Water Filtration Systems
Why The Need for Water Filtration in Central Florida and Surrounding Communities
Think About It: Our water dates back millions of years to the dinosaurs. Through the centuries, our planet has been merely recycling our water. Thousands of years ago, that was not a problem. However, since the agricultural and industrial revolutions, many natural organic and man-made—or inorganic—chemicals, pesticides, and pharmaceutical contaminants have unfortunately found their way into today’s water supplies.
Specifically, our area’s groundwater is subject to chemical runoff when it rains, which may seep into drinking water supplies. While the municipal water districts around the Palm Coast area do what they can within their budget restrictions, it is becoming increasingly difficult for them to keep up with the increasing demand for cleaner, safer, and healthier water as our region’s population grows.
Because of these municipal water challenges, installing a whole-house water filtration system is more necessary than ever to protect against water-borne invaders, such as dirt, sand, nitrates, heavy metals, chemicals, and hard water minerals, that may be in your water as it enters the home.
The 3 Concerns in Municipal Water in Palm Coast, Florida, and Surrounding Communities
There are 3 Concerns in today’s municipal water that a filtration system must address:
- Physical Contaminants like dirt, silt, sand, and other physical particulates.
- Chemical Contaminants like disinfecting chlorine, chloramines, pesticides and herbicides, nitrates, and heavy metals.
- Hard water minerals like calcium and magnesium.
Most homeowners also don’t realize that these concerns affect their families’ health, the “health” of their very expensive plumbing system, and all the water-using appliances in their homes. Did You Know? Disinfecting chemicals such as chlorine attack and eat away at metal and copper pipes and connections.
Past vs. Present Technology
Previously, the only option for treating these three concerns was primarily a two-tank system—a stand-up carbon filter combined with a softener. These systems are large, inefficient, need programming, and could waste as much as 500 gallons of water every month!
Thanks to the latest technology, ONE system can efficiently and effectively treat all THREE concerns in a compact design without needlessly wasting gallons upon gallons of water every month.
Like any facet of life, technology advances. That’s why Mangano Plumbing Services offers residents of Palm Coast, Florida, and surrounding areas Honest Water Filters to protect their families and expensive plumbing systems. Simply put, the Honest Water Filters are the most advanced whole-house systems on the market today, backed up by NSF performance certifications.
To treat Concerns 1 and 2 (Physical and Chemical Contaminants), these filters offer a 5-micron down to a 0.015 sub-micron filter for physicals and the most chemical-reducing carbon of any system available (more than two times), as illustrated by this chart.
They are also one of the only systems on the market that have been certified by NSF for System Performance…going well beyond basic, standard certifications that most systems promote they have.
Polyphosphates – A Hard Water Solution For Flagler, St. John’s, Volusia and the surrounding Florida communities.
To treat Concern 3 (Minerals – aka hard water), Honest Water Filters systems contain polyphosphates, a proven, all-natural alternative to salt softeners. Unlike other salt-free systems that “mask” hard water problems, polyphosphates have been used in commercial applications for decades in places like 7-11, McDonalds, and most restaurants.
How They Work: Food-grade and FDA-approved, our all-natural polyphosphates sequester hard water minerals such as calcium and magnesium so they cannot scale and corrode plumbing and fixtures in the home. Yet, they leave these “healthy” minerals in the water that our bodies need.
