No Leak Too Small, No Job Too Big
If your water smells like chlorine, leaves residue on dishes, stains sinks and tubs, or causes dry skin and hair, a filtration system can help. These are signs of hard water, excessive sediment, or chemical treatment by the municipal supply.
Some systems are also installed as a preventative measure to protect plumbing and appliances from long-term wear and tear. We’ve also had customers install filters after noticing their laundry is fading quickly or their water heater seems to be struggling with sediment buildup.
Lexington’s water is generally safe, but that doesn’t always mean it’s ideal. A filtration system adds another layer of protection and comfort.
Installing a filtration system at the main water line means every faucet, appliance, and fixture in your home benefits from cleaner water. You’ll notice immediate improvements in taste, smell, and clarity. It’s also a smart way to extend the life of appliances like water heaters, dishwashers, and washing machines. Less sediment and mineral buildup means better efficiency and fewer breakdowns over time.
Filtered water can also be easier on your skin and hair, especially for those with sensitivity to chlorine or other treatment chemicals. And in the long run, a filtration system can improve the resale value of your home by offering a more modern, health-conscious plumbing setup.
You’ll find plenty of water filters in big-box stores, but most of them are undersized, poorly installed, or not matched to the actual water quality needs of the home. We start every installation with a full review of your water source, pipe layout, and pressure system. Then we select a system that fits your usage patterns and long-term needs.
We handle the entire installation process, including any needed shut-offs, pressure adjustments, and system testing. We also install professional-grade equipment that lasts longer and performs better than consumer-grade models. And if your system ever needs maintenance or filter replacement down the road, you already have a licensed plumbing team familiar with the install.
For Lexington customers who want an added level of purity at the kitchen sink, we also install point-of-use reverse osmosis systems. These are excellent for drinking and cooking water, as they filter out lead, fluoride, and other trace elements that even whole-home filters may not catch. We typically install RO systems under the kitchen sink or near a refrigerator line for filtered ice and water.
Reverse osmosis can be a smart add-on for homes with high water consumption, young children, or anyone who wants the cleanest drinking water available. Our team can explain the pros and cons during your install consultation and help you decide what’s right for your home.
Whether you’re starting fresh with a new system or upgrading an older one that no longer performs well, Alpha Plumbing is here to make sure your water is clean, clear, and dependable from every faucet in the house.
