What's in the bundle
Water softener
Removes the hardness minerals behind scale, spotty dishes, crusty faucets and dry skin and hair, and protects your water heater and appliances.
Whole-home filter
Carbon filtration for every tap and shower. It reduces chlorine taste and odor and other common contaminants.
RO drinking water
A dedicated faucet at your kitchen sink with reverse osmosis water for drinking, coffee and cooking, so you can skip the bottled water.
Well water systems
On a private well? We test your water and build a custom system for iron, manganese, sediment and more.

Common questions
What's included in the $3,000 price?
The water softener with brine tank, a whole-home carbon filter and an under-sink reverse osmosis drinking water system, plus standard installation by a licensed plumber. If your home needs anything beyond a standard install, we'll tell you the price in writing before any work is done.
Why is your price so much lower than the big companies?
Most dealers send a commissioned salesperson into your home and build that cost into the price. We do the consultation over the phone, work with licensed local plumbers, and keep overhead low.
Do I need a softener, a filter, or both?
A softener removes hardness minerals (scale and spots). A carbon filter improves taste and odor and reduces chlorine. Many homes benefit from both, and RO gives you the cleanest drinking water. We'll recommend only what your water needs.
I'm on a private well. Can you help?
Yes. Well water varies a lot, so we'll test your water first and design a system for it, such as iron, manganese or sediment treatment, then quote it.
How long does installation take?
Most installs take about half a day. Your water will be off for a few hours while the plumber connects the system.
What maintenance is involved?
Add softener salt every month or two, and replace filters and the RO membrane on the manufacturer's schedule. We'll show you how, and we can supply replacements.
