Water Treatment in Castle Rock
Making Water Better in Castle Rock and Larkspur
Not all water is created equal. If you know someone with a well—or have water that tastes like a pool—you’ve experienced that first hand. The impacts of low-quality water are often insidious, rarely noticed until you shower or drink somewhere else. Then, the issues become difficult to ignore.

Our plumbers have been serving the Castle Rock area for 27 years. This experience allows us to craft a solution for almost any water quality problem.
What’s in My Water?
For those on public water systems, water is collected, filtered to remove large particulates, and then treated for bacteria and parasites. It’s then propelled through the city’s plumbing system into your home. For those on a well, the water is simply pulled into your faucets and tanks via a well pump. Regardless of how you get your water in Castle Rock, this purification process introduces a number of contaminants into your water supply. These include:

Water Treatment FAQs
How can I tell if I have hard water?
A lot of homeowners aren't sure they have water, especially if they don't live on a well. Luckily, there's one surefire way to tell. You’ll see scale buildup on water heaters and other plumbing fixtures. You’ll also find soap deposits on dishes and soap scum in your toilet or your bathtub.
What makes water hard in Castle Rock?
Water picks up gases and impurities as it goes through the water cycle. It can pick it up in the air or from the soil it falls into. Some of these items (including calcium and gypsum) are known as hard minerals. When you have disproportionate amounts of these minerals, your water is deemed hard. If softening it is what you want, reach out to our water softening experts in Castle Rock.
What is soft water?
Soft water is water that is free of hard chemicals like iron and calcium. To take water from hard to soft, water softeners replace those unwanted chemicals with sodium or potassium. This results in less soap scum and a better occupant experience.
Why do I feel slippery after showering in soft water?
The slickness you can feel is your natural body oils. Because it has a hard time removing residue from soap residue, hard water often leaves your body with a layer of fine soap scum. Eventually, you’ll get used to how your skin feels without that extra layer of chemicals on it.
What type of salt should I use in my water softener?
First and foremost, don't use rock salt. It isn't designed for softener use. While we recommend using solar or block salts, any type of clean salt can be utilized. Because the cleaners in rust-cleaning salt can damage equipment, we advise avoiding any brands that advertise themselves as a rust-buster. The acids in this type of salt don't always play well with others.
Should I be worried about salt in my water?
There are about 75 mgs of salt in one quart of softened water; this is less sodium than what’s found in your typical slice of bread. If your diet is very strict, consider using a reverse osmosis system in place of a traditional water softener.
Why do my sinks and fixtures turn yellow?
Tired of an unsightly yellow ring around your toilet or faucet? Well, first, this won't harm you & me even if it is unsightly. This staining is probably caused by an overabundance of iron in your water. There are cleaners designed to remove the yellowing. The best permanent solution, however, is installing a new water softener in Castle Rock.
Why are there brown stains on my dishwasher?
Black or brown stains in your dishwasher are often the result of manganese buildup. Because the dishwasher heats, mixes, and agitates, it makes a perfect oxidizer. If left untreated, an overabundance of manganese can stain your clothes.
Why are there blue-green stains in my sink?
If you notice a lot of bluish-green stains in your sink, your water might be acidic. This leads to it leaching metal from your piping and plumbing fixtures. When left untreated, this can lead to leaks in your copper piping.

Why does my water smell like rotten eggs?
Hydrogen sulfide buildup in your well or pipes is often to blame for this water problem. Though an abundance of sulfite isn’t a health hazard, it can leave an unpleasant taste in your water and corrode some pipes.
What is nitrate?
Nitrate is a naturally occurring substance that forms in the soil when oxygen and nitrogen combine. While perfectly fine in small amounts, an overabundance of nitrate can pollute groundwater.
Where does nitrate come from?
You might be wondering where all these nasty contaminants come from. Are you doing something wrong? Not usually. Livestock waste, fertilizers, and septic run-off are the most common causes of nitrogen in the soil.
Are there any side effects to consuming nitrate?
For most people, there’s no harm in consuming small amounts of nitrate. But things are different for infants. Nitrate makes it harder for their blood to transport oxygen. This can lead to a dangerous condition known as “blue baby syndrome.” For that reason, pregnant women and young children should avoid consuming nitrate-laden water.
My water in Castle Rock tastes bad, but it tested fine. What’s going on?
Water problems are split into two categories:
- Primary: Potentially dangerous things that can affect one’s health.
- Aesthetic: Things that alter the look, smell, or taste of water.
In most cases, testing strips are only looking for primary issues. To handle the aesthetic issues, you'll want to reach out to someone who does comprehensive water testing.
Why does my drinking water look cloudy?
There are few things as beautiful as a crystal clear glass of water. Unfortunately, not everyone in Castle Rock gets to experience this first hand. A lot of homes have water that's best described as "foggy."This cloudiness is often caused by tiny air bubbles in the water. It will dissipate if you let the water sit and poses no danger to your health.
