FAQs
Why is water purification especially important for homes in Delano?
Delano’s municipal and well water often contain high mineral content (hardness), agricultural run-off such as nitrates, and traces of chlorine added for disinfection. While the water meets basic safety standards, these constituents can stain fixtures, shorten appliance life, and affect taste and odor. A tailored purification system removes targeted contaminants, giving you cleaner-tasting water, protecting plumbing, and providing an extra layer of health assurance for your family.
What kinds of water purification systems do you install, and how do I know which one is right for me?
We design three primary solution groups: (1) whole-house carbon and catalytic filters for chlorine, chloramine, taste, and odor; (2) water softeners or salt-free conditioners to tackle hard water minerals; and (3) reverse-osmosis (RO) units for drinking water that remove up to 99% of dissolved solids, nitrates, and heavy metals. During a free on-site water test, we measure hardness, TDS, pH, and specific contaminants, then recommend a single unit or a hybrid system engineered around your family’s water usage, space, and budget.
How long does installation take and will my water be shut off?
Most residential installations are completed in four to six hours. We shut the main water valve only while we tie into the plumbing—usually 30–60 minutes—so you’ll have water again before lunchtime in most cases. Our technicians protect floors, clean the work area, and test every fixture before leaving to ensure minimal disruption to your routine.
What does a tailored water purification system cost, and are financing options available?
Pricing depends on capacity and technology. A point-of-use RO system starts around $450 installed, while a whole-house softener/catalytic filter combination typically ranges from $1,800 to $3,500. Larger homes or specialized media (e.g., arsenic or fluoride removal) may cost more. We provide upfront, itemized quotes and offer 0% same-as-cash financing for up to 12 months, plus long-term plans through our lending partners.
What maintenance is required after installation?
Routine care is straightforward: RO units need a new set of pre- and post-filters every 6–12 months and a membrane about every 3–5 years. Softeners require salt refills or media regeneration checks, and whole-house carbon systems need a media replacement roughly every 5 years. We offer an optional annual service plan that includes filter changes, water retesting, and a 10-point equipment inspection at a discounted rate.
How is a professionally installed purification system better than a faucet or pitcher filter?
Pitcher and faucet filters improve taste but have limited capacity and only address a narrow range of contaminants. A professionally engineered system treats all the water entering your home or a dedicated drinking tap, providing consistent removal of hardness minerals, chemicals, and dissolved solids at higher flow rates. It protects plumbing, saves on bottled water, and is backed by warranties (up to 10 years on tanks and valves) and local support from our Delano-based technicians.
