Chlorine and Chloramine: Clean but Harsh

Treatment facilities add disinfectants like chlorine and chloramine to kill bacteria and viruses. That’s a good thing... until those chemicals make it all the way to your kitchen sink. This is because chlorine and chloramine can:

• Have your water smelling like a public pool
• Dry out your skin and hair
• Deteriorate rubber gaskets and seals in your plumbing
• Affect the taste of food and beverages

A carbon water filtration installation is designed to neutralize these disinfectants. The result? Water that tastes, smells, and feels better

Sediment and Rust: The Grit You Can’t Always See

If your water has a slightly gritty texture, looks cloudy, or leaves residue at the bottom of your glass, then sediment could be the culprit. Sediment includes dirt, sand, silt, and rust particles. This debris can clog aerators, wear down appliances, and scratch glassware and dishware.

Mr. Rooter Plumbing does have filtration solutions to tackle sediment and rust in particular, but this is generally a feature in many advanced filtration systems anyway.

Hard Minerals: The Unseen Plumbing Killer

Hard water contains high levels of calcium and magnesium which leave behind stubborn mineral deposits, and Texas is notorious for hard water; Cedar Hill is no exception. These minerals cause white chalky buildup, soap scum, inefficient water heaters and appliances, dry skin, stiff laundry, and spotty dishes. This list goes on.

A water softener installation swaps out these minerals with harmless sodium or potassium ions. This simple exchange helps protect your plumbing and appliances while simultaneously giving you noticeably softer water throughout your home or business.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): Invisible, But Risky

VOCs are chemicals found in industrial waste, agricultural runoff, and even household cleaners. they can pose serious long-term health concerns, so make sure your water supply is free of it. Periodic water quality testing is worth the investment.

While you can’t see or taste VOCs, activated carbon filtration can effectively remove them. Whether you're washing vegetables, filling a pet bowl, or drinking what seems like clear drinking water, it pays to know your water is free of VOCs.

Lead and Heavy Metals: Legacy Problems in Modern Pipes

Though Cedar Hill’s water system doesn’t intentionally introduce heavy metals like lead, water can absorb them from old plumbing infrastructure. The federal government banned the use of leaded pipe and solder in new plumbing systems in 1986, but many remaining pipe networks still contain them.
