Well water filtration systems for homeowners
In Colorado Springs, our homeowners are constantly on the go. Whether they’re coming home to a hot shower on a cold winter’s day or keeping family hydrated in the summer months, water is an essential asset to our residents’ everyday life. It is estimated that a single household uses 80 to 100 gallons of water in a single day, making access to sanitary water the backbone of a happy and healthy household.
Wells supply households with water directly sourced from groundwater. Groundwater is easily contaminated by agricultural chemicals, fuels, sediments, and heavy metals that seep into the environment. Many water contaminants have no taste, smell, or appearance, posing health concerns to those without home water filtration systems. Flow Right offers water conditioning resources to enhance the taste and safety of your family’s water.
There’s no water filtration or water treatment service cleaning the water coming from a well. If there’s something in your water or something that intermittently comes into your groundwater, like iron, you have to filter it yourself.
Benefits of whole house water filtration for homes on a well water system
Your water filtration system will improve water quality by removing common contaminants found in unfiltered well water like arsenic, iron, chlorine, fluoride, and lead, reducing exposure to toxins that can have negative impacts on health. A sign that you may need a whole house well water filter is if you notice dry hair or skin after showering.
Removing harsh minerals and chemicals from your water supply will eliminate rust stains and corrosion on appliances so your house can look cleaner, longer. Iron, lead, and cadmium are toxic metals commonly found in unfiltered water that corrode piping systems in large concentrations.
A whole house water filtration system can ensure comfortable and safe consumption of water. The taste of your water is a reflection of the environment you live in. Depending on where you reside, your water will taste differently. If you’re close by to a known polluting entity or a fracking well, there could be a significant impact on the taste and safety of your water.
How does well water filtration work?
A whole house water filtration system works to pump treated well water to your home, affecting the dishes you cook with and clean to the water used to drink and bathe. The water filtration system is installed at the main water line of a home and dispenses treated water from faucets, kitchens, showers, baths, and laundry machines.
Water filtration systems filter out high concentrations of contaminants through Reverse Osmosis (RO) technology. The RO system distills your water supply and is installed under your counter to optimize installation space and design.
RO water filtration technology removes a large majority of contaminants by pushing water through a semipermeable membrane, sending clean water to your faucet while directing wastewater down the drain. The filtering capacity is boosted by a carbon filter, which removes bad tastes and odors from water, and a sediment filter, which traps groundwater dirt and debris before it can make its way to your faucet.
Balancing cost efficiency and quality design
Flow Right offers expert service done by Master Plumbers, whose designs and installations will ensure a system tailored to fit your home’s specific needs. Flow Right boasts a record of excellent customer service, providing you with high quality filtration systems at an affordable and reasonable cost.
Differences between the condition of water coming into your house for consumption and the water going out for irrigation will determine the design and installation of your home water filtration system.
To install, we may need to repipe portions of your home to make sure that anything that could be used for irrigation is not piped to certain pieces of the filtration or softening system. The quality of the water that can be spread for irrigation can be either softened or treated and filtered differently than water that is going into the home.
