FAQs
Why is water purification important for Caryville homes?
Although Caryville’s municipal water meets federal safety standards, our well-sourced supply is naturally high in hardness minerals and can carry trace amounts of iron, sulfur, and agricultural runoff. These contaminants may stain fixtures, shorten appliance life, and affect taste or odor. A properly sized purification system removes or neutralizes these impurities, giving you better-tasting water, protecting plumbing, and reducing reliance on bottled water.
What water purification options do you offer and which one is best for my home?
We design systems around your specific water report and household goals. Common solutions include: • Reverse Osmosis (RO) units for drinking taps—removes up to 99% of dissolved solids. • Whole-house activated carbon filters—reduces chlorine, pesticides, and organic odors. • Water softeners—exchange hardness minerals with sodium or potassium to eliminate scale. • UV disinfection—destroys bacteria and viruses without chemicals. During a free on-site consultation we test your water, review usage patterns, and explain the pros, cons, and cost of each option so you can choose a tailored combination rather than a one-size-fits-all package.
How long does installation take and will my water be shut off?
Most single-tap RO or under-sink systems take 2–3 hours. Whole-house softeners or carbon filters usually require half a day, and a multi-stage purification/softening combo can run 6–8 hours. We shut off the main supply only during the tie-in—typically 15–30 minutes—so household disruption is minimal. Before leaving, we flush all lines, test system performance, and show you how everything works.
How much maintenance do water purification systems require?
Maintenance depends on the technology: • RO: Replace pre/post filters every 6–12 months and the membrane every 2–3 years. • Carbon filter tanks: Media lasts 3–5 years; backwashing units automatically clean themselves. • Water softeners: Add 1–2 bags of salt or potassium pellets per month and schedule a resin check every 5 years. • UV lamps: Change annually. We offer affordable service plans that include reminder texts, discounted filters, performance checks, and annual water re-testing to ensure your system stays optimized.
How can I tell if I need a water purification system?
Common signs include white scale on faucets, rusty or yellow discoloration, sulfur (“rotten-egg”) smell, cloudy ice, dry skin after showers, and spots on dishes. If you rely on a private well, periodic tests may show elevated bacteria, nitrates, or metals. Even if none of these symptoms appear, families who want bottle-quality drinking water or are concerned about emerging contaminants such as PFAS often choose purification for peace of mind.
