Understanding the Importance of Water Treatment Services
Plumbing
Have you ever wondered what’s in your tap water? The results might be shocking. Access to safe and clean water in your home is crucial. With growing concerns about water quality, it’s more important than ever to ensure your water is free from harmful substances. In this blog, we’ll provide more insight into the importance of water treatments and explain what services will benefit you.Â
What are the benefits of water treatment?
Water treatment services provide solutions to eliminate various water issues, like hardness, sediments, bacteria, and chemicals. A customized treatment plan can resolve common hard water issues, such as foul odor or taste, cloudy water, and mineral spots.
Additionally, these treatments prevent buildup, corrosion, and rust stains in plumbing fixtures. Addressing these issues will prevent any damage to your plumbing while ensuring you have access to safe and clean water.Â
Common types of water treatments
There are several different types of water treatments. Some of the most common include:
- Reverse osmosisÂ
- Water softenersÂ
- Sediment and carbon filtersÂ
At Black Diamond Plumbing & Mechanical, our team of expert plumbers can diagnose and test the quality of your water to help you determine the best water treatment for your needs.
Reverse osmosisÂ
Reverse osmosis purifies water by applying pressure to water molecules. When they pass through the semi-permeable membranes, all of the contaminants are left behind, leaving you with clean drinking water.Â
With a high success rate, reverse osmosis is about 99% effective in removing contaminants like sodium, chloride, copper, and lead from your water. Investing in these filters will reduce your need to purchase water bottles, making it a cost-effective and sustainable option.Â
At Black Diamond Plumbing & Mechanical, we can walk you through all of the benefits of investing in a reverse osmosis filtration system and how it will work.Â
Water softeningÂ
Water softening systems are another commonly used water filtration system to combat hard water issues. They use resin beads to attract the hard water minerals, removing the harsh minerals and chemicals in your water.Â
Water softeners offer many benefits including preventing calcium and limescale buildup on appliances, protecting plumbing fixtures from rust, and getting rid of mineral deposits all while providing cleaner and softer water.Â
Water softening is a great solution to your hard water problems, you will have to remember to add salt regularly. A general rule of thumb is to add about a bag of salt every month or when you notice any changes in filtration.Â
A Black Diamond plumber will be able to educate you on all of the upkeep required to ensure your water stays clean.Â
Sediment & carbon filters
Whole house sediment and carbon filters provide clean drinking water throughout your entire home. This dual filtration system will clean your water and remove any odor or bad taste from your water.Â
You will need both filters in place to prevent contaminants because they filter out different things. Sediment filters are the first line of defense and trap sand, dirt, and dust. The water then passes through the carbon filter to eliminate any remaining impurities from leftover minerals.Â
Routine upkeep includes changing out the filter periodically. Otherwise, it’s an easy to use two-step process that will give you peace of mind knowing your water is purified.Â
