If you’ve never thought about installing a whole-home filtration system, let us tell you about the benefits. Our water here in Snoqualmie, WA is generally good, but aging pipes and other issues can make a whole-home filtration installation a smart move for anybody.
The Benefits of Whole-Home Filtration Installation in Snoqualmie, WA
Better Water
This is probably the most obvious benefit: you’re just going to get better quality water. Contaminants get removed, including the heavy metals and things like lead that can leach out of your pipes, pesticides that may be entering the water as it flows past farms or factories, bacteria and viruses that can always get into drinking water, and even things like chlorine, which you may not want to drink.
Better Taste and Smell
Not only will your water be cleaner, it will also smell and taste cleaner, too. Chemicals like chlorine change the way your water tastes, and while most people like their water to retain some of its minerals, too much can taste weird. Heavy metals bring their own strange taste of things, and you’ll notice that not only does your water taste better when you drink it straight, but your coffee and tea taste better, too. Depending on how bad the situation is, you might even notice better flavor in your cooking.
Lower Costs
If you’ve been trying to filter your water for a while now or buying bottled water, you’re going to see lower costs overall once you make the investment in a water filtration system. There is an upfront investment involved, true, but once you stop having to buy bottled water and no longer have to buy shower filters to reduce the hardness of your water or countertop filter filters every month or two, the savings will start to add up. You’ll also likely enjoy a greater lifespan for things like your showerhead and even your washer and dishwasher once the water running through them is cleaner.
Fewer Plumbing and Maintenance Issues
If you’ve been constantly having to call in the plumber, you might find that a water filtration system improves the situation measurably. Your pipes will be in better shape when the water running through them is cleaner, and your various appliances that use water won’t need to be fixed or maintained so often. You’ll notice this especially with a water heater, but it can also be noticeable with a refrigerator, your dishwasher, your washing machine, and anything else that uses water in your house.
More Convenient
Finally, having clean water automatically coming out of every faucet is simply a matter of convenience. It’ll be a load off your mind not to have to think about filtering separately for each tap or checking on buildup from hard water in your various appliances, and you won’t ever have to make that decision about whether to run to the store to get more bottled water or just drink from the tap because you don’t have time.
