FAQs
What does a whole-home water purification system actually do?
A whole-home (or point-of-entry) purification system treats every drop of water as it enters your Sequatchie home. Depending on the configuration, it can remove sediment, chlorine/chloramine, hardness minerals (calcium and magnesium), iron, sulfur, pesticides, industrial chemicals, and microbial contaminants. By filtering at the main supply line, the system delivers clean, odor-free water to every faucet, shower, appliance, and outdoor spigot—unlike point-of-use filters that protect only one sink.
Are there specific water problems in Sequatchie that these systems address?
Yes. Well and municipal customers in Sequatchie County commonly report moderate hardness (5–10 grains per gallon), iron staining, sulfur (rotten-egg) odors, and periodic turbidity after heavy rains. Some private wells can also show slightly acidic pH and bacterial contamination. Our whole-home packages are customized after a free on-site water test to target the exact mix of hardness, iron, sulfur, sediment, chlorine/chloramine, and microbes found in your sample.
Will installation require major changes to my existing plumbing?
Usually not. The system is plumbed into the main water line where it enters your home—often in a basement, utility room, or crawl space. We install a bypass manifold so you still have water during filter service, and we add pressure gauges and shut-off valves for easy maintenance. Typical installation takes 4–6 hours and rarely requires wall or floor demolition. If your line is hard to access or code upgrades are needed (e.g., backflow prevention), we’ll review that with you beforehand.
How much ongoing maintenance should I expect?
Maintenance depends on the modules you choose: • Sediment/carbon pre-filters: replace every 6–12 months ($35–$60 each). • Water softener resin: clean with salt; add 40-lb bags about every 6–8 weeks for a family of four (≈$8–$10 per bag). • Catalytic carbon/iron-sulfur media: lasts 5–7 years before rebedding. • UV disinfection lamp: replace bulb annually and clean quartz sleeve (≈$120). We offer affordable service plans, or you can DIY—each step is covered in the owner’s manual and video library.
Do I need a permit or inspection for a purification system in Sequatchie County?
For most residential installations, Sequatchie County does not require a building permit if we tie into existing plumbing inside the home. If we relocate the main line, add a new electrical circuit, or install an outdoor equipment shed, we will file the appropriate mechanical/plumbing permit and schedule the required inspection with the county building department. Our licensed plumbers handle all paperwork, so you stay compliant with local codes and insurance requirements.
What warranties and performance guarantees come with the system?
Our core components carry industry-leading coverage: 10-year warranty on mineral tanks and brine tanks, 5-year on control valves/electronics, and 1-year on consumables such as filters, lamps, and O-rings. We also provide a 90-day satisfaction guarantee—if post-installation lab results do not meet the targets we promised in writing, we’ll adjust or upgrade the equipment at no additional cost. Optional service plans extend parts and labor to a lifetime warranty as long as our team performs annual maintenance.
