FAQs
Why is water purification important for homes and businesses in Lookout Mountain?
Although municipal water in the Lookout Mountain area meets state and federal safety standards, it can still contain hardness minerals, trace chlorine, sediment, and naturally occurring metals from the mountain’s limestone bedrock. Many properties on the ridge also rely on private wells that are vulnerable to iron staining, sulfur odors, and bacterial contamination after heavy rains. A properly sized purification system removes these nuisances, protects plumbing fixtures, improves taste, and provides an extra layer of health protection for families, restaurants, and vacation rentals.
What kinds of purification systems does Pure Water Plumbing install?
We carry and service a full line of NSF-certified equipment, including whole-house carbon back-washing filters, salt-free and traditional water softeners, reverse-osmosis (RO) drinking-water stations, UV disinfection lamps, iron/sulfur removal units, and combination systems tailored for well water. Our technicians test your water on-site, explain the results, and then recommend the most efficient solution rather than a one-size-fits-all package.
How does the installation process work and how long will it take?
1. On-site evaluation: We perform a complimentary water analysis and inspect the plumbing layout. 2. System design: Within 24 hours you receive a proposal, performance guarantee, and all-inclusive price. 3. Scheduling: Most installations are booked within a week, with Saturday options for mountain residents. 4. Installation day: A typical whole-house system takes 4–6 hours; an RO sink unit about 90 minutes. We obtain any required Lookout Mountain utility permits, protect flooring, disinfect lines, and haul away packaging. 5. Walk-through: The technician shows you how to read the controller, change filters, and register the warranty.
What maintenance is required after the system is installed?
Maintenance depends on the equipment and water usage, but the most common items are: • Sediment pre-filters – change every 6–12 months. • Carbon media – replace or rebed every 5–7 years. • RO membranes – 3–5 year lifespan when pre-filters are changed on time. • UV lamp – annual bulb swap and quartz sleeve cleaning. We offer an optional CarePlus plan that includes scheduled filter deliveries, annual performance checks, discounted service calls, and text or email reminders so you never miss an interval.
Is a whole-house system better than a point-of-use filter?
It depends on your goal. A point-of-use RO unit under the kitchen sink is excellent for cooking and drinking water, but showers, laundry, and appliances still receive untreated water that can leave scale and chlorine vapors. A whole-house system treats every tap, prevents scale inside water heaters, and extends appliance life, delivering soft, chlorine-free water to skin and clothes. Many Lookout Mountain customers choose a hybrid approach: a whole-house softener/carbon filter for general use plus an RO faucet for ultra-pure drinking water.
What does a purification system cost and do you offer financing?
Installed prices vary with flow rate and water chemistry, but most homeowners invest between $1,150 for a basic softener up to $4,800 for a twin-tank softener, iron filter, and RO package for well water. Commercial applications are quoted after a site survey. We partner with GreenSky and Synchrony to provide 0% same-as-cash plans for 12 months or low-interest terms up to 84 months. All major credit cards are accepted, and the equipment carries a 10-year tank warranty and 5-year valve warranty for peace of mind.
