Whole-House Water Filtration
Safety for the entire family, everywhere.
Whole-house water filtration is also known as
“point of entry filtration” because the water pulled
into your house is filtered before it enters your
pipes--contrary to “point of use,” like an under-the-
sink filter. Installation of a whole-house water filter
is pretty tricky, unless you’re a licensed plumber
from Top Notch Plumbing!
Do I need whole-house water filtration?
The answer is different for each household. While
filtering water before it enters your house’s
plumbing gives you maximum security from
contaminants, some people may opt for the
convenience of a kitchen sink filter. If you know
that your city water is significantly free of
contaminants a point of use filter may save you
money on the front end.
If you’re a typical person who has no idea about the
quality of their city or well water, you might want
to consider getting a unit for your entire house.
The benefit of whole-house filtration is twofold:
1.
For starters, your home’s plumbing is given an
extra layer of defense against damaging
buildup and mineral deposits.
2.
More importantly, the water from every faucet,
tap, and head in your house is filtered, clean,
and safe.
Why stop at the water you drink? Our bodies also
interact with water through our skin by way of
showers, laundry units, and dishwashers.
VOCs
VOC is the acronym for Volatile Organic
Compound. Many VOCs are chemicals from
processed or industrial materials like paint,
cosmetics, dry-cleaned clothes, and fuel. The EPA
lists VOCs from sources like these and others as
being common groundwater contaminants. They
also describe numerous and varied health effects of
VOCs.
How does this relate to plumbing and water
filtration?
VOCs can be removed from your home’s plumbing
system if, depending on where you live, they’re in
the water. More than simply carried by the water
you wash your hands in, VOCs can also be
aerosolized and emitted into the air from high-
pressure systems like showers.
Speaking of it, where you live does matter.
Thankfully, our service area is expansive and our
knowledge of each town is extensive!
Can I install a filtration unit on my own?
Maybe, but having a professional do it is the best
way to protect your home and family from short
and long-term accidents. The process involves
cutting and sealing pipes, placing valves, soldering
fittings, and--possibly--a bit of electrical
engineering.
