FAQs
Why should Sharps Chapel homeowners consider a whole-home water purification system?
Even though many properties in Sharps Chapel rely on well water or the Luttrell municipal supply, laboratory tests frequently detect hardness minerals, iron, sulfur, and trace agricultural run-off. These contaminants can stain fixtures, shorten appliance life, and give water an unpleasant taste or odor. A professionally installed purification system treats every drop before it reaches your taps, delivering great-tasting water, protecting plumbing, and eliminating the need for bottled water.
What specific contaminants are common in Sharps Chapel water?
Local water analyses often reveal\n• Hardness (calcium and magnesium) at 8–14 gpg, which causes scale buildup.\n• Dissolved iron and manganese that leave red or black stains.\n• Hydrogen sulfide gas (“rotten-egg” odor) in some wells.\n• Low-level pesticides/herbicides from nearby agricultural activity.\n• Sediment and turbidity after heavy rains.\nOur systems are custom-configured with sediment pre-filters, catalytic carbon, KDF media, and optional UV disinfection so each of these issues is addressed in a single, low-maintenance unit.
How does your great-tasting water plumbing system operate?
The heart of the system is a multi-stage purification tank installed where the main water line enters your home.\n1. A 5-micron pleated pre-filter traps sand, silt, and rust.\n2. A catalytic carbon/KDF blend removes chlorine, pesticides, and improves taste and odor.\n3. An ion-exchange softening chamber exchanges hardness minerals for sodium or potassium ions, preventing scale.\n4. (Optional) A UV sterilizer inactivates 99.99 % of bacteria and viruses.\nTreated water then flows to every faucet, shower, and appliance, ensuring consistent quality throughout the house.
Will installation reduce my water pressure or require major plumbing changes?
No. The purification tank is sized to match your home’s peak flow rate, typically 10–15 gpm, and uses 1-inch or larger inlet/outlet ports to minimize pressure drop (less than 3 psi). Our certified plumbers install a simple bypass manifold, so your existing plumbing remains largely untouched and you can still access raw water for outdoor spigots if desired.
What maintenance is involved and how long do the filters last?
Maintenance is straightforward:\n• Pre-filter cartridge: replace every 6–12 months or when pressure gauge shows a 10 psi drop.\n• Softener/conditioning media: regenerate automatically with metered control valve and needs salt refill every 4–6 weeks (potassium optional).\n• Catalytic carbon: change every 5–7 years depending on usage and water chemistry.\n• UV lamp (if installed): replace annually.\nWe offer affordable service plans that include annual water testing, media replacement, and a 10-year warranty on the mineral tank and control head.
How much does a complete system cost and are financing options available?
A turnkey whole-house purification package for an average three-bath Sharps Chapel home ranges from $2,300 to $3,800 installed. Pricing varies with flow rate, optional UV, and the need for iron/sulfur specialty media. We partner with GreenSky to provide 0 % interest financing for 12 months or low-payment plans up to 60 months. Because our systems reduce bottled-water purchases and lower appliance repair bills, most families recoup their investment within 3–4 years.
