Water Filtration Services

If you’re concerned about impurities in your home water supply, you may need to consider implementing a water filtration system. If you’ve noticed that your drinking water tastes strange, you may require a point-of-use water filtration system. These issues may expand throughout the home; you may need to implement a whole-house water treatment system with carbon and sediment filters. Our plumbers will ensure your needs are met with our water treatment services. Enhancing your tap water’s taste not only encourages increased consumption but also reduces the need for bottled water, helping you save costs while promoting hydration.

Water Softeners & Conditioning Services

Hard water [1] in the home can have lasting effects on you and your family. It can damage skin and hair, calcify your plumbing and leave laundry feeling like sandpaper. This is why water softening and conditioning services are essential to consider if you’ve experienced any of the above issues. When you implement a water treatment system, you can reduce sediment buildup on plumbing fixtures and appliances, making them last longer. It can also increase the efficiency of your appliances because detergents lather and work better in soft water. Not to mention the added benefits it brings to your skin and hair!

In Tennessee, your water may come from either groundwater or surface water. Groundwater originates from precipitation in the form of rain or snow and seeps into the ground, which will pool in what’s known as an ‘aquifer.’ [2] This water is then pumped by a well to the water company, where it’s treated, stored, and then flows to your faucet upon demand. However, groundwater can also be obtained from a spring, and typically, this water is not treated by a water company; therefore, it’s usually safer to introduce water treatment at home. Surface water is sent to a treatment plant before reaching your home.

Unfortunately, pollution can also affect the quality of water you can access. Toxic substances from farms, towns, and factories readily dissolve into local reservoirs and mix with them, causing water pollution. 80% of the world’s wastewater flows into the environment without treatment. In the US, the EPA estimates that due to the aging sewage infrastructure, more than 850 billion gallons of untreated wastewater each year is released back into our surroundings [3]. Installing a wastewater treatment system in your home is the best way to improve water quality and ensure your family always has access to treated water.

While a public water system may supply your water, it doesn’t mean it’s automatically tested for you. The presence of specific contaminants in your home can lead to health issues, including gastrointestinal illness, reproductive problems, and neurological disorders. Infants, young children, pregnant women, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems may be especially at risk for illness [4]. That’s why it’s essential to conduct your water quality testing. You can contact the clean water experts at Hoffmann Brothers in Nashville, who can conduct an at-home water quality test for you and provide detailed options to improve your home’s water quality.
