Our Services
Carson City sits in the high desert, and the water that reaches your tap reflects that. Between mineral-heavy groundwater, municipal disinfectants, and older pipes in established neighborhoods, plenty of local homeowners notice spots on their dishes, a chlorine smell in the shower, or water that just doesn’t taste the way they’d like. A properly installed filtration system can change all of that.
At Bighorn Plumbing, we help Carson City families choose and install water filtration systems that fit their home, their water, and their budget. As a locally owned, family-operated company founded by Jesse and Trebeca Itzen in 2023, we take the time to explain your options clearly so you can make a confident decision: no pressure, no surprise charges, and no one-size-fits-all sales pitch.
How a Water Filtration System Cleans the Water in Your Carson City Home
A water filtration system works by passing your water through one or more filter stages before it reaches your faucets, fixtures, or appliances. Each stage is designed to catch something different.
Sediment filters trap sand, rust, and other small particles that can travel through supply lines. Activated carbon filters absorb chlorine, chemical odors, and many compounds that affect taste. Reverse osmosis systems push water through a very fine membrane that removes a much wider range of dissolved substances, which is why they’re often used for drinking and cooking water.
Where the system goes depends on your goals. A whole-home system connects at the point where water enters your house, so every tap and appliance gets treated water. A point-of-use system sits under a kitchen sink or near a specific fixture and treats water only at that location. During installation, our plumbers handle the connections, bypass valves, and pressure considerations so the system works smoothly without slowing your water flow.

Warning Signs Your Home Is Ready for Water Filtration Installation
Water problems often creep up slowly, so many Carson City homeowners don’t realize how much their water is affecting daily life until they see the difference. Here are some common signs it may be time to consider filtration:
- Your tap water tastes or smells like chlorine, metal, or sulfur.
- White, chalky buildup keeps forming on faucets and showerheads.
- Dishes come out of the dishwasher spotty or cloudy.
- Your water looks discolored or has visible particles.
- Your home runs on a private well with no treatment system.
