Whole-House Water Filtration in Dallas–Fort Worth

Whole-house filtration treats water where it enters the home, so every fixture gets filtered water. Point-of-use systems treat one tap and cost far less — which one makes sense depends on what you are actually trying to address.

Start with your city's annual water quality report and, if needed, an independent test. Choose equipment based on those results rather than a generic recommendation.

Symptoms and problems

• • Noticeable taste or odor at every tap
• • Sediment collecting in aerators and fixtures
• • Concerns raised by a water quality report or test
• • An existing filter system past its service interval

Common causes

• • Sediment or particulate in the supply
• • Disinfection byproducts affecting taste and smell
• • Filter media past its capacity

Typical solutions

• • Reviewing test results before selecting equipment
• • Installing a properly sized system with bypass and service valves
• • Setting up a realistic filter change schedule
• • Adding a point-of-use system where whole-house treatment is not needed

When to get professional help

Systems have to be sized for flow rate. Undersized filtration is a common cause of pressure complaints after installation.
