FAQs
Why is water purification important for homes in Huntsville, AL?
Huntsville’s municipal supply meets federal safety standards, but it can still contain trace amounts of chlorine, sediment, hard-water minerals, and potential contaminants picked up in distribution lines. A professionally installed purification or filtration system removes these impurities, improving taste, protecting plumbing fixtures, extending the life of water-using appliances, and providing greater peace of mind for your family’s health.
What types of water treatment systems do you install?
We design and install whole-home carbon filtration units, reverse osmosis (RO) drinking-water systems, water softeners, combination softener/filtration systems, and UV germicidal lights. After an on-site water analysis, our licensed plumbers recommend the right technology—or a custom blend of technologies—to target your specific water quality concerns in the Huntsville area.
How do I know which water purification system is right for my household?
Start with a professional water test. We check pH, hardness, dissolved solids, chlorine/chloramine levels, and screen for heavy metals or bacteria. Using these results, we evaluate consumption patterns, number of occupants, and plumbing layout to propose solutions that balance performance, maintenance requirements, and budget. Every home’s water chemistry is unique, so a tailored approach ensures optimal results.
Will a whole-home water softener eliminate hard-water scale?
Yes. Our high-efficiency ion-exchange softeners remove calcium and magnesium ions that form scale, replacing them with sodium or potassium ions. This prevents mineral buildup inside pipes, water heaters, and fixtures, reducing energy costs and extending equipment life. Soft water also lathers better with soap, leaving skin and laundry feeling cleaner and softer.
What maintenance does a water purification system require?
Maintenance varies by system. Carbon filters typically need media replacement every 6–12 months. Reverse osmosis units require sediment and carbon pre-filters changed annually and the RO membrane every 2–3 years. Water softeners need periodic salt refills and resin bed cleaning about once a year. We offer affordable maintenance plans, reminders, and professional servicing to keep your system performing at peak efficiency.
Is professional installation really necessary, or can I install a system myself?
While some countertop filters are DIY-friendly, whole-home filtration and softening systems tie into the main water line and require correct sizing, bypass valve configuration, and pressure testing to meet local plumbing codes. Improper installation can cause leaks, pressure loss, or ineffective filtration. Our licensed Huntsville plumbers ensure code compliance, optimal flow rates, manufacturer warranty protection, and a clean, worry-free installation.
