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.

I recently had a leaking outside water spigot that I couldn’t fix on my own so I decided to shop around and find a reliable plumbing company to assist me. Olympia Plumbing Technology in Olympia Wa. Answered the call. The technician I worked with was named Morgan who was absolutely professional and knowledgeable about the job! Morgan explained in great detail the job he would perform to fix my leaky spigot which lead to cutting into drywall to repair a poorly installed pipe during the home construction. As Morgan worked he explained the why’s on what he was doing and made sure I completely understood the issue and how he was going to fix it! After the job was over Morgan left the work area like his company was never there. Because of his hard work and professionalism I am recommending Olympia Plumbing Technology to all my family and friends! I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for an outstanding plumbing service! Joe

Rafael was incredibly professional, very patient and left our washroom plumbing looking immaculate and functioning better than ever. We got same day assessment and fix, which was awesome. My experience was that this professional plumber was notably courteous and worked efficiently to take some 100 year old plumbing and make it modern functioning. What a blessing. Thank you Rafael. He a joy to work with.
