Water Treatment Services

Water treatment refers to the process of removing contaminants and impurities from water so it is safe to drink and use. Suburban Water Technology’s end goal is to ensure that your water is safe, whether that be within your home or a commercial facility.

Once your water is properly assessed and treated, harmful bacteria and contaminants will be removed if they were present. Water treatment includes a variety of different steps – we can use chemicals, install equipment, or utilize other methods to clean your water. Each home and property we treat is different!

Most customers quickly notice a large improvement in taste, smell, and appearance of their water.

In addition to providing water treatment services, Suburban Water Technology also offers ongoing maintenance and support to ensure your water treatment system continues to operate at peak performance.

We are committed to offering excellent customer service and providing our customers with clean, safe, and healthy water throughout the Gilbertsville and Reading area. Not located in these areas? No worries. We provide water treatment solutions to customers throughout Pennsylvania and New Jersey!

How Clean is your Water?

Water chemistry begins with a very simple formula – H2O – and in its purest form water is 11% hydrogen and 89% oxygen. What makes water “good” is the lack of impurities. Schedule a consultation and we will test your water on-site and discuss the best purification options. 

Well water

The greatest potential for contaminates rises from the fact that water is a universal solvent. Anything that dissolves in water can find its way into your well.

public water

The pipes that deliver water to your home may be over 50 years old and many miles long. Unfortunately, it doesn’t matter how good the water is when it leaves the treatment plant. 

We can fix your water!

Excellent experience with Suburban Water Technology installing our home water softener. Everyone was professional, clearly explained the process, arrived on time, and completed the installation in record-breaking time. The work was clean and efficient from start to finish. Highly recommend Suburban Water Technology for all your home water needs.

This whole experience, from selling to installing, has been flawless and so professional. There is such a difference in my water. It tastes better, there are no more water spots from the dishwasher and soap goes a long way. We should have done this years ago!

From consultation to install, the Suburban Water Technology team (especially technician/installer Kenny), performed at such a very high level and the craftmanship is some of the best I've seen.

We purchased a water softener through Costco who used Suburban Water Technology to handle the installation. Rich came out to do the estimate and look over the plumbing etc. He was friendly and knowledgeable and gladly came back a second time to address some additional questions we had about where to place the unit. We had it put in about 2 wks ago. Billy did a very professional job making certain the unit was installed and functioning properly as well as making certain we understood how it worked and how to care for it. I have great peace of mind knowing this job was done was well and at a reasonable price.

Had Shore Water Refining come out to check my water, we were getting discoloration in the plumbing fixtures and pipes. I was worried that it was iron as we are redoing our master bath in all white I wanted to solve this issue. Right away they told me it was. clay, after checking the water they recommended a softener and an RO filter at the kitchen sink. After these were installed we noticed our coffee tastes better our hair is softer after washing. We are very pleased with the system. As a retired plumber I was critical about the install, but it was very neat and mechanical. I would highly recommend Shore Water Refining

Really thorough workmanship and excellent communication. I've used Suburban for personal and work related.. referred them to clients for well testings before a purchase; they've installed a UV light on a rental property very quickly before tenant moved in; they've answered clients calls with questions. Really great service!
Mr. James was really helpful in explaining the whole process clearly. It helped us to pick and choose the right equipment for our house. The person(sorry forgot his name) who came to fix the equipment did all the work with ease. Mr. James came for a follow up and ran thro all the process and also allowed me to record for my future reference. Great service

Bill from Suburban Water came to my home in Perkasie today for a water softener consult. He was very thorough with his water test and explained what he was testing for and exactly what our test results were in real time. He explained the entire softener installation process from start to finish including estimated future invoice costs and tested our water pressure. He was very professional, kind and compassionate about his work.

Although it was unrelated to this particular appointment, I mentioned other potential concerns about a potential guest bath shower/toilet leak. He went above and beyond by looking at my guest bathroom during the water softener consult and provided his professional opinion.

My expectations have been exceeded by Suburban Water. While I hope I do not have any additional plumbing issues in the future, I plan to call Suburban Water for any potential issues related to plumbing and or my water heater in the future.

Thank you Suburban Water for the education, insight and for showing professionalism and kindness to you customers!!!

Very happy with the water softener/treatment and RO (Reverse Osmosis) water system they set up for us over a year ago. No more showers that smell like chlorine and no more hard water buildup! Love it!

Shore Water Refining is the best. Very responsive to needs. Byron is the best.
Great system and technician Brandon is great. My two star review is the result of my being charged $190 for a replacement ballast for my UV bulb. The very same ballast, made by the same company, retails for $89.95 on line. I know companies are in the game to make money, but seriously.

Terrible service. Horrible installation. Shoddy parts were installed which created a leak in my kitchen. It is now leaking again. It is not draining properly so the tank is filling up with water and this is the 3rd time we have complained about this issue. I just had it serviced by them and they never changed out the filters. Never even mentioned that it would need it. This system is only 1 year old. They don't follow through with what they sell you and this system was way TOO EXPENSIVE to have these many problems.

My wife and I have been using Advanced Water Resources since we bought our house over 10 years ago. The company is professional and its technicians, like Tom and Brandon, are courteous, personable, and explain things easily so the customers understand. Much appreciated!

Awesome company with great people. Rich saw through a multistage project flawlessly. Even took care of radon in the water. These guys can do everything. And Eli is the best tech ever. Really knew his stuff, great at explaining things, worked incredibly efficiently, and like Rich made us feel like valued customers. They really stand behind their work, proven when the head of customer support Walter came out to get eyes on the project to make sure it really was up to their standard.

A pleasre to deal with. My softener system was installed by the former homeowner. After 11 years, the pressure drop increased. Called Suburban, they had all of the records for the system, and supplied all of the materials and service parts. Not typically a DIY project, but they were very helpful providing guidance and recommending inspections of the components.

Their original installation is outstanding, carefully piped, quality components used throughout. A great, locally owned company. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

We have had our water softner for 3 months now and it’s improved multiple aspects of our home. There is no more hard water white residue around the sinks, there are no more spots on clean dishes after they go through the dishwasher, and my wife says her skin/hair feel better now after showers.

We were introduced to Suburban Water through Costco. We scheduled a free water test, and installation overview where they sent a consultant to our house to evaluate our water quality and determine where a softner would be installed. Our consultant, James, did a great job explaining what options were available and would best meet our needs. Our installer was polite and efficient. He ensured we were happy with the placement of the softener and understood how to work it.

Highly recommend if you’re a Costco member, or even if you’re not.
