Filtration
Discuss taste, odor, and the water used at your taps and showers. We explain the filtration selected for your supply and what it is designed to treat.
FAMILY FIRST WATER · NORTH BAY
Whole-home water filtration in Marin County.
Want better-tasting kitchen water or a whole-home treatment plan? We help Marin homeowners choose filtration, softening, and kitchen RO around their water supply and available space. You work directly with Jay on the quote and with our North Bay installer on the installation.
KNOW YOUR WATER SOURCE
Novato and the rest of Marin do not share one water report.
North Marin Water District describes Novato’s drinking-water sources as Russian River groundwater and Stafford Lake. Marin Water publishes its own annual report covering its sources, treatment, and testing. Use the utility named on your bill so the information matches the home.

Tell us what you notice at home and what you want the system to do. We’ll match the treatment plan to your supply and your household needs.
YOUR HOME’S WATER PLAN
Whole-home treatment.
Dedicated drinking water.
Softening
A softener removes calcium and magnesium that form hard-water scale. We review hardness and household demand when planning the system.
Kitchen RO
Legacy RO provides separate treatment for drinking and cooking water through a dedicated faucet at the kitchen sink.
PLAN THE INSTALLATION
Know where it goes.
Know what’s included.
Before an installation in Marin, we review access to the main water line, protected equipment space, a suitable drain, and any power requirements. Kitchen RO also needs cabinet space and a location for the drinking-water faucet. Send photos with your follow-up so we can plan the work clearly.
We explain where the equipment will go, what plumbing work is included, and how to care for it. You receive a written installed quote before deciding. For a private well, the treatment plan starts with the property’s water analysis.
