Water Softening – Filtration – Purification

Here in Maine, we have the purity of the great outdoors. With that comes some of nature’s dark side. In addition to the usual Hard water, Iron (rusty) water, Sulfur (rotten egg smell) water, and a few other annoying problems, we have more serious problems such as Arsenic, Uranium, Radon & Bacteria. Finding any of these problems in a private well is actually quite common. Chuck, The Certified Water Specialist (that’s me), Technical Director & Applications Engineer at Mainely Water LLC, has more than 40 years of experience in the water treatment industry. We specialize in helping residential and small commercial customers fix water problems. We are a local Maine small business… family owned. We carry an impressive inventory to meet your needs. And we have the experience and expertise to conduct analysis and make a proper assessment of you water quality and your family’s needs for water usage.

Review by: James S. Alexander, ME

Project: Install or Replace a Water Treatment & Purification System

Comments: Called in less than 24 hours, answered many questions, I gave him the information from the water test report , he determined what we needed to correct situation and was able to give an estimate by phone. I called him back with a couple more questions he was patient and professional on the phone. We made an appointment to have system installed, I was asked a couple of questions about where the system would be installed, what type and size of line from the water tank. When he arrived to install he had everything he needed, his got strait to the job and explained everything to us, he left everything neat and clean. Very satisfied with this Contractor and Job.

5 Star Review | 09-08-2016

Review by: John O. in Wade, ME

Project: Install or Replace a Tankless Water Heater

Comments: We hired Mainely Water to install a Rinnai water heater in our home back in September (2016). The process was simple. Chuck was very informative. He scoped out our mechanical room and quoted a system in about 1/2 hour. Installation about 4 days later. The new water heater is so nice ! We have never run out of hot water like we did before. And our gas bill in next to nothing. We are believers ! We highly recommend Chuck & his company. John O.

Water Filter Service in Maine is a rare skill indeed. Water Softener Service in Maine is mostly a myth. Most companies or individuals that advertise “We service all makes & models”… DON”T ! Most of those guys are just trying to sell you a new water softener or water filter. Chuck at Mainely Water (that’s me) has spent more than 35 years learning to service just about every kind of water filter and water softener out there. I’ve been factory trained on many brands such as Evolve, RainSoft, Ionics, Cuno, Water Factory & 3M. I am (or have been) a factory authorized service provider for Ionics, Cuno, Northstar, LeverEdge, 3M Water, Haque Quality Water, Eco Water Systems, and others. I have access to original manufacturers parts and technical assistance if needed. While I may have to tell you that your old water filter or water softener is at the end of it’s life, more often I can fix the old one and save you a lot of money vs. buying a new one. Just let me have a look before you buy a new water softener from any company.
