Kachina Village homeowners call Liberty for water softeners & filtration because we're local to the high country, licensed, and answer the phone 24/7. Kachina Village sits around 6,800 feet just south of Flagstaff off I-17, and it is one of the few High Country communities on a real water and sewer district rather than wells and septic. That changes what goes wrong and how we fix it. We know the difference, we work here regularly, and we will quote you fair before we start. Done right the first time.

Kachina Village is served by the Kachina Village Improvement District, a Coconino County operation that has provided water and wastewater to the community since 1965, drawing groundwater from the Coconino Regional Aquifer and running a gravity sewer to its own treatment plant. That matters to you as a homeowner because it draws a clear line: the district handles the mains and the meter, and everything from there into your house is yours. When something goes wrong, knowing which side of that line the problem sits on saves you both time and money, and it is the first thing we sort out on a service call here.

What we see on Kachina Village plumbing

Water Softeners & Filtration in Kachina Village, FAQ

Do I really need a softener in Anthem?
If you want your water heater, fixtures, and tankless to last, then yes. Our hardness is extreme even for Arizona.
What's different about well water out here?
Wells in Cave Creek and New River can carry iron, sediment, and pressure-tank trouble a city softener won't touch. We test and treat for what's actually there.
How hard is the water in my area, and do I actually need a softener?
Across Anthem, Scottsdale, and Glendale, hardness usually runs 16-20 grains per gallon, which is very hard. If you're seeing white scale on fixtures, spotty glassware, and short water-heater life, softening will protect your plumbing and appliances. We test on-site so the system is sized to your actual number.
What's the difference between a water softener and a reverse-osmosis system?
A softener pulls the hardness minerals out for the whole house, protecting your pipes and heaters. Reverse osmosis is a point-of-use system, usually under the kitchen sink, that cleans up drinking water by removing dissolved solids, chlorine, and contaminants. A lot of homes want both, and the softener actually extends the life of the RO membrane.
Will a softener make my water taste salty?
No. Ion exchange adds a small amount of sodium in proportion to the hardness, and you won't taste it at normal levels. If you're on a sodium-restricted diet, we can set it up with potassium chloride instead, and an RO unit on the drinking tap takes it out entirely.
I'm on a well in Prescott. Can I just install a softener?
Not without a test first. Well water in the high country can carry iron, sulfur, sediment, low pH, nitrates, or bacteria, and a softener does nothing for most of those. We pull a lab test and build the treatment stack around the results, which often means an iron filter or pH neutralizer ahead of any softener.
Does softened water hurt my plants or garden?
Plants generally don't care for the added sodium in softened water. That's why we plumb a bypass or keep an outside hose bib on the hard line, so your irrigation and garden get untreated water while the house gets softened. It's a simple loop decision we make at install.
Is my water problem the district's responsibility or mine?
Generally the Kachina Village Improvement District is responsible for the mains and the meter, and you are responsible for the service line and everything from the meter into the house. That is the first thing we figure out when we come out, because there is no sense paying us for work the district should be handling. If it is on their side, we will tell you and you can call them.
