FAQs
What specific water quality issues in Sunbright do your innovative filtration systems address?
Sunbright’s municipal supply typically contains moderate hardness, trace sediments from aging pipes, and seasonal spikes in chlorine-based disinfectants. Our multi-stage systems combine sediment pre-filters, catalytic carbon blocks, and proprietary TAC (Template Assisted Crystallization) media to remove particulates down to 5 µm, reduce chlorine/chloramine taste and odor by up to 99 %, and neutralize hardness minerals without adding salt. The result is clearer, better-tasting water that protects plumbing fixtures and appliances from scale build-up.
How does your salt-free TAC technology compare with traditional water softeners?
Traditional ion-exchange softeners replace calcium and magnesium ions with sodium or potassium, requiring periodic salt regeneration and producing brine discharge. Our TAC cartridges alter the crystal structure of hardness minerals so they remain in suspension and do not adhere to pipes or heating elements. Advantages include: (1) zero salt bags to buy or lift, (2) no electricity or drain connection, (3) no slippery “soft-water” feel, and (4) compliance with Sunbright’s eco-effluent guidelines because no brine enters the sewer system. While TAC does not reduce TDS, it delivers comparable protection against scale up to 25 gpg hardness.
Can the system be installed in any Sunbright home, and how long does installation take?
Yes. Our compact manifold is designed for crawl-space, garage, or mechanical-closet mounting and ties into the main ¾" or 1" copper, PEX, or CPVC line. A typical single-family installation takes 2–3 hours, including a pressure test and flushing. Homes on private wells or with booster pumps may require an optional pre-sediment stage or pressure-regulating valve, which we stock on our service trucks. Every installation is performed by a licensed Sunbright master plumber and carries a city-filed permit.
What routine maintenance is required and what are the ongoing costs?
Maintenance is straightforward: replace the sediment cartridge every 6–12 months (about $20) and the catalytic carbon/TAC cartridge every 3 years or 250,000 gallons (about $180). No back-washing, salt refills, or electricity is needed. We email flow-based reminders, and our Sunbright service plan offers discounted filter bundles and an annual 15-point plumbing inspection for $99 per year.
Will the filtration system affect my household water pressure?
Our manifold is engineered for less than 3 psi pressure drop at 10 gpm, which is negligible for most Sunbright residences (city pressure averages 60–70 psi). Even during simultaneous shower and laundry use, homeowners report no noticeable change. For high-demand applications (large families or irrigation tie-ins), we offer a dual-parallel version that doubles flow capacity while maintaining the same filtration performance.
Is the system certified and does it come with a warranty?
All critical filtration stages carry NSF/ANSI 42 and 61 certifications for material safety and chlorine reduction. The TAC media is tested to DVGW-W512 for scale prevention efficacy. Housings are pressure-rated to 125 psi and made from BPA-free, food-grade polypropylene. We provide a 10-year warranty on the tank and manifold, 3 years on cartridges, and a 1-year labor warranty covering any installation-related service calls within Sunbright city limits.
