What We Offer

From reverse osmosis drinking water systems to whole-home water softeners, G&B Water Conditioning carries a full lineup of solutions for the most common water quality problems in Michigan homes. Explore our products and services below, or stop by our store in Portland to talk through your options with our team.

Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water

Is your tap water safe to drink? For most households, the answer is yes, but “safe” doesn’t always mean “great.” Municipal water quality standards set only minimum requirements, and contaminants can still enter your water as it travels through miles of pipes before reaching your faucet. Even well water comes with its own set of concerns.

That’s where reverse osmosis comes in. Our Nelsen Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Systems filter your water through a semi-permeable membrane that removes unwanted substances, including heavy metals like lead, mercury, and cadmium, as well as chlorine, nitrates, dissolved solids, and more. The result is clean, great-tasting water right from your own kitchen tap.

The best part? You get the quality of bottled water at a fraction of the cost, without the trips to the store or the plastic waste. Our systems are compact, affordable, and installed right under your sink. We also carry both 4-stage and 5-stage RO systems, so we can match the right solution to your water and your home.

Residential Water Softeners

If you’ve noticed scale buildup around your faucets, dry skin after showering, or spots on your dishes straight out of the dishwasher, hard water may be to blame. Hard water is water with a high concentration of calcium and magnesium minerals. It’s extremely common in Michigan, and while it’s not harmful to your health, it can take a real toll on your home over time.

Our G&B Water Solutions residential water softeners work using a process called ion exchange. The system swaps out hardness minerals for sodium ions, leaving your water noticeably softer. The results are felt throughout the entire house:

  • Bathroom: Soap and shampoo lather better. Hair and skin feel softer and less dry.

No more soap scum or mineral deposits on sinks, showers, and tubs.

  • Kitchen: Dishes come out spot-free and glasses stay clear.
  • Laundry: Clothes and towels come out softer, brighter, and last longer.

Soft water can extend the life of clothing and linens by up to 33%.

  • Appliances: Water heaters, dishwashers, and washing machines can wear out up to

  30% faster with hard water. Soft water helps your appliances run better and last longer.

Our systems feature a professional series control valve with built-in power outage backup, simple diagnostics, and smart regeneration controls that only regenerate when necessary, saving you salt and water. We offer multiple system sizes to fit your household’s needs.

Air Injection Oxidation

Does your water smell like rotten eggs? Are your sinks or toilets showing orange staining? You’re not alone. Iron and sulfur in well water are two of the most common water quality complaints we hear, and they can make daily life genuinely unpleasant if left untreated.

The G&B AIO® (Air Injection Oxidation) Filter System is a highly efficient, single-tank solution that tackles iron, sulfur, and manganese using nature’s own process: oxidation. The system maintains a pocket of air at the top of the filter tank. As water passes through that air pocket, iron, sulfur, and manganese are oxidized and then captured by the media bed, removing them from your water before they ever reach your tap.

Unlike some competing systems, our AIO features patented Control Flow Technology that slowly and quietly releases the air pocket during regeneration, protecting your plumbing and keeping noise to a minimum. The system is also smart enough to delay regeneration if water is currently being used in your home.

Best of all, the AIO is chemical-free. There’s no need for air tanks, feed pumps, or harsh chemicals. If orange staining and sulfur smell have been a problem in your home, the AIO system may be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

Residential & Light Commercial Twin Softeners

For households or light commercial properties with higher water demands, our Residential & Light Commercial Twin Softener systems offer continuous soft water 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. That’s something a single-tank softener simply can’t deliver.

Here’s the difference: a standard single-tank softener has to pause service and go into regeneration mode to recharge itself. During that window, your water isn’t being softened. A twin tank system solves this by automatically switching over to the second tank before the first goes into regeneration. The result is uninterrupted soft water at every faucet in your home or business, with no gaps and no hard water surprises in the middle of the night.

Twin softener systems are ideal for:

  • Larger families with high daily water usage
  • Homes with multiple bathrooms or laundry setups
  • Light commercial properties like small offices or salon spaces
  • Anyone who simply doesn’t want to think about it, because the system handles everything automatically

Like our single-tank softeners, our twin systems feature a professional series control valve, high-quality chlorine-resistant resin, and smart regeneration that only runs when needed. Multiple sizes are available to match your specific needs.

Sediment Filters

Even before hardness minerals, iron, or sulfur become a concern, many homeowners deal with a more basic issue: visible particles, dirt, and sediment in their water. Sediment can come from aging pipes, well systems, or municipal water sources, and while it often looks worse than it is, it can clog fixtures, wear down appliances, and shorten the lifespan of your other water treatment equipment.

A sediment filter acts as a first line of defense, capturing suspended particles before they ever enter your home’s plumbing. Installing one upstream of a softener or RO system also helps those systems perform better and last longer. Think of it as protecting your investment.

G&B Water Conditioning carries sediment filter options suited for residential and light commercial applications. Our team can help you determine the right micron rating and filter type for your water source and usage.
