FAQs
What types of water-purification system upgrades do you offer in Soddy-Daisy?
We install and service whole-house carbon filtration, reverse-osmosis (RO) drinking stations, UV sterilizers, water softeners, and hybrid systems that combine multiple technologies. Our team will test your municipal or well water, review any specific contaminants common to the Tennessee Valley (such as chlorine by-products, iron, sulfur, and sediment), and recommend the best unit or combination of units for your home and budget.
How can I tell which purification system is right for my family’s needs?
The first step is a comprehensive water analysis. We take on-site samples to measure hardness, pH, dissolved solids, chlorine/chloramine, iron, manganese, bacteria, and other potential contaminants. Based on those lab results, your household size, usage patterns, and space constraints, we present a written comparison of suitable systems, expected performance, and lifetime costs. This data-driven approach ensures you choose a unit that solves your specific water issues without overspending on unnecessary features.
Will a purification system also fix my hard-water problems (spots, scale, dry skin)?
Most purification devices target chemical or biological contaminants, while hardness is caused by dissolved calcium and magnesium. If hard water is a concern, we pair your purifier with a salt-based or salt-free softener/conditioner. The two units can share plumbing and control heads, giving you crystal-clear, great-tasting, and gentle water throughout the house. During our assessment we explain the pros and cons of each softening method so you can decide what best suits your lifestyle and maintenance preferences.
How long does installation take, and will my water be turned off?
A typical whole-house system upgrade takes 3–5 hours. We shut off the main supply only long enough to cut in the bypass loop and tie the purifier into your plumbing—usually 30–45 minutes. Drinking-station RO units are mounted under the kitchen sink in about 1–2 hours with minimal disruption. Before we leave, we flush the new filters, sanitize the lines, and test the water to confirm the system is operating correctly.
What kind of maintenance do water-purification systems require?
Most carbon filters need cartridge changes every 6–12 months, while RO membranes last 2–5 years depending on usage and feed-water quality. UV lamps must be replaced annually to maintain germicidal strength, and softener resin requires periodic salt or potassium refills. We include a maintenance schedule in your welcome packet and offer optional service plans that cover filter deliveries, lamp swaps, system sanitization, and performance checks so you never have to track dates yourself.
Do you offer warranties, financing, or local incentives for these upgrades?
Yes. Our preferred purification brands carry 5- to 10-year warranties on tanks and control valves, plus 1- to 3-year coverage on electronics. We back our labor with a one-year workmanship guarantee. Financing is available through our lending partners with 0% promotional terms for qualified homeowners. In some cases, EPB and TVA offer rebates for high-efficiency softeners that reduce energy and detergent use—ask us to check current programs when we quote your project.
