Identify the water problem
Treat the issue that matters instead of selling unnecessary equipment.
Serving the Denver metro
Better water starts with the right information.
We help Colorado homeowners evaluate whole-home filtration, softening, and drinking-water options using utility data, household demand, and the problems they actually want to solve.
✓Location-aware guidance
✓Preliminary sizing logic
✓Verification before ordering
Size for the household
Occupants, bathrooms, and simultaneous demand affect performance.
Verify before ordering
Water chemistry, pressure, flow, drain, and space still need confirmation.
Treatment options
Match the system to the water—not the other way around.
Whole-home treatment addresses water entering the house. Point-of-use systems may make sense when the primary concern is drinking or cooking water.
Whole-home carbon filtration
Intended for taste, odor, and disinfectant reduction when the media, service flow, and certification match the actual water conditions.
Water softening
Useful when measured hardness is contributing to scale, spotting, soap inefficiency, or appliance concerns.
Reverse osmosis drinking water
Point-of-use treatment for customers who want an additional barrier for drinking and cooking water.
Private-well treatment
Requires certified lab results and property-specific hydraulic review rather than a municipal utility average.
Local planning data
Water hardness varies across the Front Range.
These values are useful for initial planning only. Final equipment selection should rely on the service address, actual utility, and onsite test.
| Water system | Planning hardness | General interpretation | Initial sales approach |
|---|---|---|---|
| Denver Water | Approximately 5.2 GPG | Soft to moderately hard | Test before recommending a softener |
| Aurora Water | Approximately 8.0 GPG | Moderately hard to hard | Softening is often more relevant |
| Westminster Water | Approximately 7.4 GPG | Moderately hard to hard | Evaluate scale concerns and verify onsite |
| Private well | Property-specific | Cannot be assumed | Laboratory testing required |
Planning figures are not final engineering measurements. One grain per gallon is approximately 17.1 mg/L as calcium carbonate.
Preliminary water assessment
Tell us about the home, the water source, and the problem.
This tool estimates indoor volume, likely service-flow target, and treatment categories worth evaluating.

From water concern to verified solution.
Discovery
Identify the water provider, household needs, and primary concerns.
Testing
Measure relevant water characteristics and review utility or laboratory data.
Verification
Confirm pressure, available flow, plumbing size, drain, power, and installation space.
Installation
Approve final equipment and installation scope before the system is ordered.
Common questions
Straight answers about home water treatment.
Does every Denver home need a softener?
No. Denver’s water is generally softer than water in several nearby
communities. Hardness should be measured at the property and evaluated
against actual scale or spotting concerns.
Is a whole-home filter the same as a softener?
No. Carbon filtration and softening solve different problems. Some homes
may benefit from one system, both systems, or neither.
Can you size a system over the phone?
A call can identify a preliminary equipment category and likely flow target,
but final selection requires water testing and installation verification.
What about lead, PFAS, or other health concerns?
Health-related concerns require appropriate testing and equipment certified
for the specific reduction claim being discussed.
Do private wells require different treatment?
Yes. Private-well treatment should be based on certified laboratory analysis
and the property’s available flow rather than utility averages.
