The Atlas · Encino, Los Angeles County, CA

Water filtration in Encino.

Encino has a large share of homes built before 1990, and those older copper supply lines interact differently with chloramine than modern PEX does. Chloramine is more aggressive on older copper fittings than free chlorine was. A whole home filter with a properly rated catalytic carbon stage protects both the water you drink and the plumbing it runs through.

The Water — Where it comes from

The local supply, in plain language.

Encino is served by Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. LADWP blend of State Water Project, Los Angeles Aqueduct, Colorado River via MWD, and San Fernando Basin groundwater. Disinfected with chloramine.
