Why Routine Maintenance is Non-Negotiable

Even the best water systems need regular care to stay at peak performance. Over time, filters clog, mineral deposits form, and components wear down. KCB Plumbing’s certified maintenance service keeps your system clean, efficient, and reliable year-round.

Guaranteed Water Quality
Replacing filters prevents bacteria buildup and keeps your water clean, pure, and safe.

Maintain Peak Efficiency
Dirty filters make systems work harder. Regular maintenance improves performance and lowers utility costs.

Protect Your Investment
Scale buildup can damage components. Our professional service extends the life of your entire system.

How Often Should You Replace Filters?

Different filters have different lifespans depending on your system and water quality:

Sediment filters: Every 6–12 months

Carbon filters: Every 6–12 months

Reverse osmosis membranes: Every 2–3 years

Water softener media: Every 5–10 years (depending on hardness)

KCB technicians will assess your system and set a custom maintenance schedule to keep your water fresh and your equipment protected.

We offer free, over-the-phone estimates for many services. For more complex jobs, we may need a trip charge to conduct an in-person diagnostic, which we always communicate clearly beforehand.

How often do my filters really need to be changed?

For Orange County homes, sediment and carbon filters typically need changing every 6 to 12 months due to usage and water hardness. We base our recommendations on your system type and water test results.

Will KCB service a system that was installed by another company?

Yes, our technicians are trained on all major brands (Culligan, Kinetico, EcoPure, etc.). We can take over the maintenance of your existing water softener or RO system immediately.

How do I know if my water softener is working correctly?

Signs of a failing softener include hard water spots returning on dishes, less soap lathering, or the unit constantly running (a sign of a leak or a stuck valve). Call us for a quick diagnostic check.
