Common Water Problems and Solutions

Any system that works as long and hard as your plumbing is bound to encounter problems after a while. From hard water to chemicals, there are plenty of contaminants that can enter your system and ruin your clean drinking water. Listed below are some of the most common issues, how to identify them, and how Advanced Water Treatment can help you eliminate them.

Hard Water

Hard water is created when water flows through rock formations and absorbs minerals like calcium and magnesium. Hard water builds up rocky, chalky sediment that can clog pipes and leave behind ring stains. Advanced Water Treatment can treat hard water with reliable and affordable water softeners.

Rusty Water

Rusty orange water can be caused by iron contamination, created when water flows through iron deposits or rusty pipes. In addition to tasting terrible, rusty water can stain clothing and form scale on pipes. Advanced Water Treatment can help you deal with rusty water using reverse osmosis systems.

Chlorinated Water

While chlorine is often used to disinfect water, excessive chlorine can lead to long-term health effects. If you are concerned about chlorine contamination, Advanced Water Treatment can help remove it with a whole-home water filtration system. With this in place, your home will be safe from chlorine and many other contaminants.

Arsenic

Arsenic is a natural element that can contaminate water underground. Arsenic is tasteless and odorless, and drinking arsenic-contaminated water can lead to long-term health effects. Advanced Water Treatment can install point-of-use water filters to help keep your household arsenic-free.

Bacteria

Harmful microorganisms like E. coli can contaminate your water from many different sources. They can give your water a rotten taste and build up slime in toilets and pipes. Advanced Water Treatment can help you remove these dangerous organisms with a simple UV sterilization system that eliminates threats with the power of sunlight.

Sulfer and Methane

Sulfur particles can contaminate water underground, creating water that smells and tastes like rotten eggs. Advanced Water Treatment can help you deal with this irritating infection. We offer professional water testing services that will identify the source of the sulfur and allow us to treat it.

PFAS and Mandmade Chemicals

Toxic “forever chemicals” such as PFAS can leech into water from your environment. These manmade pollutants are difficult to detect without professional testing, which is where Advanced Water Treatment can help. We offer a wide range of water filters that can keep your water healthy and clean.

Other Contaminants

The contaminants listed above are some of the most common issues we work with, but they are far from the only ones. No matter what you are dealing with, the experienced technicians of Advanced Water Treatment are ready to help you.
