Are you worried about bacteria and other impurities contaminating your water supply? Although you may not lose sleep over it, there is a real chance that harmful pathogens and impurities could make your drinking water unsafe.
For homeowners in Livonia, MI, the best defense against impurities in the water is a whole-house water filtration system. At Rooter MD Plumbing LLC, we specialize in home water filtration system installation and repair services.
When choosing a water filtration system for your home, you should consider the main issues you are trying to solve. Are you looking for a filtration system that will battle hard water? Or are you more worried about specific bacteria that could make your family sick? Some of the most common residential water filtration systems include:
Carbon Filters: With multiple layers of active carbon, this filter captures impurities and bacteria in the water, leaving fresh, crisp, delicious drinking water.
Reverse Osmosis is the process of moving water from a high ion concentration to a low ion concentration by forcing it through a special membrane. The result is water that is 99.99% pure.
Water Softeners: Hard water occurs in the home when there is an excess amount of harmful minerals like calcium and magnesium. A water softener uses salt crystals to neutralize these minerals and make your water safe to use.
We partner with NOVO at Rooter MD for top-of-the-line Total Home Protection Systems. Our team of experts can install these systems to ensure your family has the best water treatment option available.
Whole-home water filtration typically removes more impurities than other methods. They can effectively eliminate a broad range of contaminants from water, but what the filter removes depends on the type of filter you’re using. Combining treatment methods can result in a filtration system that removes nearly every contaminant from your water.
Most purely physical water filters remove silt, dirt, sediment, and sand from your water.
Removing dissolved ions or chemicals in your water requires a chemical or active filter. For instance, Granular activated carbon (GAC) filters effectively remove chlorine from your water, while catalytic carbon filters work well to remove chloramines.
Because of its effectiveness at removing organic compounds, a GAC filter is one of the best filters to eliminate pesticides and other chemicals. Catalytic carbon filters also effectively remove pesticides, sediment, arsenic, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), among other chemicals.
Fluoride can be a challenge to remove from water, but a reverse osmosis system is the most effective and cost-efficient way to remove it.
Iron and manganese can be removed with an oxidizing filter, while sulfur can often be reduced using a GAC filter. Iron filters also remove iron, sulfur, and manganese from your water.
In addition to getting water that is safe to drink and use in the home, there are a few other benefits that you will enjoy when you decide to install a filtration system:
