FAQs
Why should homeowners in Erwin consider a whole-house water filtration system?
Erwin’s municipal and well water can contain minerals, chlorine by-products, sediment, and occasional agricultural runoff. A whole-house filtration system treats every drop of water as it enters your plumbing, providing cleaner, better-tasting water at every tap, protecting appliances from scale, and reducing skin and respiratory irritation caused by chlorine or contaminants.
What contaminants will the system remove?
Our multi-stage units typically include sediment pre-filters, activated carbon blocks, and optional specialty media. They reduce rust, sand, silt, chlorine, chloramines, pesticides, herbicides, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and unpleasant tastes or odors. With an added softening or anti-scale stage, they also address hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium common in Erwin’s water.
How is a whole-house filter installed and how long does it take?
A licensed plumber cuts into the main water line—usually where it enters the basement or utility room—and mounts the filtration system on the wall or a sturdy bracket. Bypass valves and shut-offs are installed for easy servicing. Most residential installations take 2–4 hours, and water service is interrupted for only about 30–45 minutes.
What ongoing maintenance is required?
Maintenance is straightforward: replace sediment and carbon cartridges every 6–12 months, depending on water quality and usage (our monitoring app or provided test strips help you know when). Anti-scale or softening media last 3–5 years. Annual check-ups ensure seals, O-rings, and pressure gauges remain in good condition.
Will a filtration system reduce my water pressure?
Properly sized systems are engineered for Erwin’s typical household flow rates (8–12 gallons per minute). We calculate peak demand before installation and use larger housings when needed. When cartridges are changed on schedule, you’ll notice little to no pressure drop—usually less than 3–5 psi.
What is the cost and return on investment?
Installed costs for most Erwin homes range from $1,200 to $3,500, depending on capacity and whether softening or UV disinfection is added. Over time, you save on bottled water, appliance repairs, soap and detergent usage, and plumbing maintenance. Many homeowners recoup the investment within 3–5 years while gaining healthier water and extending appliance life.
