Water Filter Installation: Clear, Clean Water for Wh2ole Home
Imagine turning on your faucet and having clean, refreshing water flow through every tap in your house. That’s the magic of a whole-home water filter system that purifies your water supply before it reaches any fixture or appliance. To understand how it works, we need to join a water molecule on its journey to your bathtub or hydration flask.
- Municipal Supply: Your water journey begins at the municipal water treatment plant where it began life as wastewater and, after the city treats the water to remove harmful contaminants and bacteria, it’s ready for a new mission.
- Entry Point: The treated water travels through underground pipes and reaches your home’s main water line. This is where the whole-home water filter system is installed, at the point the city supply line enters your property.
- Pre-filtration: Whole-home systems often start with a sediment pre-filter. This sieve snags the low-hanging fruit, or rather large dirt, sand, and rust particles that hitched a ride during its journey and could gum up the more delicate steps down the line.
- The Main Event: The heart of the system depends on the specific type of contaminants the unit is designed to you want to remove. Various processes focus on different impurities:
- Activated Carbon Filtration: Activated charcoal granules, irregularly shaped to maximize their surface area act like tiny magnets, attracting and trapping chlorine, chloramines, volatile organic compounds, and elements that make water taste and smell unpleasant.
- Reverse Osmosis: An advanced filtration method that uses a semi-permeable membrane to remove a broader spectrum of contaminants, including dissolved minerals, heavy metals, and even bacteria. RO filtration is particularly effective for homes using well water or private water supplies.
- Ultraviolet Light: Using the part of the spectrum with shorter wavelengths than visible light, UV purification penetrates and disrupts the DNA of viruses, bacteria, and mold.
- Clean Water Distribution: Once the water is thoroughly filtered, it’s ready for use! Your plumbing system distributes the clean, purified water is then to faucets, showerheads, dishwashers, and more.
It is important to note that whole-home water filters typically do not address water hardness. They don’t perform as water softeners, exchanging calcium and magnesium ions for sodium ions. Soft water can prolong the lifespan of water-using appliances such as water heaters, washing machines, dishwashers, and coffee machines, while also enhancing the effectiveness of soaps and shampoos. Whole-home water filters, on the other hand, focus on removing contaminants that can negatively affect the taste, smell, and overall quality of your water.
