Water Treatment FAQ

Water Softener or Water Filtration
Many customers are unsure whether to choose a water softener or water filter for their homes.
Both a water softener and a water filter are methods of water treatment, but give you very different results. Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning ensures you are informed about and understand your water treatment options. We’ll give you the facts to make the correct water treatment decisions for water softeners or water filters.The difference between a Water softener vs Water filter
If you determine you would like to get a water softener or water filter in the Denver Metro Area, Colorado’s Front Range, Foothills, and Mountain Communities call 888-741-1711 or local 303-728-4899! The first step is a water test performed by one of our water specialists to identify contaminants and other problems in your water. This will help us to prescribe the right water treatment options. We provide a free water analysis by appointment, just call 888-741-1711 or local 303-728-4899.Water Softeners
Water softeners are used in homes that have hard water. The addition of softeners reduces the negative impact of hard water, such as scale buildup in pipes and appliances, water spots on dishes, excessive soap use, and reduced energy efficiency. Using ion exchange technology, hardness-causing minerals are switched out with sodium ions, eliminating irritating hard water problems. Water softeners can also remove iron and certain metals (e.g., lead, radium). Filters remove particulates and organics, but will not remove hardness. So, if you are deciding between a water softener or water filter and your problem is hard water, heavy metals, or iron you need a water softener!Water Filters
Filters remove undesirable particles from your water, such as sediment or iron. Essentially, water passes through a filter, which catches these harmful particles. So, if you’re choosing between a water softener or a water filter and your problem relates to particulate matter, a water filter may be the best option. Often water filters are paired with water softeners or other water treatment applications to ensure that particulate matter does not foul the ion exchange resin. The Hague WaterMax® is one of few such systems with an integrated filter eliminating an extra piece of maintenance-requiring equipment necessary for other manufacturers’ systems to work properly. The WaterMax® functions to both filter your water and soften it, so you’ll have everything you need in one piece of equipment. Plus, it’s easy to use and tracks your water consumption to help ensure you always have enough clean water when you need it.

Water Softeners 101
If you are currently deciding whether or not to invest in a water softener, it is a good idea to fully understand their purpose and how easy it is to perform water softener maintenance. Water softener treatment systems are used to reduce water hardness, reduce iron, and take out harmful contaminants like radium and lead. Each of these has its own “pain level” — some are aesthetic some are health hazards. A comprehensive, customizable water treatment system like the Hague WaterMax® is a simple and efficient solution. The ion exchange process in a Hague WaterMax® generally only requires the periodic addition of salt to the brine tank to keep your water clean and your WaterMax® running efficiently. Clean water — simple and efficient.Our Water Softener Services

Keeping Your Family Healthy and Hydrated in Colorado
Here are some tips to help you get serious about water while keeping your hydration habits fresh at the same time:
- Pour the water into an attractive glass or easy-to-use water bottle.
- Add ice or chill your water.
- Drink moderate-size portions spread over the course of a day, rather than trying to drink it all at one time.
- Make drinking water a habit – drinking water at the same time each day will make it much easier to remember.
- Make water more available – carry a BPA-free bottle with you at work or when you’re going to be away from home for long periods of time.

What is Hard Water?
Hard water contains a large number of dissolved minerals, such as calcium and magnesium. This is what causes dry skin, brittle hair, spots on your dishes, makes your laundry dull, and promotes soap scum and scale buildup. Not only that, hard water clogs your pipes – not good for your plumbing system! Hardness also makes your water heater work harder, costing you more money to heat your water and reducing the life of your water heater (as well as your dishwasher and washing machine.)
What is Soft Water?
Many people decide to use water-softening equipment to eliminate these issues. Soft water doesn’t contain these minerals, so the spotting, the scum, and scale, the damage to pipes, and the excessive use of (to name just a few): soaps/shampoo/conditioner/lotion/detergents/drink mixes, as well as dry itchy skin and brittle hair become problems of the past!

