Water softener systems
A water softener removes the calcium and magnesium that leave scale. We test your hardness first, write down the target, and retest after the install.
Hardness under 1 grain per gallon, guaranteed

Services
Complete water filtration and treatment for Front Range homes
Five things we install, each with a number it has to hit at your tap. Start with what you've noticed, or have us test first and tell you.
What we install
Five systems, five measured promises
The test decides which of these you actually need — and sometimes the honest answer is none of them.
Whole-home carbon filtration
Most Front Range utilities disinfect with chlorine or chloramine. Whole-home catalytic carbon takes it out before it reaches any tap or shower.
Total chlorine under 0.1 ppm, guaranteed

Reverse osmosis drinking water
Reverse osmosis under the kitchen sink gives you drinking and cooking water from its own faucet. We measure the difference in writing.
85% or more TDS reduction, guaranteed

Well water treatment systems
Every well is different, so we start with a certified lab test. The result tells us what to build and sets the targets we have to hit.

Certified lab water testing
Some things can't be measured at the tap. A certified lab test answers questions about lead, PFAS, bacteria and wells, and the cost is credited toward an install.

Your city decides more than your budget does
Hardness and disinfectant vary enormously inside this metro, so the honest answer changes with your ZIP code.
Hard water, published by the utility
A softener has real work to do
Thornton, Pueblo, Castle Rock, Aurora, Westminster. Thornton publishes about 11.7 grains per gallon on average, and up to 14.6 in summer.

Carbon is what removes it
Thornton, Castle Rock, Aurora, Westminster, Denver. Chloramine does not gas off in a pitcher the way free chlorine does, so a jug in the fridge won't fix the taste.
Whole house carbon filtrationSoft water, no softener needed
We won't sell you one here
Boulder, Longmont, Fort Collins. Longmont's own report says a water softener is not recommended. We agree, and we don't sell them there.

The same guarantee on all of them
Every system has a number it has to hit
Not a warranty on the tank. A measured result at your tap, agreed in writing before we install.
| System | What we measure | The number we have to hit |
|---|---|---|
| Water softener | Hardness by titration at a softened cold tap | Under 1 grain per gallon |
| Whole-home carbon | Total chlorine at the kitchen tap and a shower | Under 0.1 ppm |
| Reverse osmosis | TDS at your tap vs. the RO faucet | 85% or more reduction |
| Well water | Certified lab panel, before and after | Targets set by the lab result |
Miss the target and you get your money back. You get the written terms before you agree to anything.
