Reverse Osmosis in Canyon Lake

Softened water is great for pipes and showers, but most people do not love drinking it, and even good municipal water in the Hill Country carries dissolved minerals and a chlorine taste that bottled water customers are paying to avoid. A reverse osmosis system under the kitchen sink fixes that at the one tap that matters for drinking and cooking. It pushes water through a membrane fine enough to remove the dissolved solids a filter cannot, polishes it with carbon, and stores it in a small tank so there is clean water ready at a dedicated faucet, with a line to the fridge and ice maker if you want it. We install reverse osmosis drinking water systems across Comal County, in new homes around New Braunfels and Bulverde and in established kitchens from Seguin to San Marcos. We mount the unit where it can be serviced, drill or use an existing hole for the faucet, run the drain connection properly, pressurize and sanitize the tank, and set you up on a filter and membrane schedule. We also service and re-filter RO units that are already in the house.

Water treatment in Canyon Lake

Canyon Lake wraps around the reservoir north of New Braunfels, a ring of lake communities, weekend houses and full-time homes set into steep, rocky hills above the water. Very little of it is on a city water system; most homes run on private wells drilled into the Hill Country limestone, and a few are on small community systems. That makes Canyon Lake the heart of our well water work. The water out of these wells is hard, and depending on the property it can carry iron that stains fixtures and the limestone where sprinklers hit, a sulfur smell that is strongest at the hot tap, or sediment that clogs aerators after the pump has been working. Second-home owners from Startzville to the north shore notice the smell first when they open the house after a few weeks away. Buyers under contract call us for a test because they have never owned a well. We test, then build the treatment in the right order for what is actually in your water: sediment, iron and sulfur removal, softening, and UV where a bacteria test calls for it, with an RO unit at the sink for drinking water. We service the softeners and filters already in place too, including the ones installed by whoever sold the house.

  • Under-sink RO systems with a dedicated drinking-water faucet
  • Optional line to the refrigerator and ice maker
  • Drain connection, tank pressure and production rate checked at install
  • Filter and membrane replacement on existing units, most brands
  • Tank sanitized at every service
  • Pairs with a softener so the membrane lasts

Common Water Problems in Canyon Lake

The water problems we see most around here, and how we handle them.

Sulfur smell when the house has sat empty

Weekend places around the lake sit unused for weeks, and the rotten-egg smell of hydrogen sulfide builds in the water heater and the lines. Owners notice it the moment they open the house. An oxidizing filter ahead of the softener removes the sulfur at the source, so the smell is gone whether the house is lived in or not.

Iron staining on fixtures and limestone

Dissolved iron is common in the wells on these hills. It is clear from the tap and turns orange when it meets air, so it streaks toilets, tubs and the rock where the sprinklers land. A properly sized iron filter in front of the softener takes it out; a softener alone fouls trying to.

Buyers who have never owned a well

Many Canyon Lake buyers are moving from a city and are on a well for the first time. We test during the option period, including a lab bacteria sample, explain the results and quote only the treatment the water calls for, so the well becomes a known quantity instead of a worry.

Reverse Osmosis in Canyon Lake: FAQs

Do you cover the whole Canyon Lake area?
Yes. We cover Canyon Lake and the communities around the reservoir, including Startzville, Sattler, Canyon City, Hancock, Cordova and the subdivisions up the hills. Tell us where the property is and how the access looks and we will come prepared.
Our Canyon Lake well water smells like rotten eggs. Can it be fixed?
Yes. The smell is hydrogen sulfide, and it is a very common complaint on wells around the lake. We test to see how much is there and whether iron is riding along with it, then install an air-injection or media filter ahead of the softener that removes it. Most homes are smell-free from the first day.
Is well water at Canyon Lake safe to drink?
Most of it is, but the only way to know is a lab bacteria test, and that is the one test every well owner should have at purchase and after any flooding or well work. If the test comes back clean, treatment is about hardness, iron, sulfur and taste. If it does not, a UV disinfection unit is the standard fix and we install those as part of the treatment train.
Do I need reverse osmosis if I already have a water softener?
Only if you want better drinking water. The softener handles scale and soap performance for the whole house; it does not improve taste and leaves dissolved solids in the water. An RO unit at the kitchen sink is the usual answer for people who are buying bottled water or dislike the taste of softened water.
How often do RO filters and the membrane need changing?
The prefilters and carbon stages are typically changed on a regular yearly schedule, and the membrane less often, depending on the unit and how hard the incoming water is. We set the schedule when we install, and if your water is softened first the membrane lasts longer.
Can you run the RO water to the fridge?
Yes. We can run a line from the RO system to the refrigerator so the water and ice dispenser use filtered water. It is a common add-on at install and can usually be added to an existing unit.