Will a Water Softener make a difference?
Absolutely! You’ll actually be able to see & feel the difference!
Not only will you need to use less soap (laundry detergent, dish soap, shampoos, etc.), but you will see a remarkable difference in the amount of soap suds and the clarity of the water softened water provides.
Even a minimal level of water hardness can have a significant impact on increased soap consumption (and other things that have to dissolve in your water.) If you are dealing with hard water in your home, it might be causing you many other problems—some obvious, others not so much.
Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning installs water softener treatment systems in the Denver Metro Area, Colorado’s Front Range, Foothills, and Mountain Communities to eliminate all the problems hard water can cause.

Cleaning the Water Residue from a Humidifier 101
As we said, humidifier cleaning is much easier when you have soft water. Hard water contains a lot of hardness-causing minerals which can coat your pipes, leave spots on your dishes, and make cleaning a humidifier difficult! Remember, softening water does not reduce the total amount of minerals present; ion exchange softening switches the calcium and magnesium hardness-causing minerals with sodium minerals. The most common humidifier in homes has an open pan, a small tube connected to a water source, and a float valve. When water evaporates, the float valve opens to permit more water to flow into the pan. Eventually, this type of unit fills with minerals deposited by the water. Using soft water will keep the mineral buildup down and the humidifier functioning properly. All you need to do when cleaning buildup off of a humidifier using soft water is flush the unit and then go over it with a soft brush. If you’d like to disinfect the unit, check your manual for instructions. It’s important to follow the directions provided for humidifier maintenance as you will probably be using bleach and you don’t want to harm the unit or make anyone sick.How to Make Humidifier Cleaning Easier
Soft water makes humidifier cleaning simple. The Hague WaterMax water treatment system can both soften your water and purify it. It’s easy to use and has an absolute brining system to ensure you never waste salt or water during regeneration. Plus, you can set it to regenerate on your schedule, whether that’s by the calendar, by consumption, or on-demand. Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning makes getting soft water easy.Contact Us to Get Your Water Treatment System

Water Softeners & Lawn Maintenance
For outdoor use on lawns or gardens, using softened water is wasteful. Depending on how much salt you need to use to reduce the mineral content of your water, the sodium content after softening may be great enough to retard plant growth and harm grass. This is especially true in climates where rainfall is scarce. Areas that receive regular rain are not as sensitive to sodium accumulation because the rainfall alleviates the sodium from the ground. Ask the dealer who is installing your water softener about a bypass for lawn and garden faucets as well as a faucet for untreated water.Water Softeners & Soap
Having a water softener also affects how you clean. Soft water makes a small amount of soap have the same cleaning effect as a large amount, so we suggest you start by using one-quarter of the product recommendation and go from there. This includes dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent as well as shampoo and conditioner. You don’t want to waste soap or have to spend a long time trying to wash it away!Water Softeners & Humidifiers
If you have a humidifier, using softened water makes cleaning your unit much more manageable! Hard water creates mineral buildup on appliances like humidifiers that can make them difficult to clean. With soft water, cleaning your humidifier is much simpler. Usually, it takes either flushing out the unit or using a soft brush to remove any minor buildup. So you can avoid scrubbing for hours just to get rid of buildup by using a water softener – what’s not to like?Water Softeners & Your Bathroom
Can’t stand that grimy buildup on your shower curtain? A water softener will help to eliminate it! Soft water doesn’t contain the hardness-causing minerals that are present in hard water, so you don’t get that irritating buildup in your shower. This makes cleaning much easier! Instead of spending hours scrubbing the tub and shower curtain, just a little cleaning power could be all it takes!Get a Water Softener Along The Front Range

