Find a different company! We came home to major water damage originating from the RO system they installed. Their insurance company is offering over $5000 less than what it would cost to restore our home to pre-damaged conditions and this company hasn’t stepped up to cover. In addition, their insurance company won’t respond to any of my questions because I am not “their insured” and they won’t accept any estimates from anyone but their own estimator. Aqua Science should be working with their insurance company (not me) and they should cover all costs to restore our home, but no such luck yet. Move along and use a different company!! I am filing a complaint with the ROC now. Hopefully, they will step up and do what’s right in the end. We shouldn’t be out the money when they caused the problem. FYI this company works under several names: Aqua Science, Costless Water Systems, AZ Water Rentals and J&D Resources.

Not so great. When the technician discovered what appears to be a small crack or defect in one of the filter sumps, he threw it all back together, packed up his tools, and left. But not before making a fairly strong pitch to sell me a new unit at full price. When I pressed him, he offered to honor that price for 30 days. I went to Home Depot and purchased the three main filters (couldn't find the post carbon filter) and will shop around for a comparable unit at a better price. I realize the system is older, but he didn't offer any alternative to simply replacing the entire system.

I will never use these guys, it seemed like a scam.
Description of Work: Quoted $100 to do a service call to check my mister system. Seemed very high, but they did previous work. came out, said it couldn't be fixed. Billed $157.64. When questioned he said that he taped all calls without people knowing about it. He said he would verify amount. Never returned with an answer.

The salesman, Dave, was somewhat helpful. He was a little confused about the company and its offering since he had not worked there very long. But he was friendly and honest. The contractors came out the following week and installed the unit. They dug a trench and buried the pipes. They had to knock a hole through the concrete underneath our gate door which caused it to lean a little and made closing the door a little more difficult. Other than that, they did a nice job and included pavers to raise it off the unit off the floor. So far, the unit has done well and we are enjoying soft water.
Description of Work: Installing a Classic I 3000 water softener. Since we did not have a loop and the garage was on the opposite side from the water main, we had to install it outside.

I got four estimates. Three of the companies looked at the job and said they had to tie into the drain of my garage sink or laundry. Both involved cutting through walls and cabinets, which I really didn't want to do. Mr. Schimmel came in, saw how he could route it through a small attic area in the garage through a garage wall, and cleaned out the drain outside my garage wall. I can barely tell it is there, and on the rare chance it would leak at the drain, neither my house or garage would be flooded. They even hid the electric. Workers were quiet, respectful, and cleaned up after themselves.
Description of Work: They placed a water softener in an older home that was without a loop for the softener.

WE ALREADY HAD THE HOME PRE-PLUMBED SO HE CONNECTED IT AND SET UP THE SYSTEM. HE ADDED THE SALT AND SHOWED ME HOW TO ADD IT. HE THEN WENT THROUGH THE INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO USE IT AND SOME TIPS ON ISSUES THAT OTHER CLIENTS HAVE HAD. IT TOOK A WHILE FOR THE WATER TO BE SOFT BUT IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM NOW. WE HAD TO CALL THE CITY WATER DEPT TO FIND OUT THE WATER HARDNESS SO WE COULD SET IT UP TO WORK WITH OUR WATER, NOT THE GENERAL SETUP.

VERY POOR. AFTER CHANGING THE FILTER, THE SYSTEM LEAKED AND DAMAGED OUR CABINET INTERIOR. THE TECHNICIAN CAME OUT A DAY LATER AND FIXED THE LEAK, BUT THEN THE HOSES BEGAN HAVING PRESSURE ISSUES AND WOULD SLAP AGAINST THE TANK WHENEVER WATER WAS BEING DRAWN ANYWHERE IN THE HOUSE. RATHER THAN RISK THEM WORKING ON IT AGAIN AND POTENTIALLY MORE WATER DAMAGE, WE TAPED THE HOSES TO THE TANK TO STOP THE NOISE. THE TECHNICIAN SAID WE WOULD RECEIVE A CALL FROM THEM TO OFFER COMPENSATION FOR THE WATER DAMAGE. BIG SURPRISE, WE NEVER RECEIVED THE CALL. OVERALL, A VERY INCOMPETENT JOB DONE ON WHAT WOULD SEEM TO BE A FAIRLY SIMPLE PROCEDURE.
Description of Work: WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A SIMPLE FILTER CHANGE ON OUR REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM. THE INSTALLATION A YEAR BEFORE WENT SMOOTHLY AND WITHOUT A HITCH.

WE PURCHASED OUR WATER SOFTENER AND R/O SYSTEM FROM PURE-TEC REPRESENTATIVE AND DECIDED TO HAVE IT INSTALLED BY A FRIEND WHO SAID THATS WHAT HE DID AND IT WAS A MESS.

WE PURCHASED OUR WATER SOFTENER FROM PURETEC 2 1/2 YEARS AGO BECAUSE THEY HAD A MUCH BETTER PRICE THAN OUR OTHER BID. WHEN WE HAD A PROBLEM THIS SPRING, THEY CAME IMMEDIATELY TO TRY TO REPAIR IT. WHEN THE TECH COULD NOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM THEY PUT US ON THE TOP OF THE LIST TO HAVE SOMEONE ELSE COME OUT. GARY, IN THE SERVICE CENTER, WAS GREAT IN KEEPING THE LINES OF COMMUNICATION OPEN AND REALLY STAYED IN TOP OF EVERYTHING UNTIL COMPLETION.
Description of Work: WE NEEDED SERVICE AN REPAIR OF A REVERSE OSMOSIS UNIT. IT STARTED AS A PROBLEM WITH THE UNIT NOT WORKING PROPERLY, THEN TROUBLE WITH DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM. THEY TOOK THE WHOLE UNIT BACK TO THEIR SHOP AND SET AN APPOINTMENT UP FOR A QUICK RETURN.

IN GENERAL THIS COMPANY HAS SERVICED OUR WATER SYSTEM WELL. WE HAVE HAD SOME MINOR PROBLEMS WITH SOME HARD WATER READING THAT WERE DONE INCORRECTLY AND A CLOG, BUT THE PROBLEMS WERE FIXED IN A VERY TIMELY FASHION. THEY DO SOMETIMES SHOW UP EARLY IF YOU HAVE AN APPOINTMENT EARLY IN THE DAY WHICH ISNT A BAD THING, BUT COULD LEAD TO AN UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATION IF YOUR JUST STEPPING OUT OF THE SHOWER WHEN THE DOORBELL RINGS.
