Whole House Solutions
Whole house water filtration systems will address various water quality issues experienced in Salisbury, Massachusetts well water or town water. Matching the right technology and sizing the system to meet the water usage demands are key. Additionally, a professionally plumbed system is critical as well as maintenance of the system throughout the years. Accordingly, this will optimize the useful life and proper functioning of your new equipment for many years.
You may see symptoms of water quality issues such as bad odors & taste, staining of laundry, bathroom fixtures, etc. While these are indicators, the best starting point is to test and identify the minerals or contaminants in the water. Consequently, this will lead to an effective system recommendation and route to providing your home with excellent water quality.
WATER SOFTENER & OTHER FILTRATION SYSTEMS
High Efficiency Water Softener
A water softener is a type of whole house water filtration system that is designed for removing hard water minerals (magnesium & calcium) as well as dissolved iron and manganese from the water. For water with high levels of iron or manganese (“the stainers”), an “up-flow” water softener is recommended to prevent mineral build-up in the bottom of the water softener. In addition, high efficiency water softeners that are more efficient with both water and salt usage are preferred.
BAD ODORS & TASTE, REVERSE OSMOSIS
Furthermore, there are many other types of systems to remove bad tastes & odors, sediment and other objectionable minerals and contaminants in the water. For example, reverse osmosis technology is a top rated approach to providing purified drinking water. See the link at https://h2ocare.com/reverse-osmosis-ro-water-purif/.

REMOVAL OF PFAS
PFAS Removal System
PFAS in water can be removed with a two tank system containing resin developed specifically to remove these chemicals from water. A “lead-lag” system will effectively and safely keep PFAS chemicals from entering your water supply. Reverse Osmosis for a point-of-use drinking water system with additional activated carbon is another approach. Speak to your water treatment professional to see which approach is best for you.
