Our Inland Empire Coverage Area

Adjudicated Basins and Desalters

The Chino Basin and Bunker Hill basin are managed under court judgments, and desalters treat salty and nitrate-rich groundwater. Imported State Water Project water recharges the basins. Check your bill for your provider.

Hard Water and Scale

Basin and imported water carry minerals that settle as scale. Flush the heater yearly, soak aerators in vinegar and descale tankless units.

Heat, Wind and Fast-Grown Subdivisions

Triple-digit summers and Santa Ana winds crack plastic fittings and bake hose bibs, and many homes were built in the last thirty years. Report defects in newer homes to the builder in writing while the warranty is active.

Warehouse Neighbors, Rentals and Rural Lots

Rentals and homes near logistics buildings are common, and larger lots may use wells or septic systems. Ask which system serves a property and test well water before buying.
