FAQs
Why is environmentally friendly water purification important for Benton households?
Benton sits near sensitive wetlands and relies on groundwater aquifers that can be easily impacted by chemical runoff and excessive water usage. Eco-conscious purification systems reduce the need for single-use plastic bottles, avoid harsh chemical discharge, and conserve energy, helping protect local water tables and wildlife habitats while still delivering clean, safe drinking water for your family.
What kinds of green water purification systems do you install?
We specialize in high-efficiency reverse-osmosis (RO) units with low-waste membranes, catalytic-carbon filtration made from renewable coconut shells, and UV-light sterilization that eliminates bacteria without chemicals. All models we carry are certified by NSF/ANSI for performance and are chosen for minimal environmental impact throughout their life cycle.
How much water is wasted by a typical reverse-osmosis system, and how do you minimize it?
Standard RO units can waste 3–4 gallons for every gallon produced. Our upgraded Benton-specific RO packages use pressure-boost pumps and permeate-pump technology to cut waste down to roughly 1:1. We can also plumb the reject stream to a gray-water holding tank so it can be reused for toilet flushing or garden irrigation, dramatically improving overall efficiency.
Will an eco-friendly filtration setup remove common contaminants found in Benton’s water supply?
Yes. City and well tests in Benton most frequently show elevated hardness, trace pesticides from agricultural runoff, and occasional bacterial spikes after heavy rains. Our multi-stage systems pair sediment and carbon filters to trap particulates and chemicals, RO membranes for dissolved solids, and UV sterilizers for microbes. The end result meets or exceeds EPA drinking-water standards.
How often do filters need to be replaced, and can the cartridges be recycled?
Pre-filters typically last 6–12 months, RO membranes 2–3 years, and UV lamps 12 months, depending on usage and local water quality. We partner with a regional recycling facility that accepts spent carbon cartridges and polypropylene housings. During scheduled maintenance, our technicians collect used components and ensure they are properly recycled instead of ending up in Benton’s landfill.
What incentives or rebates are available for installing sustainable water purification systems in Benton?
Benton Utilities currently offers a $75 rebate for households that install WaterSense-certified fixtures in conjunction with a low-waste RO system. Additionally, the Arkansas Energy Office provides up to a $150 tax credit for energy-efficient appliances, which includes eligible UV sterilizers and pressure-boost pumps. We handle all paperwork so you can claim these savings with minimal hassle.
