Whole House Water Filtration Systems
I am looking for the best whole house water filtration system. Has anyone had one installed recently? How do you rate it?
|
You probably won’t need anything, in my opinion.

I think water softners and filters are very much oversold in The Villages. I'm satisfied with the plain tap water.

The day we bought our house we had Nova come and install a whole house filter. $600 and worth it. I had read about how bad the Florida water was and coming from an area that had awesome water I wanted this done. If not for the filter I would be 100% water bottles but with the filter the water is great.

The water in Florida is NASTY! The first thing we're going to do after Tim Miller epoxies our floor is have Nova come out and install a whole house filter system.
|
Puronics. I rate it a 10. Crystal clear water like from a mountain spring. . No more funny taste. I highly recommend it.
|
Nova system. Inexpensive and the water no longer has any smell and is crystal clear. Highly recommended.
|
Granted, I installed a NOVA and have not tried any other than a brita or the refrigerator ones so cannot compare. I think the water here is fine without but did not like the taste and am happy I did it. There is some hardness in the water but not enough to make me put in a water softener, which takes up a lot of room in the garage.

Like a number of other post we got a Nova system. We bought a turnkey property in 2016 and it had a carbon based filter. The Nova system has been a much better system. It cost around $130 per year for the filters to be changed.

I have a salt system..It is great.
|
I know the thread is about filtration but I assume they'll try to sell you a water softener as well. It's supposed to help prevent pipe damage, but I don't like the feel of it on the skin, never feel like I'm fully rinsed with that.

Hone Depot or Lowe's has everything you will ever need! These guys that sell elaborate filtration systems are just taking your hard earned money! Learn to change the filter yourself.. it's EASY

Not cheap but can negotiate price. Water is best and lifetime filter media. |
I have a Nova System for 3 years now. Very happy with it. Didn't like the taste and smell of the unfiltered water. Just know, it is not a water softner, but a filter system. We still are snowbirding it so we change our filters about every 18 months, which works out fine for us. Do not need a filter in the refrigerator since it is a whole house filter. Without it, water for us was hard to enjoy.

I had significant amounts of lime depositing on the showerheads. It was a white crystalline build-up that I had to clean often. Installed Nova system and now rarely see any build-up.
|
I had the Pegasus system put in my house when I moved in 5 years ago and so did many of my friends. Great system basically no maintenance they are wonderful people to deal with and my water tastes great and good on washing and hair
|
We had this system professionally installed with a bypass for $80 labor.
I change the filters every 10 Mos. We use about 3500 gallons a month. No more chlorine smell in the shower. https://www.amazon.com/Express-Water...765106&sr=8-11 |
Whirlpool ... automatic cleaning itself every 14 days ... cost of only around $500 ... easy installation by plumber ... cleans out all the chlorine etc.

Purtronics is the best system out there water is crystal clear and tastes like spring water my facets are always clean no white build up on them from lime. I love that my skin feels super soft after my shower It is a personal choice but you will never regret this system. Call Robert tell him Dawn Allen sent you. He is the owner and will take great care of you.

that is a scare tactic from unscrupulous sellers At Nova we tell you the truth. The feeling of not being rinsed off is improper setting on a softener and using salt rather than potassium Call us for the correct info please Bob & Brad 352.566.2649 |

And it cost how much? |
By the look of the posts water quality must vary wildly across The Villages. Our water is crystal clear and has no off-taste or odors. There is never any staining or calcium build-up where water is used. Before investing in a filtration system that will require ongoing maintenance and cost I would request a water quality report from your provider and do your own “sniff” test. Unless of course you have money to burn on redundant systems and want to keep up with the Jones’.

Pegasus Water
I called them all (locally) and we settled on Pegasus. We drink this unhealthy and horrible water right out of the tap now! (Not to mention washing clothing and taking baths) I recommend them 110% and worth spending a little more money. Good luck with your search and Happy New Year

There is no shortage of confusion and misinformation. Like any other product few people will say I fell for a sales presentation and it was a mistake.
We have hard water. The reason is our source. Our soils are loaded with limestone. There is a difference between a water filter and a water softener. Hard water makes laundry detergents work not as well. Simple solution is to add Borax with your wash. For all cooking and drinking we used the filtered water from the refrigerator. They need to be regularly replaced. Caution, there are like too many other things Chinese knock offs. It is hard to tell the difference. I read somewhere you can tell by weighing them. For snow birds. Bacteria does grow in the stagnant water in any water filter. I would change them when you arrive. Water is actually an important health issue. Read, beware of the motive of the person the company giving you the information. Perhaps, for many, including me, it is this is what I decided-right or wrong????????? |

To the subject the water to your home depends on many things the quality of the water supplied as well as where your home is on the supply line. More old history. As a summer job around High School I worked in a machine shop. One of the products I worked on was making faucets out of monel an expensive hard on tools stainless steel. They were used down south. Besides the cost, our plumbing is all plastic. Our water will quickly destroy brass or copper. No I am not. was not, a machinist a slightly more than minimum wage machine watcher |
