Acidic water is not something that you want your family consuming or running through the plumbing in your home. A measure of the relative acidity of the water. 7 is neutral; below 7 is acidic. When the pH is low, the water is described as acidic. Acidic water can leach metals out of the plumbing system, causing plumbing, staining and taste problems. Dissolved copper will be left behind in showers and sinks, leading to a blue-green stain after the water evaporates, and weakening the plumbing system over time. Lead and copper can dissolve into the water leading to a “penny-like” taste to the water, and causing the water to flunk the health related parameters for lead and copper content.

Treatment options for low pH, acidic water
Low pH, or acidic water can be determined by a free water test. Because every home is different, in order to recommend a system for your water problem, we offer a free site evaluation, do some testing, learn about your water use patterns and your preferences.
Upflow Neutralizer
To control corrosion and stop blue-green staining by raising the pH of acidic water. The Kinetico upflow neutralizer has over 2 cubic feet of neutralizing media, offering the most consistent pH elevation. This is a non-backwashing, non-electric system, offering a simple alternative to other neutralizing approaches. This is an excellent choice for houses with smaller well pumps or where a no backwash operation is desired.
Powerline Downflow
To control corrosion, stop blue-green staining and remove sediment by raising the pH of acidic water using a bed of calcite and a backwashing valve that assures the bed of media is kept clean. This filter is available in many sizes to accommodate the flow rate in your home and to assure consistent pH elevation.
2100f Filter
For higher flow rates and larger homes, the 2100f controls corrosion, stops blue-green staining and removes sediment by raising the pH of acidic water using a bed of calcite and a backwashing valve that keeps the bed of media clean. The twin-tank system has a total of 3 cubic feet of media assuring pH elevation for larger homes or problem water. The non-electric, demand-initiated regeneration valve assures the most efficient and reliable operation possible.

From start to finish they exceeded my expectations. My hard earned money was well spent on my new Kinetico system, making our water safer for my family. I am stunned by their attention to detail and fantastic customer service. I would give more stars if I could!
Prior to the appointment, the people we spoke with answered many questions that we threw at them (often several communications) which we greatly appreciated. We also appreciated that they gave us a quote based on what we really needed and did not try to sell us anything we did not need.
Very happy with our water softener and the customer service at Secondwind Water Systems! We worked with Nate Clark and can’t say enough about him and the gentleman who installed our system!! We recommend them and their system to anyone!!!
Jesse was professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. The installation went smoothly and the crew did an excellent job on the install, great attention to detail. The entire process was second to none. I would happily refer customers to you and would be happy to be a reference.
As always it was a pleasure doing business with your company and personnel. Always pleasant and informative and attentive to our concerns or issues. Everyone who services our system every year as well as the techs who installed our new system are a pleasure to deal with.
Terrific company to work with! Awesome products. We did lots of research and had 3 quotes before choosing Secondwind for our water softener and the K5 Reverse Osmosis system. Both systems are topnotch and have changed the livability in our house greatly. We worked with Nate Clark who was so professional, knowledgeable and kind. When he says to contact him with any questions at any point, it’s clear he means it. They stand by their work and products. Truly couldn’t recommend Secondwind more.
