FAQs

Why is water purification important in Palmer, AK?

Palmer’s municipal and well water sources can contain naturally occurring minerals, iron, low-level sediment, and seasonal microbiological contaminants that affect taste, odor, and safety. A properly sized purification system removes these impurities, protects your plumbing fixtures from scaling or staining, and ensures every tap in your home or business delivers clear, great-tasting water year-round.

What types of purification systems do you install and service?

We offer point-of-entry and point-of-use solutions, including whole-house carbon filtration, reverse-osmosis (RO) units, water softeners, iron and manganese filters, ultraviolet (UV) disinfection, and combination systems that target multiple issues at once. Our licensed plumbers handle system selection, professional installation, and any required tie-ins to existing plumbing or pressure tanks.

How do I know which system is right for my home or business?

We begin with a complimentary on-site water analysis that checks hardness, pH, iron, manganese, TDS, and bacterial presence. Using those results, we explain the pros, cons, and life-cycle costs of each technology, then size the equipment to your peak water demand and available space. This data-driven approach ensures you get the most effective and energy-efficient solution, not a one-size-fits-all unit.

Will a purification system remove hard minerals and improve taste?

Yes. A water softener exchanges hardness minerals (calcium and magnesium) for sodium or potassium ions, eliminating scale buildup in pipes and appliances. When paired with activated carbon, it also removes chlorine byproducts that cause chemical taste and odor. For the highest level of clarity and flavor, many Palmer homeowners add an RO drinking station that filters out up to 99% of dissolved solids, including lead and nitrates.

How much maintenance do these systems require?

Most systems need only simple, scheduled upkeep: softeners require salt top-ups every 4–8 weeks; carbon media is typically replaced every 3–5 years; RO membranes last 2–3 years with annual pre-filter changes; and UV lamps are swapped once a year. Our service plans include reminders, filter deliveries, and full-service appointments so you never have to track maintenance intervals yourself.

Are your purification systems certified and safe for drinking water?

Absolutely. The equipment we supply is NSF/ANSI certified for the specific contaminants it targets, meets Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation guidelines, and is installed by state-licensed plumbers who follow all local codes. Each installation includes post-startup water testing and a written performance guarantee, giving you documented proof that your water is safe and pure.
