Water Softeners & Filtration in Tacoma: what is different here
From our base on Tacoma's southeast side, near Midland and Summit, we test and treat water in homes from the North End to Northeast Tacoma. Older Hilltop houses with galvanized pipe can show rust or a metallic taste, and the free water quality test shows whether that comes from the supply or the pipes.

Water Softeners & Filtration questions in Tacoma
It may be the pipes rather than the water. In older Tacoma homes with galvanized supply lines, rust and low flow often come from inside the pipe. Our free water quality test shows what is in your water, so you only buy a softener or filter if the results call for one.
Here is what is typical once we are on site. Water quality test: about 30 minutes. Softener install: 2 to 4 hours. Our base is here in Tacoma, so we are never far away. We confirm timing with you when you book.
A softener swaps out hardness minerals, like calcium, that cause scale. A filter traps or treats other things, such as chlorine taste, sediment or iron. Some homes need one, some need both and some need neither. Your water test shows which one fits your house.
