How a Job Runs

Four steps, and you know what is happening at each one.

  1. 1

    Your phone call

    Share what bugs you about your water, who lives with you and where your water heater or old equipment is located. Then we pick a time for your free water test.

  2. 2

    The free water test

    We check hardness and other readings at your tap and explain each result in plain terms. There is zero obligation, and if your water does not need treatment, we will tell you that.

  3. 3

    Your installed price

    We recommend a system that fits your results and your home, then give you the installed price with each part explained. You decide on your own time.

  4. 4

    Install day and walkthrough

    A partner plumber connects the system, sets the bypass, checks for leaks and programs the control head. We clean up the work area, then show you how to add salt or change filters before we leave.

Water Treatment for Your Home

We handle four kinds of work: water softeners, whole-home filtration, reverse osmosis drinking water and water testing. Licensed and insured partner plumbers do every install, and system tanks on qualifying systems come with a lifetime warranty. Installation is part of our water treatment systems, so the price you hear is for equipment set up and running. We have 3 five-star Google reviews so far and hope to add yours.

Why Neighbors Call Us First

Most people call because of spotty glasses, crusty faucets or water that tastes off. We tell you what is causing it and what will fix it, in plain words.

We test before we recommend

A free water test comes before any equipment talk. If your hardness is high, a softener makes sense. If the main complaint is taste or smell, a carbon filter may do more for you than a softener ever would.

Short answers on cost

We explain what moves the price on your job, like system size, plumbing access and whether your home already has a softener loop. You hear the installed price, not a box price with labor added later.

No upselling to a bigger system

A couple in a smaller home does not need the same tank as a family of six. We size the system to your water use and your test results, and we will say so when a simpler setup is enough.

Install included

Installation comes with the water treatment systems we sell. That keeps the quote simple and means one company answers for the system from the first test to the day it starts running.

We show you how to care for it

Before we leave, you learn how to add salt, when to change filters and what the control head settings mean. Owning the system should not feel like a puzzle.

About Our Company

We are a small water treatment company serving Cave Creek and the north Valley. Our work is simple: find out what is in your water, explain it without the sales pressure, and install a system that solves the problem you called about.

Hard water is common across this part of Arizona, and it shows up as white scale on shower glass, crusted aerators and water heaters that lose efficiency over time. Not every home needs the same answer, though. Some need a softener, some need a carbon filter for taste, and some only want better drinking water at the kitchen sink. We would rather give you the right small fix than the wrong big one.

What Goes Into Your Installed Price

Most quotes come down to two things: what your water test shows and how your home's plumbing is laid out. These are the items that raise or lower a price, and we go over each with you so the final figure makes sense.

Once we know your water and your plumbing, we give you the installed price by phone, and the free water test means we get it right the first time. We won't throw out a number before we know what your home calls for.

The system that fits
A softener, a whole-home carbon filter and an under-sink reverse osmosis unit are separate kinds of equipment. One may be all you need, or a softener plus drinking water filtration may work better for your home.
Your test results
The harder the water, the more resin a softener needs to run longer between regenerations. Chlorine taste, iron and sediment each call for their own filter media.
How many people and how much water
The number of people and bathrooms decides how much flow a system has to keep up with. Equipment that is too small loses pressure when two showers run together, so we size it to the way your household really uses water.
Your existing plumbing
Plenty of local homes came with a softener loop in the garage, which makes the install straightforward. If yours lacks one, the plumber cuts into the main line and adds bypass valves, which takes longer.
Distance to a drain and outlet
Softeners and reverse osmosis units both need a drain, and most softener heads also need an outlet close by. The farther away either one is, the more parts and labor the job takes.
Removing old equipment
When an old softener or filter is still hooked up, it gets disconnected and hauled out first. We include that in the quote, so nothing unexpected comes up on install day.

Common Questions

Does Cave Creek have hard water?
Much of the Phoenix area has hard water, and plenty of local homes show it as scale on fixtures and spots on dishes. Still, the level differs from house to house. The free water test gives you your own hardness number, so your decision rests on facts instead of guesswork.
Should I get a softener, a filter or both?
That comes down to what bothers you. A softener pulls out the minerals behind scale, but it won't change a chlorine taste or smell. A whole-home carbon filter takes care of taste and odor, and reverse osmosis delivers very clean water for drinking and cooking at a single tap. A softener with reverse osmosis at the kitchen sink suits many homes, though we only recommend it when your test backs it up.
How does the free water test work?
We take water from one of your taps, test it, and explain the results in everyday language. Hardness is usually part of it, along with other common readings tied to taste and scale. You owe nothing and are under no obligation to buy.
Does the price include installation?
It does. Installation comes with the water treatment systems we sell, so the installed price we quote by phone covers both the equipment and getting it hooked up and working in your home.
Is there a warranty on the system?
System tanks on qualifying systems carry a lifetime warranty. Whenever we recommend a system, we let you know if it qualifies, so you have the full picture before choosing.
How do I take care of a softener once it's in?
Mostly, you keep the brine tank supplied with salt. Most homes add salt every month or two, depending on hardness and water use. The control head handles regeneration on its own, and on install day we show you how to check the salt and change settings.
Does a softener reduce water pressure?
Not in a way you'd notice, as long as it is sized correctly. When pressure drops, the usual cause is a tank or valve too small for the home's flow, which is why we ask about bathrooms and household size first.
