Water supply pipes and valves under a sink

Keeping your system working

Every system needs upkeep, and your quote states what and when. Here is what each type involves, what to watch for, and how to ask for service.

What upkeep involves, by system type

Intervals depend on the exact equipment and your water, and are stated in your quote rather than guessed here.

  • Water softener

    Salt in the brine tank, regeneration that uses water and a drain, resin that ages, and valve settings that match your hardness and household.

    How softening works

  • Whole-home filter

    Sediment cartridges or media ahead of it, and carbon or catalytic carbon media that is replaced on a schedule.

    How whole-home filtration works

  • Under-sink reverse osmosis

    Pre-filters, the membrane, the post-filter, and sanitizing the storage tank.

Signs something needs attention

None of these is a diagnosis. They are the things people notice first.

  • Spots and scale coming back on glassware and fixtures.
  • Salt in the softener not going down.
  • A drop in water pressure after a filter.
  • A change in taste or smell.
  • Slow flow at the reverse osmosis tap.

What we service

We offer: maintenance visits, filter replacement, softener repair, and salt delivery.

For now, we service the systems we install. If yours was installed by someone else, tell us anyway and we'll say honestly whether we can help.

Service work is performed by expert installers working with us.

What to have ready

  • The system type, and the approximate age if you know it.
  • Any labels or manuals.
  • What changed, and when you first noticed it.
