Water Purification Services near The Woodlands & Magnolia, TX
How Does a Water Filtration System Work?
Water filtration refers to any system or process used to filter out, remove or treat unwanted and undesirable chemicals, particles, contaminants or pollutants from the water in your home. You and your family want the cleanest water for your Woodlands and Magnolia, TX area home and a water filtration system is the perfect solution.
The total costs come down to two major factors, the cast of the installation and the size and type of filtration system you decide on.
The type, size, filter capacity, and other features of the filtration system itself will determine how much it costs. Between $3,000 and $6,000, anything is conceivable depending on what you’re looking for. (It will cost more if you need additional plumbing work or updating of your old system).
Most dangerous contaminants are invisible and tasteless. Some dangerous contaminants, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), can make water taste bad and smell like chemicals or gasoline. VOCs come in a variety of forms and have various negative effects on health: Some harm the nervous system, liver, or kidneys, irritate the skin, and mucous membranes, or cause cancer. It might be necessary to conduct additional testing to identify the VOCs in your water in order to choose the best filter. In order to filter out VOCs, it is best to use a whole-house or point-of-entry system. These systems provide safe water for drinking, cooking, and bathing as well as for cleaning and other household tasks. Some VOCs can be eliminated by activated carbon filters.
A whole-house filter makes sure that every tap in the house always provides filtered water. By saving money, reducing plastic bottle waste, and bringing peace of mind, these systems are investments that can yield enormous returns.

What’s in my water?
Even though we feel the water we drink and bathe with is clean and we have nothing to worry about, all sources of water has some level of contamination. In most areas, your home’s water does meet the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act standard. Unfortunately there are only a small percentage of them that are regulated leaving thousands of chemicals that may not be under the government standard.
The vast majority of contaminant levels in our homes are normally not high enough to cause immediate sickness or something that you notice. But over longer periods of time you or someone in your home could have a chronic health issue that may have been triggered by the daily water you use.
