Water Treatment for Banning Wells
Banning well water comes from San Gorgonio Pass alluvial fan and granite, which creates specific water quality challenges that require targeted treatment solutions.
What's in Banning Well Water?
- Hardness: 12-20 grains — causes scale buildup, soap scum, appliance damage
- TDS: 450-900 ppm — affects taste and indicates mineral content
- Common contaminants: moderate to hard water (12-20 grains), high TDS in some areas
Recommended Treatment Systems for Banning
Water Softener (Essential)
With 12-20 grains hardness, a softener is critical for Banning homes. Benefits:

- Softer skin and hair, better soap lathering
- Extends lifespan of well pump and plumbing
- Reduces water heater energy costs by 25-30%

With TDS levels up to 900 ppm in Banning, an RO system provides:
- Ultra-pure drinking water (removes 95-99% of dissolved solids)
- Better taste (removes minerals, sulfates, nitrates)
- Typically installed under kitchen sink

Your well produces 8-25 GPM. We size treatment systems based on:
- Well flow rate (8-25 GPM)
- Household size and peak demand
- Specific contaminants in your water test
- Water usage patterns (irrigation, livestock, residential)
