We cannot deny the importance of water, especially drinking water, but is your water really clean enough for you to drink? You’d be surprised at what could be lurking in your tap water. So what do we do to minimize the risk of damage and illnesses caused by contaminated or hard water?

Water filtration systems for your house can help reduce contaminants such as chlorine, iron, sulfur and more from your water. Whole house water filters bring cleaner water to every tap in your home.

  • Bad flavors in your drinking water
  • Rust stains on your appliances

Are Whole House Water Filters Worth It?

While the treatment center processes and treats the water before distributing it to your home, not everything is removed. This is especially true as new and emerging contaminants like PFOA, PFOS, pesticide and pharmaceutical runoff has impacted our water sources. Many treatment centers weren’t set up to eliminate some of these contaminants, and haven’t been updated to be effective. Further, water can pick up more contaminants as it travels from treatment centers to your home from aging infrastructure and old lead piping. This is where a whole house filter can help.

Do you get your water from a well? Well water often has dirt, silt, clay and other types of sediment — all things a whole house water filter can help with. In fact, Culligan’s High Efficiency Whole House Well Water Filter Systems are customized to treat well water that’s specific to your region, so you can enjoy better quality water no matter where it originated from.

If you’re experiencing any of the problems listed above, a whole house water filter is worth it. More than just a water filter for your faucet, these filters help t take hard or problem water and turn it into cleaner, safer water that’s better for your entire home and family.
