FAQs
What is a point-of-use (POU) water purification system and how does it differ from a whole-house filter?
A point-of-use system is installed at the exact location where you draw drinking or cooking water—most often under a kitchen sink or at a dedicated drinking faucet. It treats only the water that passes through that outlet. A whole-house (point-of-entry) filter, by contrast, is connected where water first enters your home and treats all water used for bathing, laundry, and cleaning as well. POU units are typically smaller, less expensive, and designed for high-quality purification (e.g., reverse osmosis, UV, carbon) where you need it most, while whole-house systems focus on general conditioning and sediment removal.
Why is a POU solution recommended for homes and businesses in Huntland?
Huntland’s municipal and well supplies can contain moderate hardness, chlorine used for disinfection, and occasional traces of agricultural runoff common in rural Tennessee. A POU system lets you target these aesthetic and health-related contaminants right where you drink and cook, without the cost of treating every gallon used to flush toilets or wash clothes. It’s an efficient way to ensure bottled-water quality even if the broader plumbing still carries minerals or residual disinfectants.
What contaminants will your POU system remove from Huntland’s water?
Our standard under-sink package combines sediment pre-filtration, catalytic carbon, reverse osmosis (RO), and an optional UV stage. Together they reduce or eliminate chlorine, chloramines, taste and odor compounds, lead, mercury, nitrates, dissolved salts, pesticides, micro-plastics, and 99.99 % of bacteria, viruses, and cysts. We also offer specialty cartridges for iron, manganese, or fluoride if a lab test shows elevated levels in your well or city supply.
How much maintenance is involved and how often do I need to change filters?
Most homeowners spend just a few minutes a year on maintenance: • Sediment/carbon pre-filter: replace every 6–12 months depending on usage and water quality. • RO membrane: 24–36 months on city water, 18–24 months on hard well water. • Post carbon polishing filter: annually. • UV lamp (if installed): once a year. A built-in flow meter and color-coded quick-connect cartridges make replacements simple, or you can schedule our Huntland plumbing team to perform an annual service visit.
Can the POU unit be added to my existing plumbing and how long does installation take?
Yes. The compact manifold mounts in the base cabinet and ties into the cold-water line with a saddle valve or flex connector. A ¼-inch line runs to a dedicated faucet we install on your sink deck or countertop. A small drain saddle is attached to the sink’s waste line for RO concentrate. Typical installation time is 1–2 hours with no major remodeling, and the system can be relocated if you move.
What does a complete POU purification setup cost and are financing options available?
Equipment prices range from about $325 for a 4-stage RO unit with faucet to $750 for a 6-stage RO/UV system. Professional installation in Huntland runs $150–$250, and annual filter costs average $60–$120, depending on water usage. We offer 0 % same-as-cash financing for up to 12 months and discounted service plans that bundle replacement cartridges and labor at a fixed yearly rate.
