FAQs
What kinds of water-purification systems does Reliance Plumbing install?
We design and install a full range of point-of-use and whole-house systems, including activated-carbon filters, reverse-osmosis (RO) units, UV disinfection lamps, water softeners, and combination systems that integrate several technologies in one compact cabinet. Our technicians evaluate your incoming water quality and usage needs to recommend the best technology or mix of technologies for iron, sediment, chlorine, microbial, or hardness issues.
How can I tell which purification system is right for my home or business in Reliance?
Start with a certified water test—our team can collect a sample on site or you can bring one to our showroom. The lab report pinpoints contaminants, hardness, pH, and total dissolved solids. Using those results, we calculate daily demand based on fixture count and occupancy. We then match you with a system that satisfies both water-quality goals and flow-rate requirements, ensuring you never experience pressure loss during peak usage.
Will a purification system eliminate hard-water scaling as well as taste and odor problems?
Yes, when configured correctly. A conventional RO or carbon filter targets chlorine, taste, and odor but does not remove calcium and magnesium that cause scaling. To solve both problems, we typically pair an RO or carbon unit with a salt-based or salt-free softener. The softener handles hardness; the RO or carbon stage polishes taste, odor, and dissolved chemicals, giving you crystal-clear, scale-free water at every tap.
What kind of maintenance will my system require after installation?
Maintenance varies by technology: carbon cartridges should be replaced every 6–12 months; RO pre-filters annually and membranes every 3–5 years; UV lamps every 12 months; and softener brine tanks checked monthly for salt levels. We offer an optional service plan that includes scheduled filter and lamp changes, media rebedding, sanitization, performance checks, and emergency call-outs, keeping your warranty valid and water quality consistent.
Do I really need professional installation, or can I install a unit myself?
Many countertop filters are true DIY products, but whole-house or under-sink RO, UV, and softening systems involve cutting main supply lines, adding bypass valves, pressure regulators, drain connections, and electrical bonding. Incorrect installation can lead to leaks, code violations, or voided warranties. Our licensed plumbers ensure the system is sized, pressurized, and vented correctly, meets local plumbing codes, and is commissioned with a post-install water test.
What warranty and after-sales support does Reliance Plumbing provide?
Most manufacturers offer 1–5-year warranties on tanks, valves, and electronic controls, while RO membranes and UV chambers may carry prorated coverage up to 10 years. Reliance Plumbing adds a one-year labor warranty on every installation, so any workmanship-related repairs are handled at no cost during that period. Our customer portal lets you track filter-change schedules, request service visits, and download test reports, ensuring long-term peace of mind.
