Water softeners remove minerals from hard water, while water filters remove impurities from both hard and soft water.

Water softeners can extend the life of your plumbing and appliances, save you money on soap and detergent, and leave your skin and hair feeling softer and cleaner.

Water filters can improve the taste of your water, remove chlorine and other chemicals, and reduce the risk of lead and other contaminants.

Most water filters should be changed every 6 months to 1 year.

Water softeners should be changed every 2 to 3 years.

Some of the most common drinking water contaminants include lead, chlorine, and fluoride. It’s important to note that some contaminants are visible in the water, and some are not. That’s why it’s so important to work with a professional to ensure that your water is safe to drink.

PFAS, PFOA, and PFOS are man-made chemicals that have been used in a variety of products, including non-stick cookware, food packaging, and water-repellent clothing. These chemicals can be found in drinking water supplies across the country. Some additional products that may contain PFAS, PFOA, or PFOS include:


1. Carpets and upholstery
2. Cosmetics
3. Firefighting foam
4. Food
5. Household cleaning products
6. Paints and coatings

Reverse osmosis is one of the most effective ways to remove PFAS, PFOA, and PFOS from drinking water.

Reverse Osmosis is a water filtration process that removes impurities from water by forcing it through a semi-permeable membrane. Reverse Osmosis is an effective way to remove a variety of contaminants, including lead, chlorine, and fluoride.

Reverse Osmosis works by forcing water through a semi-permeable membrane. The water is then filtered and purified, leaving behind any contaminants. Unlike osmosis, which is a passive process, reverse osmosis requires external force (pressure) to work. Pressure is applied to a highly concentrated solute solution (e.g., salt water) to pass through a membrane to a lower concentrate solution. The membrane allows water to flow through but blocks out larger molecules, like contaminants. The reverse osmosis process leaves higher concentrations of solute (e.g., salt) on one side and only the solvent (e.g., freshwater) on the other.

City water is treated with chemicals to remove impurities, while well water is not. City water is also monitored for safety by the government, while well water is not. Each type has its own issues. For example, Iron and Sulfide can be found in most well water. These minerals are not harmful but can cause staining in laundry, discoloration of fixtures, and an unpleasant taste. Arsenic, radon, and bacteria can also be found in well water. These contaminants can be harmful to your health and should be tested for by a professional. City water often can smell or taste like chlorine. This is because chlorine is used to disinfect the water. The amount of chlorine in city water is closely regulated by the government. Rest assured, we have products available for all types of water, no matter where it comes from.

You might not need a water filter, but it depends on your specific situation. The best way to determine if you need a water filter is to have your water tested by a professional. They will be able to tell you what contaminants are in your water and what, if any, filters you need.

In most cases, yes. Well water is not treated with chemicals like city water, so it’s more likely to contain contaminants. The best way to determine if you need a water filter is to have your water tested by a professional.

The best way to filter your drinking water is to work with a professional who can test your water and recommend the best filtration system for your needs. There are many different types of water filters, and not all filters remove the same contaminants.

Some water filters do remove beneficial minerals from your water, but not all of them. The best way to determine if a water filter will remove minerals from your water is to read the manufacturer’s specifications. Alternatively, you can work with a professional who can test your water and recommend the best filtration system for your needs.
