Plus, refined water that prevents scaling and doubles the life of appliances
Many people take for granted the water in their home — both working water used for taking showers and washing clothes, and drinking water for making coffee and ice cubes.
It’s not until their showerheads become corroded with mineral build up, or their ice cubes look cloudy, do many families consider a water treatment and purification system for their home.
Unfortunately, by the time they do, the damage often has already been done to home appliances, faucets and grout which have become pitted, scratched, stained and may even require replacement.
The good news is that all of these symptoms of poor water quality can be resolved with a quality home water system that pays for itself in just a few years. Refined water also extends the life of a hot water heater because less sediment is deposited in the tank.
Like many of her customers, Dana Spears, owner of Cornerstone Air Conditioning, Plumbing & Electrical in Land O’ Lakes, also waited too long before installing a water treatment and purification system in her home.
A wife and mother of five children, Dana and her husband, James, built a new home four years ago.
“We didn’t think to put in a water system them, and that was a huge mistake because today my beautiful, expensive kitchen and bathroom faucets are pitted and scratched, my grout is cracking and there is so much corrosion in my dishwasher that we need to replace it,” said Dana.
Cornerstone’s Plumbing Department has always offered water treatment, but Dana found a real need to expand this area for her customers.
“Not only did my family home need a water system, but many of our customers were also inquiring about what system was best for their home,” said Dana.
Dana and her team researched dozens of manufacturers and systems, and selected Westinghouse because of its effectiveness, efficiency and 10-year guarantee.
“Westinghouse also offered Cornerstone exclusivity, which means we are the only plumbing company in the area that can sell their exceptional water systems,” said Dana.
The Westinghouse Progressive Revolution Series works 24 hours a day delivering clean, soft working water to the entire house. Its refined water makes clothes and linens softer and brighter, and kitchen and bathroom faucets and showerheads become free of water spots, soap scum and scaling that restricts water flow.
For drinking water, the Westinghouse system delivers fresh, purified water on demand from a special faucet installed at the kitchen sink. Its technology removes nearly all of the contaminants in city water, and leaves nothing but pure, clean, fresh tasting water.
“If you’re buying bottled water, you can stop. And if you’re relying on faucet or refrigerator filters, this gives your family a much higher level of purity,” said Dana. “Essentially, you get unlimited bottled water — just think how much money you will save because you will no longer need to buy bottled water!”
As sediment builds up, it doesn’t take long for water coming from a faucet that is not treated first by a purification system to taste like minerals and even look a bit cloudy. Many families spend $20 or more on bottled water for their family a week, Dana explains.
Cornerstone also installs water treatment and purification systems for homes on well water. Well water is tested for iron, bacteria and other elements, and the system custom designed to meets the specific needs of a family’s well.
The Westinghouse system can be installed same day or next in most homes with city water, especially in newer homes that are pre-plumbed for a water treatment system. Homes on a well may take up to two weeks for the testing and installation to be completed
Cornerstone’s licensed plumbers are trained by Westinghouse and are certified to install its systems. Every installation is different, and all are integrated with the home’s water system. All work is guaranteed and under warranty for a full year.
Cornerstone was founded in 2006 as an air conditioning service company. In 2012, it expanded into plumbing services, and two years later added electrical services. Its phones are answered 24/7, and technicians are available around the clock, including weekends and holidays.

Why Refined Water?
Pure, clean, fresh tasting water. The purification process removes nearly all of the contaminants in your city or well water and gives you a limitless supply of higher quality drinking water.
Save money: Pure, crystal clear water from your faucet means you can stop buying bottled water for your home.
No hard water spots and soap residue: Glassware comes straight from the dishwasher, crystal clear. The same goes for stemware and flatware.
Soft skin after shaving and bathing: Rinses away all soap and cleaning products completely, leaving you with soft manageable skin and hair. Razorblades last longer and you can shave closer.
Water becomes a powerful solvent – all by itself: Refined water will lift stains and clean surfaces, plus eliminate tough stains brought on by your old harsh water. Refined water also reduces the time it takes to clean your home, and also the need for harsh and sometimes toxic cleaners.
About Westinghouse
The Westinghouse Progressive Revolution Series uses a revolutionary chambered tank with a lift-and-spin water distribution system, that combines treated water brining, demand metering and counter-current regeneration.
Its EcoFlow Regeneration refers to the self-cleaning process of the Progressive Series Westinghouse refiner. The regeneration is computer controlled to maximize the efficiency of the cleaning process.
The system’s settings are stored in a memory similar to that of a home computer. If the system loses power, even for days or weeks, no service call is needed to reprogram the system once power is restored. In addition, all Westinghouse refiners provide their own backup power with 12 hours of carry-over power.
Westinghouse water refiners are now certified by IAPMO Research and Testing and are in compliance with the International Plumbing Code.
