How Do I Know Exactly What’s in My Water?

The best way to find out is with professional testing. We check for hardness, chlorine, pH balance, and other common contaminants found in Olympia-area water. Once we test, we’ll recommend the right system based on real results.

Do I Need a Whole-Home Filter or Just One for My Sink?

It depends on your goals — under-sink filters are great for drinking and cooking, while whole-home systems protect all your water lines. If you have widespread staining or dry skin, a full-system filter is likely the better choice. We’ll help you weigh the benefits of each.

What’s the Difference Between a Filter and a Softener?

Filters remove contaminants like chlorine, sediment, and bacteria, while softeners specifically address minerals like calcium and magnesium. Many homeowners benefit from having both. We’ll evaluate your water and explain the best setup for your needs.

How Often Do Filters Need to Be Replaced?

Most systems require filter changes every 6 to 12 months, depending on usage and water quality. We offer maintenance reminders and replacement services to keep things simple. Staying on schedule helps your system stay effective and efficient.

Noticing Strange Tastes, Smells, or Stains? Your Water Might Be to Blame

The quality of your home’s water impacts your health, plumbing, and daily comfort. Olympic Plumbing Technology helps Olympia homeowners identify and resolve water issues that often go unnoticed — until they cause damage or frustration. If you’re seeing any of these signs, it’s time to test your water:

Unpleasant Taste or Odor: Metallic, chlorine-like, or sulfur smells could indicate chemical imbalances or bacteria.
Cloudy or Discolored Water: Murky water may be caused by sediment, corrosion, or mineral content.
Hard Water Spots on Dishes and Fixtures: Calcium and magnesium buildup can damage appliances and leave behind stains.
Dry Skin and Brittle Hair: High mineral levels can affect your body just as much as your plumbing.
Staining in Sinks, Toilets, or Tubs: Red, brown, or blue-green stains often point to pH issues or iron and copper content.
Appliance Wear or Failure: Hard or acidic water shortens the lifespan of water heaters, dishwashers, and washing machines.

We needed a broken water pump quickly replaced and selected Olympic Plumbing because they have a cool logo and someone immediately answered our call to get the service scheduled quicker than the other plumbers we called. Shortly after that service another part of our complex well water system failed so we called Olympic back to figure out a better way to pump water from the well 400 feet up the hill to our house. Nate brought in an engineering specialist to calculate the pump capacity needed to get the water up the hill. The math was correct but our existing pipe layout created unexpected negative pressure preventing water to get to the house. They then determined having a different tank would fix the problem and provide much cleaner water. Despite the numerous challenges, Nate and the team kept trying and found a solution, often working late at night and on weekends to make sure our water supply was available as much as possible. Throughout the process Olympic's communication about the status was great and despite all the challenges and trying different tanks and pumps, the total price was exactly what they quoted at the beginning. Wow. You don't often get Olympic Pumbing's level of customer commitment and service from many contractors. Thanks, Nate! We highly recommend- and they have a cool logo that made me smile whenever their vehicles were at our house.

Robby is professional, courteous and knowledgeable. I had a plumbing emergency and the company sent him within minutes to my house to assess and plan the repairs. He was also able to call a restoration company out immediately to assess the damage and plan repairs to the HVAC system which was affected by the flood. They will both start work first thing in the morning. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Update to this, which I forgot to post last night. Robby arrived promptly at eight and had completed his job in a few hours. He solved the problem, made the repairs and was cleaned up and gone in a timely manner. Excellent service. Will definitely use again if the need should arise.

Gaige and Jake were wonderful to work with! They were so personable and explained everything in plain English so I could understand. They completed the work so quickly and our filter is working GREAT now! They even explained it to my 4 year old and 2 year old, they were so kind! If I need more work done, I really hope I get this team next time! (They installed a new whole home water filter, fixed our expansion tank on the hot water tank, fixed a kids toy stuck in the toilet, and rerouted and installed a water shut off inside the garage)
