About Aqua Shield NM
Our Story and Local Roots
Aqua Shield NM was founded with one goal in mind - to make dependable, high-quality water treatment accessible to families and businesses throughout New Mexico.
Our story began right here in Rio Rancho, where our team saw a growing need for local experts who could deliver not only proven water solutions but also honest, neighborly service. We’ve spent decades working in this industry, and over the years, one thing has always stood out: great water isn’t just about cleaner dishes or softer laundry - it’s about the peace of mind that comes from knowing your home and your family is protected.
As a locally owned and operated business, we understand the unique water challenges that come with living in New Mexico...
...from mineral-heavy hard water to fluctuating pressure and taste concerns. That’s why we built Aqua Shield NM on a foundation of trust, community, and genuine care. We believe that “everyone deserves clean water” isn’t just a slogan; it’s a promise we stand behind with every consultation, installation, and follow-up visit.
To us, helping our neighbors means listening first, recommending thoughtfully, and treating each and every home as if it were our own.

What Our Customers Say
Matt Bowen did a great presentation and we decided to go with the system. Main reasons was we recently remodeled our bathroom and wanted to protect it from the calcium build up. We also wanted to get away from the bottled water and get some good clean drinking water. I'm able to use it for my coffee, ice tray, and cooking. We noticed a difference with the shower and my hair looked pretty and soft. We highly recommend the system and Matt for any of your water treatment needs. The plumber Izaiah was really nice and did a great job with the install.
Great customer service and communication! Matt was helpful to work with and identified our need for Rain Soft through several tests of visibility, feel and taste. There is an immediate difference noticed in the quality with a Rain Soft Water System and we are happy to be converting to clean water. Thank you!
We had a great experience getting our water system installed! The customer service was excellent from start to finish. Sean, the gentleman who came to our home, was polite, professional, and very knowledgeable — he took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we understood how the system works. We’re very happy with the results and highly recommend this company for anyone considering a water system in New Mexico.
