FAQs
Why should I schedule an in-home water analysis in Mulberry?
A professional analysis gives you a clear picture of what is actually in your water, whether you are on Mulberry’s municipal supply or a private well. The test identifies hardness minerals that damage plumbing, chlorine or chloramine that affect taste, and possible contaminants from agriculture or aging pipes. Knowing your exact water profile lets us recommend the right purification equipment, helps protect your family’s health, and can extend the life of appliances and fixtures.
What contaminants do you test for during the visit?
Our standard on-site kit screens for water hardness (calcium and magnesium), iron, manganese, sulfur, pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), chlorine/chloramine, and turbidity. We also perform spot checks for lead, nitrates/nitrites, and bacteria indicators. If the initial results raise concerns, we can take samples for certified laboratory analysis of heavy metals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), PFAS, and other emerging contaminants.
How long does an in-home analysis take and what should I expect?
A typical appointment lasts 30–45 minutes. A certified technician will collect samples from your kitchen tap and possibly an outside spigot, run a series of field tests, and record the readings on the spot. You’ll receive an easy-to-read report explaining each result and what it means for your home. The technician will answer questions and outline treatment options if needed—there’s no obligation to purchase a system during the visit.
If Mulberry’s city water is already treated, why would I still need a purification system?
Municipal treatment focuses on meeting minimum safety standards at the plant. By the time water travels through miles of mains and your household plumbing, it can pick up metals, sediment, and disinfectant by-products that affect taste, odor, and long-term health. A point-of-use purifier or whole-home system polishes the water just before you use it, removing residual chlorine, hardness, and other contaminants that municipal treatment leaves behind.
What purification solutions can you install based on my test results?
We tailor recommendations to your water profile and budget. Options include whole-house carbon filtration for chlorine and chemicals, salt-based or salt-free water softeners for hardness, iron/sulfur filters for well water, reverse osmosis (RO) units for drinking water, and UV disinfection for bacteria. All equipment is NSF/ANSI-certified, sized to your household’s flow rate, and installed by licensed Mulberry plumbers. Ongoing maintenance plans are available to keep systems performing optimally.
How much does the analysis and a new purification system cost?
Our basic on-site water analysis is free for Mulberry residents. A comprehensive laboratory package starts at $149 if advanced testing is requested. Purification system pricing varies: point-of-use RO units generally range from $850–$1,200 installed, while whole-home softener and filtration packages typically cost between $3,500 and $5,000, including professional installation and the first year of maintenance. We offer flexible financing and bundle discounts when multiple systems are installed together.
