we move, will we be able to take it with us?

The system is installed on the main water line. You will cut the main line in order to fit on the system. If you go into the installation with future removal in mind, and build a bypass, then it will make it more feasible to remove the system when you leave. When it comes to move you can run the water through the by-pass, uninstall the system, and then cap the ends which formerly fit into the system. Also, if you do the installation yourself rather than paying a plumber, it will also improve the feasibility of moving it. I do recommend that you understand your local plumbing codes before undertaking the project.

Yes, it is removable. In fact, when the item arrives, you are guided through installing it.

Not sure. When we bought ours we just had it sent to our destination rather than to our house. Don't know if that would work for you but just an idea

I think it would depend on your landlord. I rent and I can do what I want. I have not tried to take it off so I am not sure.

We haven't tried that. We have it installed and have been very pleased with it. It should be easy to disconnect the wires in the unit and take the unit, bring it back and hook it back up. That's what we plan to do if we move. We have had ours a long time.

Without this tool you won't be able to do that ... Even with a tool this is very tough. When we needed to move it, we decided to disassemble it just partially.

It's fairly easy to install and take down, maybe 10 minutes both ways top, so you could do that. But in general that seems like it would be a pain, I ended up leaving mine up! It looks pretty cool too :)

Okay..I just checked out my review and remembered the manual (if not updated) was not that straightforward. As long as you can understand the steps I wrote in my review, I think you can install yourself. ( I am not a professional neither...) Since the installation (more than a year ago), I feel it's been a great addition to our house.

Hi, it is my first year, I plan to take it down over winter, but not sure yet.Technically there is no need to do so. But I might want to move it in another place anyhow.

You can probably figure something out to lock it in..but it would take about 30 mins to uninstall. Had mine on about 2 years never had a problem.

Yes, I understand you can do that pretty easily. There are a couple youtube sites that go over installation and removal you should probably check out.

We take them off, but I guess you would not have to remove them. It is not difficult to remove, just unplu. Ours sets on a whellchair ramp to the house , the angle is pretty steep and we do not have to secure down. Best thingI have ever bought.

It looks like it can be removed. However, it doesn't really get in the way if they're not using it.

Hi!...You can put up and taken down as often as you like. Its very easy to install and remove. I love it!

I've never tried removing it, but I would imagine that you might also be able to simply avoid installing it during the initial setup. Hope that helps...

Yes, you can move it around or take it out. The base is sticky though you will need some effort to be able to pull it off. I was moving the first that I bought between two vehicles untill I bought the second.
