What’s in Your Water (Around Here)

City water around the West Metro is very hard; many wells have high iron. Common issues we solve: chlorine taste/odor, sediment, iron & manganese staining, sulfur/“rotten egg” odor, lead, arsenic, nitrates, PFAS/PFOS, and low pH concerns. We’ll start with a Free Water Test and build the simplest plan that fits your home.

Filtration Solutions We Install & Service

We match equipment to your results—not brand labels.

Whole-Home
Carbon Filtration

Reduces chlorine/taste/odor at every tap for better showers, laundry, and cooking.

Sediment
Filtration

Cartridge or self-cleaning options to catch sand, silt, and rust before they reach fixtures.

Iron & Manganese
Strategies

Oxidation + media approaches to tackle orange/brown (iron) and black/gray (manganese) staining—often paired with softening.

Point-of-Use Drinking
Water (RO & Tankless RO)

Crisp, great-tasting water at the kitchen; selective reduction of TDS and problem constituents (e.g., lead, arsenic, nitrates) when configured appropriately.

Specialty Media
(Case-by-Case)

For PFAS/PFOS, lead, arsenic, nitrates/nitrites, low pH, chloramine, or tannins—designed to verified test results.

Water Softeners
(as a companion)

Not a filter, but key for hardness (scale). Many homes run carbon + softener, then RO at the kitchen.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Water Filtration

Will a softener fix taste and odor?

A softener removes hardness (scale). For taste/odor (chlorine, sulfur), you need filtration. Many homes use both.

If you want better showers/laundry and to protect fixtures, go whole-home. For the best drinking water, add RO at the kitchen.

Yes. We maintain, repair, and upgrade most system types—even if we didn’t install them.

For specific concerns (e.g., lead, arsenic, PFAS, nitrates), we may recommend lab confirmation and then design to those results.
