Keeping your families water clean and safe.

Sediment Filters

A few weeks ago the fire department was testing the hydrants in our neighborhood, I didn't think much of this until I turned on the out door faucet.  Dark red Georgia mud gushed from the spigot.  There was so much dirt, that it made me thankful that our indoor faucets were connected to a water filtration system, but it also made me wonder how much dirt had my family and I unknowingly ingested every day before we installed our system.  Water filtration is easy, simple, and an effective way to provide your family with clean and clear drinking water.

Sediment and particulate matter are found within municipal water supplies, despite the best efforts of state and federal governments concerns.  Chlorine or other chemicals are added to the water to help free the water from contaminants, however even the most efficient water treatment plants cannot rid all of the sediment from the water. Therefore, water filtration systems are the best way to protect yourself and your family by removing an average of 99% of all sediment.  A Sediment filter is a fine screen that permits water to pass through, but traps approximately all of the sediment, preventing it from reaching your drinking glass.
  
Filtered water, looks, smells, and tastes better, but it is also better for you. However, you must remember that sediment will build up over time on the filter, and the filter must be replaced at regular intervals to ensure you are receiving the best quality water possible.

The system that I have requires little maintenance, and suggests that the filter be replaced every six months.  However, after having so much dirt in my lines, I decided to replace the filter early, when I went online the customer service representative noticed that I had just replaced the filter and when I explained what had happened, the company replaced my filter for free.  Now that's customer service.
