Water Filtration Installation and Repair Experts

Why Filter Potable Water?

Filtering potable water might seem odd at first blush. Since potable water is deemed safe, why filter it? That’s partially true. Even though potable water meets the basic standards set by the EPA, it often contains contaminants such as chlorine and bacteria. They can lead to off-putting odors. Filters work to remove these toxic elements from your water, providing a more economical alternative to bottled water.

What Are Some Different Filtering Systems?

There are many different water filtration systems available, and we can install any of them. Three of the most common filtering systems are the pitcher system, the whole house system, and the tap water purification system:

Pitcher System

The pitcher system, popularized by Brita, has become widely used in the United States. These systems are known to significantly improve the taste of fridge-dispensed water. A pitcher system generally lasts between one to four months before needing a new filter, depending on how much it is used.

Tap Water Purification System

Tap water purification systems include small filters attached to the taps throughout the home. These filters provide clear, pure-tasting water at the flick of a switch. In many cases, a tap water system is all that’s needed for drinking and cooking.

Whole House System

A whole house system treats all the water in the household, clearing out contaminants, including iron and minerals. Such impurities can cause stains on clothing, bathtubs, toilets, and sinks.

Which Is the Best Filtering Installation?
