Arsenic in Water in Boise, Eagle, Meridian, Kuna, & Garden City
Aresnic is a common water issue in Idaho, however it can be easily and affordably removed with an under-sink filter from AquaTech of Idaho.
According to the CDC, “Arsenic can enter the water supply from natural deposits in the earth or from industrial and agricultural pollution. It is widely believed that naturally occurring arsenic dissolves out of certain rock formations when groundwater levels drop significantly. Some industries in the United States release thousands of pounds of arsenic into the environment every year. Once released, arsenic remains in the environment for a long time. Arsenic is removed from the air by rain, snow, and gradual settling. Once on the ground or in surface water, arsenic can slowly enter groundwater. High arsenic levels in private wells may come from certain arsenic-containing fertilizers used in the past or industrial waste. It may also indicate improper well construction or overuse of chemical fertilizers or herbicides in the past.”

"Dustin installed our Pentair whole-house water filter yesterday. He very patiently answered all our questions and laid to rest any qualms we had about doing a whole-house filter. He was so patient and pain-taking during the installation process. He also did some maintenance on the Fleck water softener during all this. Both Richie and Dustin are the best at what they do. We highly recommend Aquatech of Idaho!"

"They are the best place I have ever had to deal with. It's such a relief to have someone that knows what they are doing. They are always fair when I need filters changed or salt delivered or service work done. Dean is such a nice guy!"

"Dustin did an excellent job of giving my water softener a thorough checkup! He is extremely knowledgeable and went straight to work with no hesitation or time wasted. Not only did he improve the function of our water softener, but he also discovered another water leak elsewhere and fixed it in short order. After completing the work, Dustin gave us tips on how to maintain other aspects of our system such as the RO water filter under the sink. He kept our best interest in mind with every action and recommendation he made. Bottom, he went way over and above what we hoped for. Can't recommend him highly enough!"
