Water softeners & RO systems in Phoenix

Phoenix water is genuinely hard, and it’s why fixtures scale, glassware spots, and water heaters die early. A softener install starts at $489 if you supply the unit; a new 48k softener installed is $3,189.

You’re here because…

  • White scale on faucets, shower doors, and glassware
  • Soap and shampoo that won’t lather
  • Skin and hair feeling dry after every shower
  • Water heater failing sooner than it should
  • Tap water that tastes metallic or of chlorine
  • An existing softener or RO system that’s stopped working

How the job goes

  1. 01

    Work out what you actually need

    Softener for scale throughout the house. RO at the kitchen tap for taste. Plenty of homes want both — that’s the whole-home package.

  2. 02

    Check what’s already plumbed

    Many Phoenix houses have a softener loop in the garage already. If yours does, the install is simpler and cheaper.

  3. 03

    Install and commission

    Softener install is $489 with your unit, $3,189 for a new 48k system. A 5-stage RO with faucet is $529.

  4. 04

    Test and hand over

    Pressurize, check every joint, and show you how to maintain it so it lasts.

Questions we get

Do I really need a softener in Phoenix?

Our water is among the hardest in the country. Hardness is what scales your fixtures, spots your glass, and shortens water heater life. A softener isn’t a luxury here so much as maintenance for everything else that touches water.

What’s the difference between a softener and an RO system?

A softener treats the whole house and deals with hardness — scale, spotting, soap that won’t lather. An RO system treats drinking water at one tap and deals with taste and dissolved solids. They solve different problems, which is why a lot of homes end up with both.

How much does the whole thing cost?

Installing a softener you supply is $489. A new 48k softener installed is $3,189. A new 5-stage RO system with faucet is $529, or $229 to install one you supply. The whole-home package — 48k softener, RO system, and sediment filter — is $3,889.

My RO system stopped producing water.

Usually the filters or the membrane. A full filter change including the membrane is $179. If the tank has lost its charge, that’s a separate fix — we’ll tell you which it is.

Will a softener fix the taste of my water?

Not really. Softening addresses hardness minerals, not taste. If taste is the complaint, you want RO at the drinking tap — that’s the $529 system, or $189 for a new RO faucet if the rest of your system is fine.
