If you are a new homeowner, welcome to the world of real estate maintenance, which is part and parcel of property ownership. In this short article, we take a look at the water filtration options that are available to US homeowners.
- Lime water filter system – Too much lime in the water is not good; a build-up of magnesium and calcium can cause pipe corrosion. Installing a lime filter for water in your home will remove excess elements that can cause dry hair and brittle nails. Your water tank will suffer from excess build-up of lime and in some cases, a new tank is required. Don’t wait until it is too late, save your water tank by installing lime filtration.
- Reverse osmosis water filtration – Known simply as RO, this is a very effective way to have clean drinkable water. A multi-stage process that filters all contaminants from your mains water supply; pressure forces the water through membranes that act as filters. A typical RO system has 3 types of filters; sediment filter, carbon filter and a semipermeable membrane.
- Activated carbon filtration - Activated carbon is very effective at filtering water; start with a Google search for ‘active charcoal filters near me’ and that should put you in touch with a local water filtration specialist.
Whole house water filtration systems
If you want to be 100% sure that the water you drink is pure, install a whole-house water filtration system and with regular filter changes, you have a supply of pure water that tastes great! This is the obvious choice for every American homeowner and there will be a supplier in your town or city. You will notice the difference when you shower and every faucet is protected.
10-year warranty
When you deal with a top-rated water filtration company they offer an unconditional warranty for 10 years; indeed, they send an engineer to test your water a few months after the installation. Start by booking a home visit and a few tests can be carried out; not much point in having filtration if your water is clean! Then a quote can be issued and if you’re good with that, a system is designed and installed.
