FAQs
What types of water-purification systems do you install for Walland homes and businesses?
We specialize in point-of-use drinking-water stations, whole-house carbon and sediment filtration, salt-free softening systems, and high-capacity reverse-osmosis (RO) units. After a free on-site water analysis, we recommend a single technology or a hybrid system that targets the specific minerals, bacteria, or chemicals present in Wallandâs municipal or well-water supply.
How does a whole-house reverse-osmosis system differ from a point-of-use filter?
A point-of-use filter (typically installed under the kitchen sink) treats only the water used for cooking and drinking, whereas a whole-house RO system purifies every tap inside the propertyâincluding showers, laundry lines, and outdoor bibs. Whole-house RO removes dissolved solids, chlorine, pesticides, PFAS, and many emerging contaminants, providing bottled-water quality throughout the building. Point-of-use filters cost less up front, but whole-house RO offers complete protection for sensitive skin, appliances, and plumbing fixtures.
Can your purification solutions address Wallandâs common issues such as hard water, sulfur odor, or iron staining in well systems?
Yes. For hardness and scale buildup we install salt-free, template-assisted crystallization (TAC) units or traditional ion-exchange softeners. Hydrogen-sulfide (rotten-egg) odors are eliminated with catalytic carbon and aeration stages, while iron and manganese are captured by specialized greensand or Katalox media before they can discolor fixtures. We often combine these pre-filters with RO or ultraviolet sterilization for a layered defense that meets or exceeds EPA drinking-water standards.
What routine maintenance is required, and how long do filters or RO membranes last?
Most sediment and carbon cartridges need replacement every 6â12 months, depending on water usage and contaminant load. Salt-free conditioners typically require media replacement every 3â5 years, and RO membranes last 2â5 years when pre-filters are changed on schedule. Our smart controller sends text or email alerts when service is due, and we offer affordable annual plans that include professional inspections, sanitizer flushes, and performance testing.
Will installing an advanced purification system affect water pressure or energy consumption?
Properly sized equipment maintains normal household pressureâ50â80 psi for municipal connections and 40â60 psi for private wells. We use low-energy, high-recovery RO pumps that draw less than 50 watts, adding only a few dollars to your monthly electric bill. Pressure-boosting tanks and variable-speed well pumps are available if your existing pressure is below optimal levels.
Do you provide warranties, financing, or local rebates for Walland residents?
All systems come with a 10-year manufacturerâs warranty on tanks and housings, three years on electronics, and up to five years on RO membranes when maintained under our service plan. We partner with GreenSky and Synchrony to offer 0% interest financing for 12 months or low-payment plans up to 60 months. While state or federal rebates for purification equipment are rare, Blount County occasionally offers well-water improvement grantsâour team will help you fill out the paperwork and supply water-quality test results to support your application.
