FAQs
Why is water purification important for Lynchburg homes?
Although Lynchburg’s municipal supply meets federal drinking-water standards, many homeowners notice issues such as chlorine taste, mineral buildup, and occasional discoloration caused by aging water mains or private wells. A professionally installed purification system removes chlorine, lead, sediment, agricultural runoff, and hard-water minerals, giving your household cleaner-tasting water, protecting plumbing fixtures from scale, and reducing reliance on bottled water.
What types of water purification systems do you install?
We install a full range of point-of-entry and point-of-use systems, including whole-house carbon filtration, water softeners, reverse-osmosis (RO) units, UV disinfection lights, and iron/sulfur filters for well water. During your in-home consultation we test your water chemistry and recommend the combination that best targets Lynchburg’s common contaminants while fitting your budget and space.
How can I tell if I need a water purification system in Lynchburg?
Warning signs include a chlorine or musty odor, white scale on faucets, rusty stains in sinks, cloudy or metallic-tasting water, and recurring appliance failures due to mineral buildup. If you rely on a private well, annual testing is strongly advised because well water can pick up bacteria, nitrates, or heavy metals. Our technicians provide complimentary on-site testing and explain the results so you know exactly what you’re drinking.
What is the installation process and how long does it take?
Most residential systems are installed in a single visit that takes 2–4 hours. We shut off the main water supply, mount the filtration or softening unit near your water heater or well pressure tank, make the plumbing connections with soldered or crimped fittings, sanitize the new equipment, and test for leaks and proper flow. When finished, we walk you through operating instructions and leave a maintenance schedule so you can keep your warranty valid.
How often do water purification systems need maintenance or filter changes?
Regular maintenance is simple but essential for peak performance. Carbon or sediment cartridges usually last 6–12 months, reverse-osmosis membranes 2–3 years, and water softener resin may last a decade with proper salt levels. UV lamps require annual bulb replacement and quartz sleeve cleaning. We offer affordable maintenance plans that include scheduled filter changes, system disinfection, and performance checks to ensure your family’s water stays pure.
Do you offer water testing and what does it include?
Yes. We provide free basic on-site tests for hardness, total dissolved solids, iron, pH, and chlorine. For more comprehensive analysis, we can send samples to a state-certified laboratory to screen for bacteria, lead, nitrates, arsenic, and over 100 other contaminants. Lab results are typically ready in 3–5 business days, and we explain each finding and outline treatment options, all with no obligation to purchase a system.