POU Water Treatment Products
Point-of-use (POU) water filtration products treat only the water intended for direct consumption, e.g., water coming straight from the tap–typically the water you drink and cook with. Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning carries Water Quality Association Gold Seal Certified Reverse Osmosis drinking water purification systems. Reverse osmosis is a “Final Barrier” technology–the last step of purification to prevent the ingestion of contaminants. Our systems fit conveniently beneath your sink with a spigot at the countertop. We can also hook this 4-stage reverse osmosis system up to your ice maker or water dispensing refrigerator. Hague’s POU reverse osmosis systems come with the same 25-year manufacturer’s limited warranty as our WaterMax® line.POE Water Treatment Products
Point-of-entry (POE) products are typically installed where your water first enters your home, treating it before it moves through your pipes. The Hague WaterMax®’s comprehensive water treatment system is a POE system. The Hague WaterMax® can be customized to address your specific water quality concerns. It’s easy to use-almost maintenance-free — and comes with a 25-year manufacturer’s limited warranty. There is a built-in sediment filter to reduce solids in your water. The WaterMax® is tremendously efficient and uses a patented Absolute Brining™ system that ensures you never waste salt or water during regeneration–the WaterMax® will use only the amount of salt necessary to regenerate the resin bed. Speaking of regeneration – the WaterMax® regenerates in as little as 12 minutes, using as few as 14 gallons of water! Plus, you have complete control over your regeneration schedule. Whether you want regeneration on demand, by consumption, or by the calendar, you can make the Hague WaterMax® match your schedule and needs!

Drinking Water Warnings
It is hard to watch the news or read a newspaper (you know, that thing you used to read at breakfast before the internet and laptops) or a magazine without seeing something alarming about our water. In certain parts of Colorado Springs and Fountain, CO chemicals have been found in the water that are indisputably harmful to humans, precipitating water utilities to hand out bottled water and change water sources. There have been Drinking Water Advisories for lead in Denver and surrounding areas where Brita pitchers have been issued to use for drinking water due to lead service lines, and in Washington, DC which is also a municipal water system instructing residents and businesses not to drink the water! In Time magazine, there was a lengthy article regarding pharmaceuticals, prescription drugs, that were in the water supplies. And we have all heard about the tragic lead levels in Flint, Michigan’s water. Clearly, we cannot simply rely on the powers that be to make sure our water supplies, municipal (city) or private wells, are both safe and desirable. Just because it won’t make you sick doesn’t mean you necessarily want to drink it.Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment
That’s where water treatment, and specifically reverse osmosis, can help. Reverse Osmosis, or RO, when used in conjunction with a whole-house (a point-of-entry treatment system), or on its own for some applications, can ensure that your water is both safe and enjoyable to drink and use throughout your home or business.RO Water Filtration
The Reverse Osmosis process uses filtration and a semi-porous membrane to filter out the very smallest dissolved matter and particles that can impair water quality. It is far more effective than common filtration (like a sediment or carbon filter you can acquire at a grocery or hardware store), removing matter as small as some bacteria. Examples of things that RO will remove include lead and other metals, pharmaceuticals, asbestos, radium, uranium, pesticides, benzene, PCBs, PFCs, nitrates, chromium, and arsenic. RO units will reduce the total dissolved solids (TDS — everything in your water that is NOT water) in your water by 90% to 99%. At the end of the RO process, you will be drinking and cooking with the finest — i.e., highest purity and quality — water that you can get. There is no reason to just hope for the best when it comes to your water. We will help you make sure you are getting the best! We have a variety of systems available to give you Reverse Osmosis water where you drink the water (POU) or throughout your home or business (POE). Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning has The Right H2O Solution for all your residential and commercial needs.FREE Consultation on Your Water and Our Water Treatment Systems!

