The company is owned and operated by Water Quality Association (WQA) -Certified water filtration specialists, and its engineering team and technical staff have been actively solving water quality issues for over 10 years. WECO takes pride in supplying high-quality products.

The company was founded on the principle of forming strong, strategic partnerships with customers by listening to their needs and responding with effective and reliable water filtration systems. WECO offers extensive expertise from system design to technical review, with the vision of providing customers with superior products and services, saving them time and money.

WECO conducts comprehensive assessments and testing of each component integrated into its filtration systems, employing top-tier components and water purification units. The company's commitment to quality entails subjecting its products to rigorous testing, ensuring their performance aligns with the intended standards.

Customers come first for WECO - before, during, and after the sale, delivery, and installation of any of its water filtration systems and components. The company ships using all the major carriers, including UPS, FedEx, and USPS, and offers will call or local pickup services for customers in Southern California.

WECO offers solutions to address a diverse range of water concerns, from problems like the smell and taste of hydrogen sulfide (resembling rotten eggs) to issues with water hardness, tannins, radionuclides, chlorine, chloramine, total dissolved solids (TDS), fluoride, nitrates, pH levels, turbidity, iron, lead, and PFOS. The company's consultation services are provided at no cost.

An extensive array of water purification systems is available from WECO, catering to both whole-house needs and drinking water-only solutions. The company also provides tailored solutions for commercial water treatment, including reverse osmosis, deionization, and water softening.

WECO's carbon for drinking water filter applications can enhance taste and odor, effectively eliminate or reduce chlorine and chloramine chemicals present in city water, and diminish organics and other substances found in well water. Granular activated carbon finds application in whole-house point-of-entry canister filters, effectively enhancing the taste and odor of water, as well as reducing chlorine/chloramine levels in city water and removing organics from well water.

Higher flow rates can be achieved by using larger volume mineral tanks filled up to specifications with granular activated carbon. This media can effectively remove offensive taste and odor problems in well and municipal water, and it can be reused over and over by utilizing mineral tanks with backwashing control valves.

Properly sized carbon vessels can treat chlorine, chloramine, benzene, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), heavy metals, and more contaminants in water. The coconut shell carbon media is made from select grade coconut shells, activated by high-temperature steam and acid-washed to create a large surface area and a highly developed pore structure. It can effectively remove organic contaminants, odors, tastes, color, and turbidity from water.

This media is ideal for water filter applications such as cartridge manufacturing, point-of-entry canister filters, backwashing filters, and ultra-pure water systems, improving the quality of water for potable, beverage, kidney dialysis, and hemodialysis use. It can also eliminate or reduce chlorine and chloramine chemicals present in city water and diminish organics and other substances found in well water.

The media has a high mechanical hardness and chemical stability, allowing it to handle high flow rates and last longer than regular carbon media. It can be reused by backwashing and regenerating with water and air, and it has a neutral pH, compatible with most water treatment equipment and does not leach harmful substances into water.
