FAQs
Why should Apison homeowners consider a whole-house filtration and purification system?
Apison residents rely on a mix of municipal and private well sources that can contain sediment, chlorine by-products, iron, sulfur odors, agricultural runoff, and hard-water minerals. A professionally sized whole-house filter treats every drop as it enters your plumbing, so every tap—kitchen, bath, laundry, and outdoor spigots—gets cleaner, better-tasting water. The result is healthier drinking and cooking water, softer skin and hair, longer-lasting appliances, and fewer scale or rust stains on fixtures.
How does a whole-house water purification system actually work?
Our systems connect to the main water line where it enters your home. Water first passes through a sediment pre-filter that captures sand, silt, and rust flakes common in Apison distribution lines. Next, a catalytic carbon or mixed-media tank adsorbs chlorine, chloramines, pesticides, and volatile organic compounds. If needed, an additional stage such as KDF (for heavy metals) or an up-flow neutralizer (for acidic well water) is added. Optional UV disinfection provides a final barrier against bacteria and viruses. The treated water then flows to your water heater and cold-water lines, supplying the entire house with purified water around the clock.
What specific contaminants found in Apison’s water can your system remove?
Recent testing in the greater Hamilton County area shows detectable levels of chlorine, THMs (trihalomethanes), hardness minerals (calcium and magnesium), iron, manganese, and occasional traces of agricultural chemicals like atrazine. Private wells can also show sulfur-producing bacteria and low-level lead from older plumbing. Our multi-stage filtration removes or significantly reduces: • Sediment down to 5 microns • 97–99% of chlorine and chloramine • 99% of THMs and VOCs • Up to 10 ppm of iron and manganese • Hard-water scale with optional softening module • 99.99% of microbial pathogens with UV. We perform a free on-site water analysis to tailor media and flow rate to your exact water profile.
How much maintenance does the system require, and can I do it myself?
Maintenance is minimal. The sediment pre-filter cartridge is replaced every 3–6 months, a 5-minute DIY task requiring only a filter wrench we provide. The main carbon or media tank is back-washing and self-cleaning; the granular carbon media typically lasts 5–7 years before a professional re-bed is needed. UV lamps (if installed) are changed once a year. We offer affordable annual service plans, but most homeowners choose to change pre-filters themselves and call us only when the media life ends—no tools beyond the filter wrench are necessary.
What does a whole-house system cost in Apison, and are financing options available?
A properly sized system for a typical 2–3 bath Apison home ranges from $1,600 to $3,500 installed, depending on water chemistry, flow rate, and whether extras like softening or UV are needed. Larger homes or well water with high iron/sulfur may cost more. We provide written, line-item quotes after your free water test. We partner with local lenders to offer 0% interest for 12 months or low-interest plans up to 60 months, making clean water attainable for most budgets.
How long does installation take, and will it disrupt my household?
Most installations are completed in one morning—about 3–5 hours. Our licensed plumbers shut off the main line briefly, cut into the plumbing, set the media tank and bypass valves, and start up the system. Water is typically off for less than 45 minutes. We place the system in a garage, crawl space, or utility room to minimize space usage. When we leave, you’ll have full water pressure and immediate access to filtered water; no flushing of lines by the homeowner is required.
