Water treatment built for Ocean Beach's water

Ocean Beach is the laid-back coastal neighborhood on San Diego's west end, with cottages and older homes. City of San Diego tap water is mostly imported Colorado River and Northern California (State Water Project) water, blended with runoff stored in the city's local reservoirs and disinfected with chloramine. We install and service water softeners, whole-home filtration, and reverse osmosis systems for homeowners throughout Ocean Beach and nearby Pacific Beach, Point Loma and Bay Park.

No mystery numbers and no high-pressure closing. You get a clean written quote for the exact system your home needs, with financing options available.

Licensed installs, backed for life

Ocean Beach water · what's in your tap

What's in Ocean Beach's tap water?

In Ocean Beach, water comes from the City of San Diego Public Utilities Department. Colorado River water picks up a lot of calcium and magnesium on its way to San Diego, so City of San Diego water is very hard by the USGS scale (over 180 mg/L). Chloramine is also why the tap water can taste or smell a little like a pool.

Main source

Imported Colorado River and Northern California water, plus local reservoir runoff

Typical hardness

Very hard

Disinfectant

Chloramine

Exact numbers vary by address and season. Your water bill shows which supplier serves you, and every supplier publishes an annual water quality report with its hardness readings.

Coastal homes · Ocean Beach

What we usually recommend for Ocean Beach homes

Beach cottages and coastal homes are often tight on space, with the water line close to the street, so we plan the install location carefully and keep equipment covered from salt air. Our standard softener-and-carbon system is the most common fit, and the salt-free conditioner + carbon tank works for tight spots without a drain.