It’s important to consider all your options to ensure you get the best system for your home or business. If you are thinking about getting a water treatment solution in the Denver Metro Area, Colorado’s Front Range, Foothills, and Mountain Communities, Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning is the company for you. We can educate you about what to look for before you buy to ensure you are only getting a high-quality unit. Take a look at the following factors you should keep in mind when purchasing a water treatment solution.
Identify Contaminants
A very important step is to identify the contaminants in your water to ensure the water treatment solution you choose can eliminate them. In Colorado well water there can be many contaminants – calcium, radon, uranium, radium, barium, arsenic, and magnesium, to name a few—and they frequently show up together. There is also iron, which can be challenging to remove, for some. Many generic water softeners will not remove iron for long — always ask to see the manufacturer’s specifications. Placing a conventional water softener in heavy iron conditions drastically reduces the life expectancy of the unit by iron fouling of the ion exchange media. Even from the initial installation these units rarely reach the desired reduction of iron to below 0.3 ppm (again — always ask to see the manufacturer’s specifications that pertain to iron removal.) The water treatment solutions from Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning will address these issues. Our equipment and technicians are at the forefront in the treatment of the most severe iron problems, and because the WaterMax® is customizable, we are able to configure it to filter or otherwise remove ferric iron, iron algae, and iron bacteria, and protect the resin to remove the ferrous iron, calcium, and radium. The unit also has built-in sediment filtration and a bacteriostat to inhibit bacteria growth.Identify Water Use, Production & Pressure
The amount of water used, water flow, and water pressure are major factors in determining the proper water treatment solution. Household size may influence consumption, but different families have different needs and require different capacities. Well water production and pump capacity are very important in determining if the water treatment system will be able to adequately regenerate (clean) itself. A water treatment consultant from Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning will come to your home to perform certain FREE water tests that include measuring your water pressure and flow rate so you will get a clear picture of your water situation — and learn how to improve it.

You might have heard the rumor that water softener discharge can damage your septic tank. Well, that just isn’t true! According to the Water Quality Association (WQA), water softener discharges do not pose a problem to septic systems or to the leach field. Studies have shown that water softener discharge has no negative effect on the septic drain field’s soil percolation, and could actually improve soil percolation, particularly in fine-textured soils.

How a Water Softener System Works
A water softening system reduces the concentration of hardness-causing dissolved minerals in your water that accompany hard water problems such as spots on dishes, scale buildup, and more. Hard water makes cleaning more difficult and frustrating. A water softener system uses salt to reduce these hardness-causing minerals and eliminate the problems that come with them. All they require is a regular addition of salt to ensure the system has enough to make your water to your exact specifications. You can get a whole-house water softener system so all the water that enters your home is to your liking! The Hague WaterMax® and other Hague systems are very low-maintenance units, so don’t avoid them if you’re worried about adding another stress to your life. They can make a real difference in your home, and you can get one from Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning!Our Water Softener System

Hard Water Composition
The main difference between hard water and soft water is that the former has a high content of hardness-causing dissolved minerals. The most common hardness-causing minerals are calcium and magnesium. According to the Water Quality Association (WQA), hard water is water that contains dissolved hardness minerals above 1 gpg (grains per gallon, or 17.1 ppm or mg/l). Relative levels of hardness have been established as: Soft Water – less than 1 gpg Slightly hard – 1 to 3.5 gpg Moderately hard – 3.5 to 7 gpg Hard – 7 to 10.5 gpg Very Hard – 10.5 and higher gpg Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning can remove the hardness from your water regardless of the level of hardness present. We can GUARANTEE zero grain hard water!The Effects of Hard Water
So, why get a water softener to remove hardness from your water? Hard water can be very damaging to your plumbing system, clothing, appliances, and to your bank account. Hard water spots your glasses and dishes, causes laundry to appear dull and to deteriorate more quickly, and causes soap scum and scale buildup, making cleaning a chore. Hardness acts like cholesterol in the water system by clogging pipes and showerheads. It also coats the heating elements in certain appliances causing severely reducing energy efficiency and costing you money! Hardness can also cause you to use up to 75% more soap, dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent as well as shampoo and conditioner, drink mixes, etc. than necessary — again costing you money!Hard Water Treatment in Colorado

