FAQs
What types of advanced water-purification technologies do you install in Jellico homes and businesses?
We specialize in multi-stage reverse osmosis (RO) systems, whole-house activated carbon filtration, ultraviolet (UV-C) disinfection units, remineralization cartridges to balance pH, and smart monitoring valves that track water quality in real time. Each solution can be installed as a point-of-use (under-sink) or point-of-entry (whole-building) system, depending on your water quality report and consumption needs.
How effective are your systems at removing contaminants found in Jellico’s municipal and well water?
Our RO membranes reject up to 99% of dissolved solids, heavy metals (lead, arsenic, chromium), and PFAS compounds. Activated carbon stages adsorb chlorine, pesticides, and volatile organic compounds, while UV-C lamps inactivate 99.99% of bacteria, viruses, and cysts such as Giardia. Post-filter polishing ensures taste and odor improvements. We perform before-and-after lab testing so you can see the documented reduction levels specific to your property.
Will the purified water still contain essential minerals, or will it taste "flat"?
RO processes remove nearly all dissolved minerals, which can make water taste neutral. To counter this, we offer optional remineralization cartridges that reintroduce calcium, magnesium, and trace potassium—improving flavor and supporting healthy electrolyte balance. You can choose mineral levels to match bottled spring water profiles, ensuring your water is both pure and palatable.
What maintenance is required and how often?
Typical maintenance involves replacing pre-sediment and carbon filters every 6–12 months, RO membranes every 24–36 months, and UV lamps annually (8,000–9,000 operating hours). Smart sensors in our systems alert you via a mobile app when pressure drops or flow rates indicate filter saturation. We offer affordable service plans that include scheduled visits, filter changes, lamp disposal, and a yearly water-quality checkup—all bundled to minimize downtime and unexpected costs.
How long does installation take and will it disrupt my plumbing?
A point-of-use under-sink RO or UV system usually takes 2–3 hours to install. Whole-house setups can take 4–6 hours, including bypass valve integration and line sanitization. Our licensed technicians coordinate with you to shut off water briefly—usually less than 30 minutes—so disruption is minimal. We also perform a full pressure test and sanitize all new lines before returning service.
What are the long-term cost and environmental benefits?
Eliminating bottled water can save a family of four around $600–$1,000 per year and prevent roughly 1,500 plastic bottles from entering landfills. Our energy-efficient RO pumps consume less than 1 kWh per 100 gallons produced, and waste-water ratios have improved to 1:1 with permeate-flush technology. Long-life filters and recyclable cartridges further cut environmental impact, while boosting property value through a documented, high-quality water supply.
