What is the best water filter system for well water?

If you have well water, a whole home water filter system can remove sediment, bacteria, minerals, and other contaminants before they reach your taps or affect your pipes. A Mr. Rooter service professional can recommend the best system based on water testing and your household’s needs.

Do whole-home water filters remove hard water?

No, most home filtration systems don’t remove minerals like calcium and magnesium that cause hard water. A water softener is a different system that can be added alongside a whole-home filter. Fortunately, hard water is not usually a concern in Boulder and the surrounding communities.

Can a whole-home water filter help with Northern Colorado water quality?

Yes. While Northern Colorado generally has high-quality water, local treatment and old pipes can add chlorine and other contaminants. A whole home water filter treats water at the main line to improve quality throughout your home.

How often should a whole-home water filter be replaced?

Filters inside the system typically need to be replaced every 3 to 6 months. The filter system itself should last for years with regular use. If you replace the filters regularly but still notice poor taste or color, or a water test reveals bacteria, contact Mr. Rooter to assess whether your filter system needs replacement.

Why is my water filter leaking?

Leaks typically start at loose connections or worn seals, but they can also be caused by sustained high water pressure, a cracked housing, or backup caused by a drain clog. If you notice a leak, contact our team to find the source and repair the issue.

Where does the water filter go in my house?

Whole-home water filters are installed wherever the main water line enters your home, often in the basement or garage. Placing it as near to the entry point as possible lets the system filter all water as it enters your home.
