Done! offers a range of water quality services for Denver-area homeowners, including water softening, whole-home filtration, reverse osmosis drinking water systems, UV purification, and water quality testing. The Front Range is known for hard water and, in some areas, elevated levels of minerals, chlorine, or other contaminants that affect taste, appliance life, and skin and hair health. Done! can test your water and recommend the right treatment for what your specific supply actually contains.
Water Softening
Hard water is the most common water quality complaint in the Denver metro. High concentrations of calcium and magnesium cause scale buildup on faucets, showerheads, water heaters, and appliances. A whole-home ion-exchange water softener removes those minerals before they reach your plumbing, extending equipment life, improving soap lathering, and reducing the chalky deposits on fixtures. Done! installs and services traditional salt-based softeners as well as salt-free conditioning systems for homeowners who want to reduce sodium in their water.
Whole-Home Carbon Filtration
Denver Water and other Front Range utilities treat municipal supply with chlorine or chloramines to kill pathogens, but those chemicals affect taste and smell — and some homeowners prefer to remove them at the point of entry before the water reaches fixtures and appliances. A whole-home carbon filtration system does exactly that, filtering all water entering the home. These systems also reduce volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and sediment. Done! can size and install a system matched to your household’s water usage.
Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water
For the highest quality drinking and cooking water, a reverse osmosis (RO) system installed under the kitchen sink removes a much broader spectrum of contaminants than a standard carbon filter — including nitrates, heavy metals, fluoride, and dissolved solids. RO systems produce purified water stored in a small pressure tank, dispensed from a dedicated faucet on the sink. Done! installs point-of-use RO systems and can tie them into a refrigerator water line as well.
UV Purification
Ultraviolet purification uses a germicidal UV lamp to neutralize bacteria, viruses, and other biological contaminants in the water supply without adding chemicals. UV systems are often paired with filtration in homes on well water or in areas with any history of biological contamination concerns. Done! can integrate UV treatment into a whole-home water treatment system as an additional layer of protection.
Why Water Quality Matters for Your Whole Plumbing System
- Hard water deposits shorten water heater life — especially tankless units with small heat exchangers
- Scale inside pipes gradually reduces flow and increases pressure at fixtures
- Chlorine and chloramines degrade rubber seals and washers over time
- Better water quality means less frequent faucet, showerhead, and appliance maintenance
Water Quality Testing
The right water treatment starts with knowing what’s actually in your water. Done! can arrange water quality testing to identify hardness levels, pH, chlorine or chloramine presence, sediment, iron content, and other parameters relevant to the Front Range water supply. Testing results tell us exactly what to address rather than guessing — and they serve as a baseline so you can verify the treatment system is performing as expected.
Done! treats water quality as a whole-home investment, not just a drinking water concern. Learn more about your options on our water quality treatment page, or visit our water heater services page to see how treatment and heater maintenance work together to protect your equipment.
