FAQs
Why should Jamestown homeowners consider a whole-home water filtration system?
Jamestown’s municipal and well water sources can contain minerals, chlorine by-products, sediment, and trace contaminants from agricultural runoff. A whole-home filtration system treats every tap at the point where water enters your plumbing, ensuring cleaner, better-tasting water for drinking, bathing, laundry, and cooking while reducing scale buildup in pipes and appliances.
What types of contaminants will a whole-home filter remove?
Our multi-stage systems typically include sediment pre-filters, catalytic carbon, and optional UV or specialty media. These stages can remove sand, rust, chlorine, chloramines, PFAS, VOCs, sulfur odors, pesticides, and microbial cysts. A complimentary water test lets us tailor the filter combination to Jamestown’s specific water profile and your household’s needs.
How is a whole-home filtration system installed, and how long does it take?
Installation is performed by our licensed plumbers at the main water line—usually in the basement or utility room. We shut off the water, cut a section of pipe, mount the filtration tanks or cartridges, and integrate a bypass valve for easy service. Most standard installs take 3–5 hours, and your water service is disrupted for only 30–60 minutes.
What maintenance is required after installation?
Maintenance is straightforward. Sediment and carbon cartridges are replaced every 6–12 months, depending on water usage and quality. Tank-based systems using backwashing media regenerate automatically and need a media top-off every 5–7 years. UV lamps (if installed) are swapped annually. We offer affordable maintenance plans and reminders so you never have to worry about the schedule.
How much does a whole-home filtration system cost in Jamestown?
Pricing depends on flow rate, media type, and any add-ons like UV or water softening. An entry-level cartridge system starts around $1,200 installed, while premium backwashing carbon units range from $2,500–$3,800. Financing options and utility rebates may reduce out-of-pocket costs. We provide a written, itemized quote after your free in-home water test.
Will a whole-home filter affect water pressure or require a water softener too?
Properly sized systems maintain household flow rates of 8–15 gallons per minute, so you shouldn’t notice pressure loss. If Jamestown’s hard water (typically 7–10 grains per gallon) is causing scale on fixtures or in appliances, we can integrate a salt-free conditioner or traditional softener downstream of the filtration unit. This combination delivers both purified and softened water throughout your home.
