Reviews from your neighbors in Cave Creek

This company has done excellent job after we identified a problem. Our “Clear Water Concepts” water softener system was installed in the garage about less than a year ago. The manger, office assistant, and the technician of “Clear Water Concepts” have been very cooperative and worked skillfully to mitigate the water line connection issues. In view of my experience with the company personnel, I would recommend strongly the Clear Water Concepts to those who have been thinking to get a water softener unit in their home. We love the soft water that comes through our newly installed Clear Water system.

I used Clearwater Concepts to install my soft water and alkaline reverse osmosis system in my home in Cave Creek and for the annual service and filter replacements the last two years. This time Troy Greenwood was out technician and not only was he exactly on time, but he completed the work quickly, was friendly, and cleared his work space without my help and cleaned up afterward. Everything you want from a service business you let into your home. Highly recommend them.

I purchased Clear Water Concepts 3 yrs ago after my Rheem water softener flooded my home. Clear Water came out and installed a reliable water softener an RO unit with alkalizer and it works great. Thomas Trujillo comes out for annual maintenance checks and filter replacement and its worry free. Thomas is very professional, answers your questions and very meticulous in his work.

We have Clear Water Concepts come every year to replace our RO filters and give our Softener a check up. Ari did a great job, he was extremely thorough and efficient and happy to answer questions. He was on time, professional, courteous, and respectful of my home making sure the area was clean and dry and the lines under the sink neatly organized. They make the annual maintenance easy!

This is the second time I utilized Clear Water Concepts for water treatment. Their pricing is fair, the systems are high quality, and technicians are very professional and do a great job. They also have a good warranty program. My recent install was done by Zachary who was very professional and did a great installation. I highly recommend Clear Water concepts for your water treatment needs. This is now my third time utilizing Clear Water Concepts. I had them install a new upgraded Reverse Osmosis System for drinking water and ice maker. Zachary again did the installation and did a great job. I will once again highly recommend Clearwater Concepts for your water treatment needs.

Clear Water Concepts was the best company to work with. Joshua responded promptly to my quote request and provided estimates on the phone. The old system (also from Clear Water) was removed and the new system delivered and installed just 3 days after I agreed to the quote. The price paid matched the quote. No additional charges were added. Zachary, the technician arrived on time was very professional and quickly installed the system. He took the time to explain everything to me. I highly recommended this company. Joanne Wallace - Tatum Ranch

Common questions about water softeners in Cave Creek

How hard is the water in Cave Creek?

Cave Creek water hardness averages 14-16 GPG, sourced from colorado river water via the cap canal. This is significantly harder than the national average of 6 GPG, meaning scale buildup, dry skin, and appliance damage are common without treatment.

Do you serve Cave Creek?

Yes — Cave Creek is within our Phoenix metro service area. Our nearest location is in Tempe. We offer free in-home water testing and same-week installation in most cases.

How much does a water softener cost in Cave Creek?

Our EcoFlow water softeners start at $1,895 for a 32K grain system. Most Cave Creek homes need a 48K ($2,295) or 64K ($2,695) grain system depending on household size. All prices include professional installation and a lifetime tank warranty. 0% APR financing is available for 9 months.

How long does water softener installation take in Cave Creek?

Most Cave Creek installations are finished in a single visit — a few hours when the home already has a softener loop, longer when we need to run a new line. We confirm the scope during your free in-home water test so there are no surprises on install day.

Does my Cave Creek home need a softener loop?

Many newer Cave Creek homes are pre-plumbed with a softener loop, which makes installation faster and less expensive. Older homes without a loop need a full line run to the main. We quote both options up front — see our loop vs. full-line guide for what to expect.

Is a salt-free conditioner a good option in Cave Creek?

At 14-16 GPG, Cave Creek water is hard enough that most homeowners want true softening. Salt-free conditioners reduce scale without removing hardness minerals, so they fit homes on septic or anywhere brine discharge is a concern. We recommend one or the other based on your water test, not a sales quota.

What maintenance does a water softener need in Cave Creek?

Mainly salt. Our Smart Salt Delivery program monitors your brine tank and delivers salt automatically, and our technicians service systems across Cave Creek and the Phoenix metro. Beyond salt, a properly sized system needs very little attention.
