A whole house water filtration system solves water quality problems.
Do you have difficulties with the water quality in your home? Does your tap water taste strange, or have a bad odor? Some of your household fixtures may have blue and green or brown and black staining or orange and brown staining in your laundry. Some homes deal with a rotten-egg smell from water sources, or sediment and calcium build up on faucets and fixtures. Water treatment is the solution to water quality problems.
All of these are symptoms of low water quality and could be indicators of even worse issues in your homes water supply. Arsenic is an odorless and tasteless semi-metal element that is detected in 20% of New England homes. This can create possibly dangerous situations for anyone drinking or using the water in your home, whether you are using wells or the cities water supply. Other contaminants can flow into the water supply from water run off from rain, sleet or snow, seeping through the ground and into your water supply, with over 89% of water supply systems drawing from water found underground with rock, sand, and gravel contaminants.
Water Treatment Options
There are different ways of dealing with these problems. First of all, you should look into testing your water supply, by contacting the Department of Health and Human Services, which can help you find out the quality of your water. Secondly, if you do find that your water supply is lacking in quality, you might consider installing a whole house water filtration system.

These benefits can apply equally to homes which receive their water from well sources as well as city water.
