Marcus came over and tested the water. He explained to me everything he was doing while he was doing it. He answered a lot of questions and I have decided to buy from them. I thought it was an excellent first start.
Sam is the ultimate professional and just a great person overall! There’s not enough words that I can express to capture how well of a job he’s done for my home and family.In short, Sam had to work with myself and the builders of my home to... address a knocking sound that had nothing to do my water filtration system (But was involved just to make sure everything was free and clear from the work performed during the water filtration install by AAA). In addressing all of these variables, Sam just displayed the ultimate professionalism, while also having to drive out really far to my home for each visit (3-4 times).Today the issues were fully addressed/fixed. Thanks to Sam’s patience, diligence and just being a good hearted person, we were able to get to the bottom of everything.As it relates to my whole house water filtration and RO system, it is the best thing that has happened for my household. There’s been no issues and works as described by our excellent sales guys Al.Overall, AAA Water Systems is a great company that values excellent customer service (It’s truly a lost value/art these days). They go above and beyond to not only make sure that their customers are taken care of, but that their workmanship reflects the same quality.From Al (Salesperson) , to the installer, to Sam (Manager) and the owner Tony, they exemplify and exude all the qualities that you’d want in a company.Thanks again Sam! You are true gentleman and GEM!read more

I was looking for a water softening/cleaning system for my house. Came across Kinetico and AAA Water Systems. Sanjay Narayan came over and explained everything in detail. He also made sure to show us how hard the water was in our house. After he... left, I had few more questions about the system and hard water in general which he kindly responded in timely manner and that too in detail. I was very impressed with the amount of time Sanjay spent explaining and ensuring that we were taken care of. And once, the system was installed in my house he got in touch with me and made sure everything went smoothly. He also made sure to come to my house and check the completed work and check the water (hardness). Overall, an amazing experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend Sanjay and AAA Water systems (Kinetico). You cannot go wrong.read more
Was recommended to get a water softener. Didn't know a thing. Sales Rep (Marqus, M.) was very professional and shared his knowledge with me in regards to how water is being cleaned. Also gave me a discount on both my new water softener and RO filter... system. I would highly recommend this company if you live in an area with hard water. Also thanks to Samuel C.

We have become addicted to good tasting water.Tony Soltani and his team also provide an annual service which is well worth it. AAA Water Systems is top shelf and I would highly recommend them!

We have owned our water system since 2004 and couldn't be more pleased. Had one before and will have one after. The beauty of the system is that it doesn't use any house electricity. It operates on its own through mechanical means (amount of water... flow) to operate and regenerate. It is a very reliable system which has never broken down if 16 years! I recommend it completely.read more
I feel so much better our family has cleaner drinking water! I have been considering getting a whole house water purification system and found Kinetico by AAA Water Systems. We had an appointment with Damian Fernandez. He was so nice and took the... time to make sure we understood how the water system works and answered all of our questions. I was also horrified that the water test showed that what we had been drinking barely met regulations.The installation only took one day to complete. Jessie was courteous and confirmed my preferences before installing the system. The tanks take up much less space in our garage than I thought. Then Jessie walked through how to turn it off and on as well as how to maintain it. In the end I'm very pleased with the service and product!Here are a few things to consider... laundry pods have too much detergent and will stain your clothes. After the system is installed you'll need much less detergent (money saver) for the washer and dishwasher. Also you'll need to decide where you want your untreated water faucet to be. I chose inside the garage with the treatment system but I wish I would've chosen the outside faucet so I can water my plants with that water. Also if you're like us with conserving water in this drought, keep in mind you can't use the grey water from the house in your yard or garden. The treated water is not good for plants. Your house plants need to be watered with the hard, untreated water.read more

Frequently Asked Drinking Water Questions:
What does the safe drinking water act say?
(table)The safe drinking water act requires many actions to protect drinking water and its sources. The law was amended in 1986 and 1996 and authorizes the US EPA to set national standards for drinking water that protect against both naturally-occurring and man-made contaminants that may be found in drinking water sources. Originally, the SDWA focused primarily on treatment as the means of providing safe drinking water but the 1996 amendments recognized the need for source water protection, training, funding, and public information. The EPA has established protective drinking water standards for more than 90 contaminants but activists push that the number of contaminants monitored should be closer to 270 and that the laws are in dire need of an update.
What is the best water to drink?
While you may have a preference for what is the best water to drink, generally, there’s no one type that promises greater health benefits than the others. Different types of water, each with their own pros & cons, include tap, mineral, spring, glacier, sparkling, distilled, purified, infused, and alkaline but, so long as the water you’re drinking is clean and safe, the main focus is to make sure that you stay hydrated and to ensure you’re drinking enough water on a regular basis.
Is tap water safe to drink?
While the EPA holds that tap water is safe to drink, independent water analysts, activists, and consumer researchers hold that the water found in our tap is still far from healthy. The EPA regulates and requires treatment for more than 90 contaminants but a recent study surveyed the country’s water for more than 270 contaminants deemed unsafe at certain levels for human consumption. Aging infrastructure and outdated laws point more and more to the need for point of service water treatment systems to ensure that water used for drinking, cooking, and bathing is safe for human and animal consumption.
Where does drinking water come from?
Drinking water comes from various sources depending upon where you live. The majority of sources can be categorized as freshwater or groundwater sources. Lakes, rivers, mountain snow/ rain runoff, and natural springs make up the majority of drinking water sources..
