Whole house water filtration system. What are they? Why are they beneficial?

What is a whole house filtration system? These systems are salt free filtration systems that use a sediment filter along with a water conditioner and UV light that filters water and kills bacteria that can come from a well system.

How are these beneficial? These systems remove contaminants like chlorine, lead, pesticides, and bacteria from your water. They also make your water safer to drink and to cook with. Did you know that they can also improve the texture of your hair and reduce your skin’s exposure to irritants from the water?

These systems are also less maintenance than a salt system! Whole house water filtration systems do not have a brine discharge so there is no need for a drain near the install location. Look at the picture below. This is an Aquasana filtration system that we installed just last week for one of our customers.

What are the benefits of a pump station? Should you have one also?

This week we were called out to investigate a possible issue with a pump station. The customer made us aware that the pump seemed to be full and possibly leaking. What is a pump station and why would you need one?

A pump station is a tank where your drains go which will pump sewage uphill to a city tap. Why are these used? These are used when a home sits lower than the city sewer. At times, you cannot rely on gravity for your sewage to flow into the city system.

These pumps on average can last between 10-20 years. Annual maintenance, inspection and grease breakup are also beneficial in extending the life of a pump station. Below are some before and after pictures of replacing the pump station.

Improvise, adapt and overcome

We had a customer reach out to us with complaints about issues with not getting hot water. Our technician arrived and was quick to diagnose the issue. The issue was their tankless water heater’s computer board was fried. So, what’s the next step if this is the case?

Our technician found that replacement was the best option. However, the new unit was not going to fit into the original box that was built for the old tankless heater. Our technician had to adapt and mount the new unit over the box to restore the hot water in the home in a timely manner. Our technicians are always willing and able to improvise, adapt and overcome.

Rerouting back wash? No problem!

A customer wanted his water softener to flow into the woods instead of the septic or the ground next to the house. Why did he decide to make this change? He had discovered that the discharge was killing the grass. Did you know that discharge can also affect your septic system? This water could kill beneficial bacteria that is in your septic tank. Look at the pictures below. As you can see this required a lot of digging for our guys, but of course they are always up for the challenge.

A leaking outdoor spigot or an underground water leak?

Have you ever noticed an outdoor leaking spigot? Most of the time it could be just a simple leak. Other times, it ends up being a much bigger issue. How were our technicians able to tell that there was much more to this than a leaking outdoor spigot?  When our technician checked the spigot, he couldn’t find an issue such as a broken part or a leak. Upon further investigation he heard rushing water echoing in the basement of this home. The leak turned out to be a 4ft deep water leak at the foundation. As you can see in the pictures it took quite a bit of digging to repair the leak, but our technicians are always up for the challenge.
