Does the softener have a sticker label attached from the installer?

The resident softener expert hasn't been around since late last year.

Off the top of my head - figure 75 gallons per day, per person?

That's just about right. The meter does one revolution in a little
more than a day. There are about 18 people using the water, so your
estimate predicts 1350 gallons. So, 1550 or 1600 is about right. I
just would like to know which it is. Thanks.
