Your water supply enters the home through the main water line.

Water treatment made simple
Filtration, softening, and reverse osmosis solve different problems. Learn how they work together and choose what your home needs.
See My EstimateHow your water gets better
See how filtration, softening, and reverse osmosis improve the water you use throughout your home.
Your water supply enters the home through the main water line.
These filters reduce visible sediment, chlorine taste, and common odors as water moves through your home.
The softener reduces hardness minerals that leave scale and spots.
An optional system under the kitchen sink filters water for drinking, cooking, and filling bottles.
Hard water contains dissolved calcium and magnesium. Those minerals leave scale and spots, can reduce lather and leave soap residue, and may wear down fixtures and appliances over time.
Signs of hard water in Phoenix homes
Carbon filtration improves taste and odor. A softener reduces hardness and scale. Many homes benefit from both because each one solves a different problem.
Compare Water Treatment SystemsThese are general estimates. Follow the care guide provided with your equipment.
Sediment prefilter
Every 3 to 6 months
Replace sooner if sediment reduces water pressure
Carbon media
About 5 to 10 years
Timing depends on water use and local chlorine or chloramine levels
Softener salt
Check monthly
Refill before the salt level drops below the water line
Reverse osmosis filters
Every 6 to 12 months
The membrane often lasts longer with proper care
Water use, local water conditions, and equipment design can change these intervals.
