Is a Whole House Filtration System Right for You?

Whole house water filtration is a worthy investment to guarantee the water supplied to your home is safe for various everyday activities including drinking, washing, brushing your teeth, to laundry, bathing, cooking, making ice, and more. While an under-the-sink or point-of-use (POU) nanofiltration or reverse osmosis (RO) system may be sufficient to target a specific application, for example the tap for drinking water, a whole house filter treats all the water in your house from a point of entry (POE) connection to the main water line.

There are many benefits to treating the water that flows through your home, not only to remove harmful contaminants and bacteria that could cause illness, but also to remove the chemicals that dry out skin and hair and cause hard water, making washing difficult. Treating your water from the POE can reduce costly maintenance in the future for the life of your plumbing and appliances by protecting them from sediment and scale buildup.

Types of Whole House Filters & Replacement Parts

• Whole House Carbon Water Filters - The most effective way to remove chemicals like chlorine and chloramine added to water as a disinfecting agent. Carbon filters are also effective in removing odors and taste from the water.
• Whole House Sediment Filters - Typically used with other systems such as RO filtration or nanofiltration as a pre-filter to remove dirt, large particles, and debris suspended in the water supply. While these filters do not remove bacteria and other microorganisms, they increase the effectiveness and efficiency of other filters while also reducing sediment buildup that can be detrimental to your plumbing system and appliances.
• Whole House Water Softeners - Removes hardness minerals like magnesium and calcium and replaces with sodium ions to reduce scale. Our water softeners and media filters are equipped with automatic control valves for easy regeneration and backwash cycles.
• Whole House Anti-Scale Water Treatment - Also known as salt-free water conditioners, anti-scale treatments alter the property of minerals that create scale buildup particularly in pipes, water heater tanks, and other appliances. The minerals are turned into a crystalline form that does not adhere to surfaces, reducing scale buildup and protecting the water supply from being contaminated. Because they change the mineral property rather than removing them, anti-scale treatments cannot soften hard water, but are easier to maintain because they are salt-free and do not require backwashing.
• Whole House UV Systems - Ultraviolet purification disinfects water without the use of harsh chemical additives. Sediment filtration is needed prior to UV treatment to remove debris that may block the UV light from reaching the bacteria. UV purification systems do not remove contaminants from the water and are most effective when used paired with your RO filtration system.
