FAQs
Why is an advanced water-purification system important for homes and businesses in Bean Station?
Bean Station’s municipal and well-water sources can carry dissolved minerals, agricultural runoff, and trace pharmaceuticals that standard sediment filters don’t remove. Advanced purification protects your family or customers from contaminants such as lead, chlorine by-products, micro-plastics, and excessive hardness, while also preventing scale buildup that shortens the life of water heaters, ice makers, and other plumbing fixtures.
What purification technologies do you install, and how do they work together?
Our flagship systems combine multi-stage carbon block pre-filtration, high-efficiency reverse osmosis (RO), catalytic carbon polishing, ultraviolet (UV-C) disinfection, and optional remineralization. The carbon block removes chlorine, pesticides, and VOCs; RO’s semi-permeable membrane rejects up to 99% of dissolved solids; UV-C neutralizes bacteria, viruses, and cysts; and the remineralizer balances pH for a crisp, non-acidic taste—all managed by a smart controller that tracks flow rates and filter life.
How is this different from a store-bought pitcher filter or single under-sink unit?
Pitcher and basic faucet filters improve taste but only treat a few gallons a day and cannot remove dissolved metals, nitrates, or microbial threats. Our whole-building systems purify every tap at up to 15 gpm, maintain constant pressure, automatically flush membranes for longer life, and send maintenance alerts to your phone. They also protect appliances, ice machines, and humidifiers—benefits a single tap solution can’t offer.
What upkeep is required and what kind of support do you provide?
Pre-filters generally last 6–12 months, RO membranes 3–5 years, and UV lamps 12 months depending on usage and water quality. Each unit’s smart module tracks gallon throughput and time, flashing a local LED and sending app notifications when service is due. We offer affordable maintenance plans that include annual testing, filter replacement, membrane sanitation, and system firmware updates, so you never have to guess about water quality.
Will installation disrupt my water service or existing plumbing?
Most residential installations take 4–6 hours. Our licensed, bonded technicians isolate the main line, add a bypass valve, mount the purification modules on a single wall plate, and pressure-test before reconnecting. Water is typically off for less than 60 minutes, and we leave your utility room or crawlspace cleaner than we found it. For businesses, we schedule after-hours or weekend installs to minimize downtime.
Are your purification systems certified and environmentally friendly?
Yes. All components carry NSF/ANSI 42, 53, 58, and 55 Class-A certifications, ensuring verified reduction of aesthetic, health, and microbial contaminants. The smart RO membrane operates at 1:1 waste-to-product ratio—up to 75% less waste than conventional RO systems—and recycled filter housings keep plastic out of landfills. Lower scale formation also means water-heating appliances run more efficiently, reducing energy bills and your carbon footprint.
