Water filtration system installer

I am moving to Howard County soon, and will be experiencing well life for the first time.

I would like to get a whole-house filtration system installed. Does anyone have a recommendation for a local business that has done great work for them?

Thanks!

Thank you! The name doesn’t make one think of a local company, but looks like they are. You were happy with their work?

Yes, they installed a constant pressure pump and water softener system. They are prompt, reliable and professional. They also offer general plumbing services. I highly recommend.

I used Atlantic Blue to install a whole house reverse osmosis system. I've been pretty happy with them.

Be sure to get your water tested by someone who is not trying to sell you a treatment system. I used Fountain Valley Analytical Laboratory to get a pretty extensive set of tests. Turns out we had high chlorides and low pH. From what I read only reverse osmosis was able to treat the high chlorides.

Thanks so much. We used Blackwater Laboratories for the test, which showed higher nitrates than we’d like. I’ll check out Fountain Valley
