How Water Treatment and Purification Works

Everyone values clean, drinkable water, and a water treatment and purification system ensures you’ll have it 100% of the time. Even in areas with excellent water quality, there is always a risk of water system contamination; a whole-home water filter can remove those harmful elements.

These systems also help with hard water. Your water might contain high amounts of magnesium and calcium, which can affect your plumbing system’s performance. Even if these minerals aren’t concentrated enough to impact your plumbing, they can still lead to itchy skin and unpleasant-tasting water. A water softener is the best way to eliminate hard water issues.

Whether you choose a whole home water filter or a softener, both devices remove unwanted elements from your water, leaving you with cleaner, safer water throughout your home.

Benefits of Water Treatment and Purification

If you notice mineral deposits near the water fixtures in your home, you may need to rethink your water filtration system. To extend the life of your plumbing system, we recommend installing a water softener.

If hard water isn’t your problem, you’d benefit more from a water filter. These devices are designed to strip the contaminants from water, leaving it clean and better tasting. Like water softeners, filters can also improve the lifespan of your plumbing system.

In addition to those benefits, water treatment and purification services also help with the following:

• Soap and Detergent Problems: Hard water prevents soap from dissolving properly, making showering, laundry, and household chores more difficult. Water softeners soften your water to prevent these issues.
• Plumbing Line Buildup: As mineral deposits build up in pipes, your plumbing system could clog and even burst. A water softener can keep mineral buildup from occurring.
• Water Spots: Do your dishes have water spots that won’t go away? A water softener can eliminate these unsightly stains.
• Water Sanitation: If the water in your city or well ever gets contaminated, your water filter will keep you safe. Water filters remove harmful elements, making your water drinkable and safe to use.

If you can’t choose between a filter or a softener, one of our licensed plumbers can help you make the right decision for your home.

Water Treatment and Purification FAQs

Are water filters and softeners the same?

Water softeners and filters are similar, but they are not the same. The primary difference between them is that water softeners do not filter water.

Water softeners are specifically designed to soften hard water. They remove calcium and magnesium minerals, both of which lead to hard water issues. A water softener is recommended wherever hard water is common, but it should still be used with a water filter.

A water filter, on the other hand, removes contaminants from your water. This improves the smell and taste of your water and makes it safer to drink. You can find both whole-home water filters and point-of-use filters that attach to a single fixture.
