FAQs
What types of water purification systems do you install in Pikeville homes and businesses?
We specialize in whole-house carbon filtration units, reverse osmosis (RO) drinking-water systems, ultraviolet (UV) disinfection lamps, and combination setups that integrate sediment pre-filters with advanced media such as catalytic carbon and KDF. Each system is selected and sized based on Pikeville’s municipal or well-water test results, the building’s plumbing layout, and the customer’s consumption patterns.
How do I know which purification technology is right for my water quality concerns?
Our process starts with a free on-site water analysis that measures hardness, pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), iron, manganese, chlorine, and bacterial activity. We review the lab results with you, outline the contaminants present, and then recommend the appropriate technology—RO for dissolved minerals/metals, carbon for taste/odor/chlorine, UV for microbial safety, or a hybrid system when multiple issues exist. This data-driven approach ensures the solution is neither under- nor over-engineered.
Will a whole-house purification system reduce my water pressure?
Properly sized units and correctly installed bypass valves keep pressure loss to a minimum—typically less than 3–5 psi, which most residents will not notice. We perform a pre-install flow-rate test, choose filters with adequate surface area, and use full-port fittings to maintain optimal pressure throughout your plumbing network.
How often do filters, membranes, or UV lamps need service?
Service intervals vary with water quality and usage, but average timelines are: • Sediment/carbon combo cartridges: 6–12 months • RO membranes: 2–3 years (longer if pre-filtration is in place) • UV lamps: annual replacement (the quartz sleeve is cleaned simultaneously) Our maintenance plans include scheduled reminders, discounted replacement parts, and priority technician visits, ensuring your system operates at peak efficiency year-round.
Are your purification systems certified and compliant with regulations?
Yes. All major components carry NSF/ANSI certifications—Standard 42 for aesthetic chlorine reduction, Standard 53 for health-related contaminant removal, Standard 58 for RO systems, and Standard 55 Class A or B for UV disinfection. Installation meets Kentucky Plumbing Code requirements, and our licensed plumbers pull any necessary local permits for Pikeville city inspections.
What is the total cost of ownership, and do you offer financing?
While prices depend on system size and water conditions, a typical whole-house carbon unit installed averages $1,200–$1,800, and a multi-stage RO system ranges from $550–$900. Annual maintenance runs $80–$150. We partner with local lenders to provide 6-, 12-, or 24-month low-interest financing and accept major credit cards.
