FAQs
Why should Whitwell homeowners consider a whole-home water filtration system?
Many Whitwell residents draw water from private wells or receive municipal water that can still contain hardness minerals, sediment, iron, sulfur, chlorine, and trace contaminants. A point-of-entry (POE) filtration system treats every drop as it enters your plumbing, giving you cleaner water at every tap, protecting appliances from scale, and eliminating the need for individual faucet filters or bottled water.
What contaminants will your Whitwell whole-home filtration system remove?
Our multi-stage systems are designed after a free on-site water test. Typical stages include a sediment pre-filter (dirt, sand, rust), catalytic carbon (chlorine, chloramine, pesticides, VOCs), KDF media (heavy metals such as lead), and optional softening or iron/sulfur reduction resin. UV disinfection can be added for bacteria/virus control—ideal for Whitwell well owners. The result is clearer, better-tasting, and safer water throughout the house.
How is the system installed and will my water be shut off for long?
Installation is usually completed in half a day by our licensed Whitwell plumbers. We cut into the main water line where it enters your home—often in a basement, crawl space, or utility room—and plumb the filter in line. Water is off for roughly 1–2 hours while we mount the tanks, connect bypass valves, and flush the media. After final testing, your water service resumes with minimal disruption.
What maintenance is required and how often do filters need changing?
Most homeowners only need to replace the sediment cartridge every 6–12 months. Carbon/KDF media typically lasts 3–5 years and softening resin up to 10 years, depending on Whitwell water quality and usage. We offer affordable maintenance plans that include annual testing, filter changes, and system sanitizing so you never have to remember a schedule.
Will a whole-home filter lower my water pressure or harm my plumbing?
When properly sized, pressure loss is negligible—usually less than 3–5 psi. We match system flow rate (gallons per minute) to your household’s peak demand, install bypass valves, and use full-port fittings. Because the filter removes sediment and hardness, it actually extends the life of water heaters, faucets, dishwashers, and washing machines by preventing scale and buildup inside pipes.
How much does a system cost and are financing options available?
A typical Whitwell whole-home filtration setup ranges from $1,200 for a basic carbon unit to $3,500+ for a deluxe system with softening and UV. Every installation includes a complimentary water analysis, equipment, labor, and a limited warranty. We partner with local lenders to offer 0% or low-interest financing, allowing you to enjoy purified water for as little as $30–$50 per month.
