What Is a Whole-Home Water Filter?
A whole-house water filtration system is a point-of-entry filter that provides water quality protection for your entire home.
A whole-home water filter functions between the home’s main water line and its plumbing system. That means it cleans the water before it enters your home. You’ll also enjoy cleaner water from all sink faucets and showerheads.
Water filtration systems force the water through a series of media stages:
- There’s often a prefilter to trap the largest particulate matter.
- A primary sediment filter will catch finer particles, such as silt.
- Activated carbon removes gases and chemicals through adsorption.
- Some systems also have an ultraviolet (UV) light stage for pathogen neutralization.
You can also opt for conditioning stages, such as those used to adjust pH.


Signs You Need a Water Filtration System
Consider investing in a whole-home water filtration system if you experience any of these issues:
- Cloudy water
- Discolored water
- Bad water taste
- Bad water smell
- Stains on fixtures
- Sediment in the water
Whole-Home Water Filtration System Installation
The process of mechanically filtering water is not a fast one. Filtration takes time, and point-of-entry systems are potential bottlenecks. That’s why professional system sizing is so important.
The system’s flow rate must meet or exceed the household’s peak demand. Otherwise, you’ll experience low water pressure, increased system wear, and other issues.
Our installation process includes:
- Initial consultation
- System selection and sizing
- Installation and configuration
- Walkthrough and demonstration
Water Filtration System Repair & Maintenance
Home water filtration systems generally require annual maintenance. They may need more frequent media replacement depending on the usage.
Maintenance includes cleaning the system and correcting any normal wear and tear. It’s the best way to extend the life of your system and avoid expensive whole-home water filtration repair.
Be proactive if you notice signs you may need whole-home water filtration repair:
- Unusual noises
- Low water pressure
- Changes in water quality
- Error codes or indicator lights
- Increased plumbing problems
