Expert Reverse Osmosis Installation
Reverse osmosis is one of the most effective water filtration systems available. These systems use RO membranes capable of removing 95% to 99% of inorganic materials from water. As water enters an RO system, it is pressurized, forcing it through a semipermeable membrane.
Contaminants are left behind while purified water flows out of the system. Unlike traditional filters that simply trap and hold contaminants until they are discarded, RO actively separates clean water from waste. The system then flushes the waste away. To maintain optimal performance, it’s important to rinse the filter regularly before use.
RO systems are able to filter out the following contaminants:
- Chlorine
- Fluoride
- Magnesium
- Sediment
- Salt
- Microplastics
- Pesticides and herbicides
Many of these systems are whole-house carbon filters that effectively eliminate chlorine from water, enhancing its smell and taste. If you think an RO system is the right choice for your Gainesville home, contact us for installation.
Water Softener System in Gainesville
A water softener system serves as a comprehensive solution for treating hard water throughout your home by eliminating the minerals responsible for its hardness. If your water contains magnesium and calcium, the water softener effectively captures these minerals through an ion exchange process.
In this system, hard water flows into a bed of resin beads that carry a negative charge. The positively charged magnesium and calcium attract to the beads, allowing them to latch on. In return, the beads release sodium ions, which replace the hard minerals, resulting in soft water for your household.
The presence of hard water can inflict significant damage on your plumbing. When minerals in the water harden, they form scale deposits that adhere to your pipes’ interiors, leading to potential clogs.
Water softeners operate on a whole-house basis, treating the water before it enters your plumbing system, thereby mitigating these issues. To maintain a water softener system, every month check salt levels, clean the brine tank, use premium salt, and contact us for system flushes to prevent buildup and guarantee efficiency.
The benefits of a water softener include the following:
- Protects appliances
- Better lathering from soap
- Cleaner hair and dishes
- Maintains plumbing system quality
- Lasts for 15-20 years
Our team of experienced plumbers can help you choose and install a high-quality water softener system.