In reaching a choice of a water treatment system, there are a few important questions you should ask. Rocky Mountain Water Conditioning provides effective solutions for home water treatment in the Denver Metro Area, Colorado’s Front Range, Foothills, and Mountain Communities. We know what questions you need to ask to ensure you are getting the right home water treatment system.
15 Home Water Treatment Questions to Ask
-
Make sure you ask your potential home water treatment company the following questions: (These questions will help to ensure you are getting a quality system from a reputable company to address problems specific to your water.)
-
Is my water quality representative trained and certified? It’s extremely important to verify that the water quality representative you are dealing with has been properly trained and certified. Ask the representative if you can see his/her WQA certification card and ask if their company is a member of the Water Quality Association (WQA).
-
Is installation of the home water treatment system included in the price? This is important to know since installation could make the price much more than you had anticipated!
-
Does installation include a hard plumbed bypass; will there be an untreated outside hose bib to water the lawn? If the installation doesn’t include either of these, you may need to add them later — at additional cost.
-
Does the company offer leasing options and do you have an option-to-buy provision? This is an economical solution to get a home water treatment system in a way that is affordable for you.
-
Does the dealer that you have selected have established business in the area? Will their service team be able to take care of you if you have problems? Ask friends and family about their experiences with the company to get an idea of their reputation. Check the Better Business Bureau, Service Magic, and similar consumer websites for information regarding the company.
-
Does the company have customer references available? A reputable dealer should be able to provide references. You can also look for customer testimonials on the dealer’s website.
-
Will a representative come out and perform a water test to determine the proper equipment for your water? This is essential to ensure you are getting the right home water system to meet your needs. Without certain water tests, you are just guessing and hoping for the best.
-
Did the representative establish your well pump production to ensure the unit will work properly? There’s no point in installing equipment that won’t work, so make sure all the important measurements have been taken.
-
If you are treating your water for health-related reasons, is the representative State-certified to draw samples for testing at a State-certified lab? Make sure your water is being tested by qualified professionals so you can be confident the problems will be treated properly.
-
Did the representative answer all questions regarding the design, function, and cost of the equipment? If you have any questions you must ask. If your questions go unanswered or can’t be specifically answered that should send up a red flag.
-
Does the dealer offer service on their water treatment systems; do they provide follow-ups on routine maintenance? It’s nice to stick with a company you trust for installation, repairs, and beyond.
-
Does the equipment carry a specific written warranty? Warranties will vary by equipment and manufacturer, so make sure to ask about the warranty on the home water treatment unit you are considering.
-
Do the equipment specifications address the water quality issues that have been identified? Compare the results of any tests to the manufacturer’s specifications. If the level of a certain contaminant exceeds that in the specifications you should have little confidence the equipment will solve your problems or address your concerns.
-
Will the dealer provide you with a copy of the warranty and explain its details? Don’t ignore the fine print! A “lifetime warranty” might not be what you expect!
Do YOU drink water daily?
Water constitutes 85% of the body and is critical in regulating all body organs and temperature, dissolving solids, and moving nutrients throughout the body. Because water is naturally low in sodium, has no fat, cholesterol, or caffeine, and isn’t flushed straight through the body like other beverages, it’s the natural solution to help reach your body’s daily fluid quota. So drink water, a lot!
The National Academy of Medicine advises that we consume roughly 3 liters (about 13 cups) of daily beverages. This varies by activity level, health circumstances (including pregnancy), and age.
The benefits of drinking lots of water
Drinking water has a number of benefits for the body. Some of the main benefits of drinking water daily include:- Maintaining proper hydration. Water makes up a large portion of the human body, and it is essential for maintaining proper hydration. Dehydration can lead to a number of symptoms, including fatigue, headache, and dry mouth.
- Regulating body temperature. Water helps to regulate body temperature by dissipating heat through sweating.
- Flushing out toxins. Water helps to flush out toxins and waste products from the body, which is important for maintaining good health and preventing illness.

- Boosting skin health. Water can help to keep the skin hydrated and healthy, which can help to prevent dryness and keep the skin looking youthful.
- Improving mental clarity and focus. Adequate hydration can help to improve mental clarity and focus, as well as physical performance.
