Above EWG health guidelines
EWG health guidelines are not enforceable drinking-water limits. A detection or guideline exceedance does not, by itself, establish a legal violation or the quality of water at your tap.
Utility-level averages as presented by EWG; sampling windows vary by contaminant. Not a current household water test.
ppb = parts per billion; ppm = parts per million; ppt = parts per trillion. “No legal limit” means none is listed for that individual contaminant in this EWG report; group limits may still apply. It does not mean the contaminant is harmless. Limits shown reflect EWG’s report and may not reflect subsequent regulatory changes.
Both utility reports note compliance with federal health-based standards for April–June 2024; this is not a statement about current compliance. Counts include overlapping contaminant groups.

Pick what you've noticed. We'll point you toward categories that may be worth exploring — not a diagnosis.
May be worth exploring
White spots and crusty scale are often associated with hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium. A softener may be worth exploring — a hardness test helps confirm it.
Continue to the solution finderEducational only. Appearance, taste, and odor can't confirm what's in your water — testing can.
Follow the water
Treatment can sit where water enters your home or right at the kitchen tap. Tap a point to see what typically happens there.
Softeners and whole-home filters usually sit near the main line, before the water heater, so treated water reaches every fixture. Not every home needs one.
Performance depends on system selection, installation, maintenance, and your specific water conditions.
Explore treatment at the point where water enters your home.

Our approach
Start with your water source, household needs, and the concerns you've noticed.
Compare relevant options and understand what each system is designed to do.
Discuss installation requirements, maintenance, and the next steps for your home.
| System | Main purpose | Typical location | Questions to ask before choosing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Whole-home filtration | Treat specific concerns for all water entering the home. | Near the main line | What exactly do I want to reduce? What flow does my home need? |
| Water softening | Reduce hardness minerals linked to scale and spotting. | Near the main line, before the water heater | How hard is my water? Do I have space and a drain? |
| Reverse osmosis | Dedicated treated water for drinking and cooking. | Under the kitchen sink | Which reductions are documented? Do I want a fridge connection? |
| Carbon filtration | Address certain taste and odor concerns. | One tap or whole home | Where do I notice it? Does my utility use chlorine or chloramine? |
Categories overlap, and some homes use more than one system. No single option is right for every household.
Tell us your city or ZIP code so we can confirm service availability.
Whole-home filtration and softening starts at $2,999 installed. Dual-tank city systems are $3,999; salt-free and dual-tank well systems are $4,499; iron and sulfur treatment is $5,999. Standalone tank RO is $799 and HW800 AlkaPro tankless RO is $999. Prices are in US dollars for standard installations; confirm the final configuration and price during your consultation.
Every whole-home package includes a traditional tank reverse osmosis drinking-water system, professional installation and a system walkthrough. Upgrade the included RO to the HW800 AlkaPro tankless model for $200.
Systems come with a lifetime warranty, with system-specific written terms provided during consultation. We also beat lower written quotes for comparable equipment and professional installation. Submit the quote before installation is scheduled; eligible best-price customers receive priority booking.
Yes. We believe everyone deserves access to cleaner water, so we keep pricing transparent and offer financing options to help make it affordable. Ask about available financing during your free phone consultation, and confirm the applicable terms before choosing financing.
A softener reduces hardness minerals through ion exchange, mainly to limit scale and spotting. A filter uses media such as carbon or sediment cartridges to address other concerns like taste, odor, or particles. They do different jobs.
Yes. Many homes use more than one system — for example, a softener for the whole house and a drinking-water system at the kitchen sink. Whether you need both depends on your water and goals.
Start with what you want to change and what's in your water. Then compare options by the reductions they're documented to achieve, the space under your sink, and ongoing filter replacement.
Start with a current test from an accredited laboratory. The Minnesota Department of Health publishes guidance for private well owners. Treatment planning follows the results.
It varies. Under-sink systems fit in a standard cabinet; whole-home equipment and softeners need floor space near the main line, plus room for service and, often, a drain.
Most systems need some upkeep — filter or media replacement, salt for softeners, or periodic checks. Intervals depend on the system, your water, and how much you use.
Published prices cover standard installations. Plumbing changes, drain and electrical access, extra treatment stages and the available space can affect the final scope. Well-water configurations depend on test results. Confirm your final price at consultation.
