FAQs
Why should I consider a professional water purification system for my McDonald home?
Municipal water in McDonald meets basic safety standards, but it can still contain minerals, chlorine, sediment, and trace contaminants that affect taste, odor, and appliance life. A professionally installed systemâsized and configured for your specific water profileâremoves or reduces these impurities, delivering cleaner drinking water, protecting plumbing fixtures, and extending the lifespan of dishwashers, water heaters, and other appliances.
How do your licensed technicians determine which purification system is right for my property?
Every installation starts with a complimentary on-site water test. Our technicians measure hardness, total dissolved solids (TDS), pH, iron, chlorine, and possible biological contaminants. We then discuss your familyâs water usage, space constraints, and budget. Using those results, we recommend targeted solutionsâsuch as carbon filtration for chlorine, reverse osmosis for drinking water, UV sterilization for bacteria, or a whole-house softener for hardnessâensuring you never pay for equipment you donât need.
What brands and technologies do you install and service?
We are certified dealers for leading manufacturers including Pentair, Aqua-Pure, Hellenbrand, and Watts. Our team regularly installs whole-house carbon filters, reverse osmosis (RO) units, UV disinfection lights, water softeners, and point-of-use alkaline systems. Because weâre brand-agnostic, we can repair or maintain nearly any system already in placeâeven if we didnât install it originally.
Are your plumbers licensed and insured to work in McDonald and surrounding areas?
Yes. Every technician who enters your home holds a Pennsylvania journeyman or master plumbing license, carries full liability and workersâ compensation insurance, and completes annual continuing-education credits on water treatment codes and best practices. We pull all required permits with McDonald Borough or Washington County, and our work is backed by both manufacturer warranties and our own workmanship guarantee.
How often will my purification system need maintenance?
Maintenance varies by system type and local water quality. As a rule of thumb: ⢠Carbon filter media: replace every 6â12 months. ⢠Reverse osmosis membranes: replace every 2â3 years; pre-filters every 6â12 months. ⢠UV lamps: change annually; quartz sleeve cleaning every 6 months. ⢠Water softener salt: replenish as needed; resin bed service every 5â7 years. We offer affordable maintenance plans that include scheduled filter changes, performance checks, and bacteria testing so you never have to track dates or inventory.
What should I expect regarding cost, and do you offer financing?
Basic point-of-use filters can start around $300 installed, while comprehensive whole-house multi-stage systems range from $1,500 to $4,500 depending on capacity and technology. After your water test, we provide a written, line-item estimateâno hidden fees. For larger projects, we partner with GreenSky and Synchrony to offer 0% promotional financing or low fixed-rate plans up to 60 months, subject to credit approval.
