Whole House Water Filtration Solutions

There are various types and sizes of whole house water filtration systems available to address potential water quality issues experienced in Weymouth, Massachusetts town water or well water. Not only is matching the right technology important, but also sizing the system to meet the water usage demands of your home is very important. Additionally, a professionally plumbed system is also critical as well as maintenance of the system throughout the years to optimize the useful life and proper functioning of your new equipment which will process thousands of gallons of water per month.  For a link to the Weymouth annual water quality report, see link at Annual reports.

The preferred starting point is to have the water tested to identify minerals or contaminants in the water and at what quantities.  Upon analysis of the results, an effective system recommendation will provide your home with excellent water quality.  While certain minerals & contaminants can be tested on-site (iron, hardness, pH, total dissolved solids, chlorine level), health threat items like radon in water, arsenic in water, nitrates and others should be properly sampled and brought to a certified laboratory for testing that requires specialized equipment.

WATER SOFTENER SYSTEMS

Water Softener & Sediment Filter

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. Also, high efficiency water softeners that are more efficient with both water and salt usage are preferred.

Sediment & Carbon Filtration

You may notice odor and taste issues if your home is supplied by town water, typically associated with Chlorine. Chlorine is used for disinfection purposes by the town to control microorganisms including bacteria and others that may be present in the water distribution system. Carbon water filtration systems are effective at removing chlorine and the associated taste and odors that come with it. These systems can either be installed at the point of entry in your home, typically in the basement, or at a point of use for drinking water only. Activated carbon also has the capability to remove a host of other contaminants that may be found in the water.
