Water Conditioning
Water conditioning in Colorado Springs removes substances that change the taste or smell of your water. We install a wide variety of water conditioning systems, and we’ll help you choose the one that works best based on what you want to remove and how your water tests.
Water Filtration
Big Cat Plumbing, Heating & Cooling offers whole house and under sink water filtration systems in Colorado Springs that remove hardness, improve taste, and eliminate odor from your drinking water. We install several different reverse osmosis systems tailored to your specific water conditions and needs, giving you the best tasting and safest water possible.
Colorado Springs Reverse Osmosis
When it comes to removing contaminants efficiently, reverse osmosis takes center stage. This method eliminates 90% to 99% of impurities in your water. The structure of a reverse osmosis filter allows it to reject virtually all particles, bacteria, and organics. This technology is used in prominent water bottling plants, reinforcing its effectiveness for your Colorado Springs home.
Colorado Springs Water Softening
For clean, pure drinking water flowing from your faucets, one vital tool stands out: the water softener. This specialized filter uses plastic beads to remove the calcium and magnesium present in hard water. Removing these minerals makes a huge difference in your water quality, especially if you’re dealing with hard water problems common throughout Colorado Springs.
Through Novo, we offer high efficiency water softeners in Colorado Springs across several price ranges, twin tank water softeners for larger homes and businesses, systems for industrial use, and several specialty systems designed for unique water challenges.
Book OnlineThe Benefits of Water Treatment
Installing a home water treatment system transforms more than just the taste of your tap water. Here are some of the biggest advantages our Colorado Springs customers enjoy:
- Reduced Hard Water Problems: Eliminate scale on dishes, soap scum in showers, and stiff laundry. Treatment removes the minerals that cause buildup, saving you time on cleaning and helping appliances last longer.
- Better for Skin and Hair: Hard or impure water can leave skin dry and hair dull. Treated water feels softer, helping your skin, hair, and even clothing look and feel healthier.
- Healthier Drinking Water: Treatment reduces impurities that may aggravate certain health conditions and gives your family safe, dependable water for drinking, cooking, and bathing throughout your Colorado Springs home.
- Improved Taste and Smell: Treated water tastes crisp and fresh, free of metallic or chlorine notes. It also makes coffee, tea, and food taste noticeably better.
- Save Money and Cut Plastic Waste: With clean water on tap, there’s no need for bottled water. That means lower costs, fewer plastic bottles in landfills, and less exposure to microplastics often found in bottled water.
- Longer-Lasting Plumbing and Appliances: Treatment helps protect water heaters, dishwashers, and pipes from scale buildup, preventing costly repairs and extending their lifespan significantly.
