FAQs
Why should I install an advanced whole-home water filtration system instead of relying on a simple faucet or pitcher filter?
Whole-home (point-of-entry) systems treat every drop of water as it enters your property, so contaminants such as chlorine, heavy metals, pesticides, micro-plastics, hardness minerals and unpleasant odours are removed before they reach any tap or appliance. This protects your family’s drinking water, extends the life of plumbing fixtures and water-using appliances, and prevents scale build-up in boilers, showers and washing machines. Faucet or pitcher filters only treat small volumes of cold water at a single point and do nothing for bathing, laundry or appliance protection.
What contaminants does your advanced filtration and purification package remove?
Our multi-stage systems typically include a sediment pre-filter (down to 5 microns), catalytic carbon or KDF media for chlorine/chloramine, pesticides and VOC removal, an ion-exchange or TAC/seed-crystal cartridge for hardness (limescale) reduction, and an optional ultrafiltration (0.02 µm) or reverse-osmosis membrane for lead, arsenic, fluoride, nitrates, PFAS and micro-plastics. We tailor the configuration to your Guild water-quality report, so only the modules your supply requires are installed.
How is the correct system size and specification determined for my property?
During a free on-site survey we collect a raw-water sample for laboratory analysis and measure peak flow rates (gallons per minute) based on the number of bathrooms and occupants. The chemistry results tell us which contaminants need addressing and at what levels, while the flow-rate calculation ensures the selected filter housings and media beds can keep up with household demand without pressure loss. We then provide a written proposal showing the recommended cartridge types, media volumes, regeneration frequency (if applicable) and expected filter-change intervals.
What maintenance is required and how often do filters need replacing?
Maintenance is straightforward and can be handled by the homeowner or added to our annual service plan. Sediment cartridges are usually swapped every 6–12 months, carbon/KDF media every 12–24 months, and scale-reduction or specialty cartridges every 18–24 months, depending on incoming water quality and usage. Systems with UV or reverse-osmosis stages also require an annual UV lamp change and RO membrane replacement every 2–3 years. A digital service log on the control head alerts you when each stage is nearing the end of its useful life.
Will installing a filtration system reduce my water pressure or require major plumbing changes?
Correctly sized equipment maintains normal pressure—most of our units are rated for 15–25 gpm, well above typical residential peak demand. We install the system on the main cold-water line near where it enters the building, usually in a utility room, basement or garage. Installation involves cutting the main line, adding isolation and bypass valves, mounting filter housings on a wall bracket, and connecting to a nearby 230 V socket if the system uses electronic monitoring or UV. Work is completed within one day and does not require significant structural alterations.
How much does a professional whole-home filtration system cost and what financing options are available in Guild?
A standard three-stage carbon + scale + UV package for a three-bed house starts at around £1,350 supplied and installed, while systems incorporating reverse-osmosis or advanced PFAS reduction can range from £1,900 to £2,800 depending on flow rate and media capacity. Operating costs (replacement cartridges and energy for UV) average £80–£120 per year. We offer 0% interest payment plans over 6 and 12 months for qualifying Guild customers, as well as extended 5-year parts and labour warranties when you enrol in our annual service programme.
