How Nuvia started
Nuvia Water was established in 2012 by Ron Johnson, who started it to help homeowners understand the quality of the water in their homes. Early on, Nuvia saw a gap in the industry: little choice in whole-home water filtration and in long-term treatment for hard water. So it developed its own systems, built around higher-efficiency filtration media and smart valves.

About Nuvia Water Group - The Nuvia Story
Established in 2012, Nuvia Water was founded to help homeowners improve water quality, air quality, and overall home wellness through advanced filtration technology.
Nuvia began with a mission to educate families about residential water quality and provide better-performing solutions for hard water, contaminants, and everyday water concerns. Early on, we identified a major gap in the industry: limited innovation in whole home water filtration systems, salt free water softener technology, and long-term hard water treatment solutions.
To raise the standard for modern home water filtration, Nuvia developed advanced systems engineered with high-efficiency filtration media, intelligent valve technology, and multi-stage treatment performance designed to improve water throughout the entire home.
Our commitment to innovation led to the development of the Nuvia Pro — an Advanced Dual Tank Seven Stage whole house water filtration and water refining system — followed by the Nuvia Signature, an upgraded Single Tank 4-Stage home water filtration solution designed for reliable everyday performance.
These systems were built to help homeowners address common water issues including:
- Hard water buildup
- Chlorine taste and odor
- Scale accumulation
- Dry skin and hair caused by hard water
- Sediment and water impurities
- Long-term appliance protection
As demand for healthier homes continued to grow, Nuvia expanded beyond water treatment into indoor air quality solutions. Today, Nuvia offers whole home air purifier systems, UV air purification technology, and HVAC air purifier solutions designed to support cleaner indoor environments alongside cleaner water.
In addition to whole house water filtration systems, Nuvia also provides reverse osmosis water filter solutions, under sink RO systems, and alkaline drinking water systems that help deliver cleaner, better-tasting drinking water directly from the tap.
Every Nuvia system is designed with performance, reliability, and homeowner comfort in mind. Our certified, next-generation water filtration and air purification technologies continue to help families create safer, healthier, and more efficient homes across the United States and Canada.
Whether you are looking for a water softener alternative, a complete whole home water filtration system, or advanced reverse osmosis drinking water solutions, Nuvia is committed to helping you find the right solution for your home.

The Nuvia Story
Established in 2012, Nuvia Water was founded due to the lack of consumer awareness regarding questionable residential water quality.
While serving our mission to educate and supply the water softening needs of communities in California and Texas, Nuvia recognized the industry’s lack of innovation and the lack of product selection. In order to improve the standard of living, we took it upon ourselves to develop technologically advanced systems that used more efficient filtration media and smart valves to enhance water quality.
In the process of evolving our technology, we engineered the Advanced Dual Tank Seven Stage Water Softening and Water Refining Nuvia Pro. Soon after, we released the Upgraded Single Tank 4-Stage Water Softening and Water Refining Nuvia Signature.
With the Advanced 7-Stage Nuvia Pro and the Upgraded 4-Stage Nuvia Signature as our flagship systems, more and more customers recognized our commitment to improving their way of life by delivering exceptional service and products.
As we continued to innovate, improve, and introduce modernized Enhanced Water Refining Systems to consumers, Nuvia decided to expand its focus into helping eliminate indoor respiratory threats with Enhanced Air Purifiers. This proved to be just as important as improving water quality, as evidenced by COVID-19.
Ultimately, we are dedicated to improving our clients’ lifestyles with next-generation Enhanced Water Refining Systems and Enhanced Air Purifiers that improve the standard of living within the home. This principle is validated by certifications from stringent third-party agencies and standards bodies. Nuvia’s priority is to help elevate our customers’ comfort, health, and safety through sincere service.

What Nuvia offers
Whole-home water systems. Five systems, each with a different job:
- Softening: the Nuvia Signature (single tank, four stages), the Nuvia Pro (dual tank, seven stages) and the Nuvia Simplicity.
- Scale conditioning: the Nuvia Advantage with Scale Shield, a conditioner rather than a traditional softener.
- Carbon filtration: the Nuvia Carbon CRS, which removes chlorine. It does not soften or prevent scale.
See whole-house water filtration for how they differ.
Drinking water. Nuvia offers under-sink reverse osmosis systems and alkaline drinking water systems. See reverse osmosis drinking water.
Indoor air. Nuvia also offers whole-home air purifiers, UV air purification and HVAC air purifiers.
Built around Southern California water
Southern California water is hard and mineral-heavy. Every Orange County city in our hard water by city table publishes very hard water, and every Orange County agency report we could read lists a supply above the EPA's 500 mg/L guideline for total dissolved solids. Nuvia Water, founded in 2012, works with this water every day. We install salt-based softeners, salt-free conditioners, whole-house filtration and reverse osmosis drinking water systems, and every one is chosen and sized from a water analysis at your own tap.
Where Nuvia works
Nuvia Water serves homeowners across Southern California, with a focus on Orange County and the Inland Empire. Your first step can be a free in-home water analysis, where you see your own numbers before anyone talks about a system.
