FAQs
What types of water purification systems do you offer in Louisville?
We offer a wide range of water purification systems including reverse osmosis systems, whole house water filtration systems, under-sink filters, and UV water purifiers. Each system is designed to address specific water quality issues commonly found in Louisville, such as hard water, chlorine, and various contaminants.
How do I know which water purification system is right for my home?
Choosing the right system involves a few steps. First, we recommend conducting a water test to identify the specific contaminants present in your water. Once we have the results, we can recommend a system based on the type and level of impurities, your water usage, and your specific needs including any budget considerations.
Can I install the water purification system myself?
While some systems, like water pitcher filters, are easy to install on your own, more complex systems such as whole house filters or reverse osmosis units often require professional installation. Professional installation ensures that the system is set up correctly and operates efficiently, preventing potential issues down the line.
How often do I need to maintain my water purification system?
Maintenance frequency depends on the type of system you have. Generally, filters should be replaced every 6 to 12 months, but this can vary. Reverse osmosis systems might need filter replacements every 6 to 12 months and membrane replacements every 2 to 3 years. It’s important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for optimal performance.
Will a water purification system remove all contaminants from my water?
While water purification systems are highly effective at removing a wide range of contaminants, no system can remove 100% of all impurities. However, systems like reverse osmosis and activated carbon filters can significantly reduce contaminants such as chlorine, lead, arsenic, and many more, making your water much safer and tastier to drink.
Is it necessary to have a water softener if I already have a water purification system?
A water purification system and a water softener serve different purposes. A water purifier removes contaminants to make the water safe to drink and use, whereas a water softener specifically addresses hard water issues by removing calcium and magnesium ions. If you have hard water in your area, it's beneficial to have both systems for the best water quality.
