Water Filtration - Davie, FL

If you want to ensure your family drinks and bathes with the cleanest water possible, consider upgrading to a whole-home water filtration system in Davie, FL. While you can test your water for impurities, a successful test today is no guarantee of clean water tomorrow. You could rely on bottled water, as many families do. Unfortunately, that’s bad for the environment and more expensive than a home water purifier long term. That’s why Bamboo Plumbing recommends a point-of-entry (POE) water purification system as the ultimate solution.

A key consideration with any POE water filtration system is the flow rate. A common way to assess water purifier flow rate is gallons per minute (GPM). The GPM must be equal to or greater than the household’s peak water demand. If demand exceeds the flow rate, you’ll experience low water pressure. A 15-GPM system is plenty for the average household. There are also systems with much higher flow rates for larger households.

Another consideration is what your water purifier can filter and how much. This varies from system to system depending on the various filter media they house. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends looking for the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) label. The NSF certifies many of the water purifiers available for home use. Certified systems have an NSF label that lists in great detail what the system removes and neutralizes.

Most water purification systems for the home will have one or more sediment filters. Often, there will be a prefilter and then a primary mechanical filter. A prefilter is necessary for well systems. It’s also helpful for municipal water systems, as it helps preserve the primary filter.

For sediment filters, pore size is an important characteristic. The smaller the pore size, the more the filter can trap, including particles like cysts. Take care when considering pore size. For instance, there’s a big difference between absolute and mean pore size.

Most whole-house water filtration systems will have activated charcoal as well. This highly adsorptive material is ideal for making drinking water smell and taste better. It’s also very effective at adsorbing gases (including volatile organic compounds) and chemicals, such as pharmaceuticals.

Sediment filters can trap pathogens to a certain degree. If you want highly effective pathogen neutralization, consider a water purifier with ultraviolet (UV) light. They can eliminate most bacteria and viruses in the water. You can also opt for conditioning stages, such as to increase pH or lower water hardness.

A whole-house water purification system can remove many impurities from your drinking water.
