FAQs
What types of water-purification systems do you install for Deer Lodge homes and businesses?
We design and install a full range of point-of-entry and point-of-use systems, including whole-house carbon filtration, reverse-osmosis (RO) units, water softeners, UV disinfection lamps, and specialty media filters for iron, manganese, sulfur, and arsenic. Each system is selected or custom-configured after we test your source water and review your usage needs, plumbing layout, and budget.
How can I tell which purification technology is right for my specific water quality issues in Deer Lodge?
Start with a comprehensive water analysis, which we provide free for Deer Lodge residents and small businesses. We test for hardness, pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), iron, manganese, sulfides, nitrates, arsenic, bacteria, and other common local contaminants. Based on the lab report and your goals—better taste, scale reduction, health protection, or all three—we recommend a tailored solution. For example, high TDS plus arsenic may call for a whole-house RO system paired with a selective media tank, while sulfur odors alone can often be solved with an air-injection oxidation filter.
Do your systems eliminate hard-water scale and improve taste as well as safety?
Yes. A properly sized softener removes calcium and magnesium ions that cause scale, protecting pipes, water heaters, and appliances. Activated-carbon stages strip chlorine, chloramines, and organic compounds that create unpleasant taste or odor. RO membranes go further, rejecting up to 99% of dissolved salts, metals, and micro-pollutants. UV units or bacterial filters add a disinfection barrier for private wells. Together, these components deliver clear, great-tasting, and safe water at every tap.
How often will I need to replace filters, membranes, or other consumables?
Service intervals vary with water quality and system load, but typical guidelines are: • Sediment and carbon pre-filters: every 6–12 months. • RO membranes: every 2–4 years. • Softener or iron filter media: 7–10 years. • UV lamp: annually (sleeve cleaning each change). We include a maintenance schedule in your installation packet and offer reminder emails and affordable service plans so you never miss a change-out.
Is professional installation required, and what does the process involve?
Most systems integrate with your main water line and drain, so professional installation is strongly recommended to ensure code compliance, optimal flow rate, and manufacturer warranty coverage. Our licensed plumbers handle: 1. Water shut-off and line cutting. 2. Mounting and plumbing of tanks, housings, and bypass valves. 3. Electrical hookup for softener controls or UV units. 4. Programming regeneration cycles or TDS monitors. 5. Post-install testing to confirm contaminant reduction. A typical whole-house setup takes 4–6 hours with no more than 30 minutes of water downtime.
What does a complete Deer Lodge water-purification system cost, and are rebates or financing available?
Installed pricing ranges from about $900 for a single under-sink RO unit to $4,000–$6,500 for a multi-stage whole-house package with softening, RO, and UV. Deer Lodge Utility customers can apply for our 12-month, no-interest financing, and Montana’s Energy Efficient Appliance Rebate may cover up to $200 of a high-efficiency softener. We also handle the paperwork for any available state well-water safety grants.
