I'd like someone with expertise to make sure it's working right, set it up, and tells us what we need to do to keep it going properly. Any recommendations for a plumber or handyman who can do small plumbing jobs?
Re: glass and laundry tub. I expect you can find a screen designed to fit the drain. It is a low cost item. Beware your laundry tub is probably made of fiberglass. Glass will scratch it.

Water softener not turned on? I would look for a name and model on the item. Then look on the internet for INSTRUCTIONS. I expect from the post, you bought a resale. If, it was shut off I expect there is a reason. Leaks? Destroying plants etc.
