Water Softener Installation & Repair in Mesa & Gilbert, AZ

What Are My Options for Treating Hard Water?

• Portable water filtration pitchers and bottles:
  Pros: These products use carbon filters, and they do a great job of removing unpleasant mineral flavors from drinking water. They’re inexpensive and require very little maintenance aside from rinsing and changing filters. Brita, PUR, Tersano and Clear2O are popular brands of portable water filters.
  Cons: The biggest downside to these, of course, is that they are strictly for drinking water and don’t help the hard water that goes through your appliances and plumbing.

• Reverse-osmosis filtration:
  Pros: This point-of-use (POU) water filtration system fits under the sink and uses a semipermeable membrane to filter particles from water. This is a great option if you use a lot of bottled water and want to reduce plastic bottle waste. Isley’s uses Ultima Water Treatment Systems, which can connect to your refrigerator’s water line, to provide great-tasting filtered water and ice cubes and reduce wear-and-tear on refrigerator lines. Ultima is also a great option if you have a business in Arizona that has hard water and treating the whole property isn’t an option.
  Cons: Because Ultima Reverse Osmosis is a point-of-use appliance, it doesn’t treat all of the water coming into your property.

• Whole-house water softener service:
  Pros: The whole-house water softener from Ultima protects all faucets, pipes and appliances that use water in your home. They can handle much larger volumes of water than point-of-use and portable units. Whole-house systems remove sediment, bad tastes and odors. Because the water is purified as it enters your property, the softened water protects your washer, dryer, irrigation system, pipes, fixtures, faucets and all water-using appliances.
  Cons: Whole-house water filtration systems cost more up front (for the unit and installation), but they offer long-term savings on wear-and-tear on your plumbing and appliances, as well as savings from not buying bottled water.

Ultima products come with a 5-year warranty, and all Isley’s installations come with 1-year warranties on parts and labor.
