FAQs

What types of water purification systems do you install in Ten Mile homes?

We offer a full range of systems, including whole-house carbon filtration, reverse-osmosis (RO) drinking water units, water softeners, UV disinfection, and combination systems that tackle multiple contaminants at once. During a free on-site consultation we test your incoming water and recommend the best technology—or mix of technologies—to remove chlorine, sediment, hard-water minerals, heavy metals, bacteria, and other issues specific to Ten Mile’s municipal and well supplies.

How do I know if I need a whole-house water purification system?

Common warning signs include chlorine taste or odor, cloudy or discolored water, scale buildup on fixtures, dry skin after showering, iron staining, or lab results showing elevated contaminants. Even if your water meets federal standards, localized plumbing conditions in Ten Mile can introduce issues between the treatment plant and your tap. We provide complimentary testing that compares your results to EPA guidelines and clearly explains whether a point-of-use filter or a whole-house solution is advisable.

What is involved in the installation process, and how long will it take?

Most residential installations take 2–5 hours. Our licensed plumbers shut off your water supply, mount the system—usually near the main water line or in a utility room—run bypass piping, and connect power if needed. We pressure-test all joints, sanitize the system, set initial purification parameters, and walk you through operation. Because we’re local to Ten Mile, we carry common fittings on our trucks, minimizing delays.

How often do purification systems need maintenance or filter changes?

Maintenance depends on water quality, household size, and system type. Carbon and sediment pre-filters typically last 6–12 months, RO membranes 2–3 years, and UV lamps 12 months. Softener resin can perform for 10–15 years with proper salt replenishment. We place a service sticker with recommended dates and offer an optional annual maintenance plan that includes filter changes, performance testing, sanitization, and a 10-point plumbing inspection.

Is a purification system cost-effective compared with buying bottled water?

Yes. A family of four that drinks the recommended 2 gallons per day would spend roughly $1,400 per year on mid-priced bottled water. A high-quality RO system, including installation and first-year filters, averages $1,000–$1,300 in Ten Mile, with annual filter costs under $120 thereafter. Whole-house systems also reduce appliance scale, extending the life of water heaters, dishwashers, and washing machines—often saving hundreds of dollars more each year.

Does your company offer water testing and system customization?

Absolutely. We start every project with a comprehensive field test for pH, hardness, iron, chlorine, TDS, and bacteria indicators. For more complex issues we send samples to a state-certified lab. Based on the results and your household’s usage patterns, we size tanks, select filter media, and program valves so you get optimal pressure and minimal waste. All installations comply with Tennessee plumbing codes and come with a parts and labor warranty backed by our Ten Mile service team.
