Filter or Softener
 

Dermatologist recommended a softener for ongoing eczema condition although you say the Villages water is not hard. Something in the water is causing residue on fixtures and itchy burning skin after showers. Not sure what we need to get. Advise please???

The water here is not hard in the normal sense, a scale of 1-15 is usually used our water is about 8.6, so it is just a little hard.
normally hard water is a level of 10-11 or higher.

But if your doctor is recommending a softener fine we have a great unit.
Ask if the eczema condition is affected by chlorine?

To try and save money, you can try the whole house filter first, if not satisfied with the results as to hardness and other improvements we can add the softener.

Ok the residue is mostly sediment an a bit of calcium. In TV we find very high levels of sediment.

The Nova filter removes all the sediment and reduces spotting.

We are very familiar with the reports of itchy skin, it's the high levels of chlorine.

Again our filter removes all chlorine plus 110 other elements we have independent lab tests to back this up

Please call for more details

We didn't need one
 

Hi,
We have the NOVA standard filtration system, had it for three years and we don't have any problems with hardness or calcification! 👍👍

When we moved in the water here (without filter) smelled like the local pool. The filter removed all that.

We don't have a water filtration . Does the salt used affect the water?

Nova's filtration system doesn't use salt. A water softener will use salt though.

Grace, here's a pic of the filters after 26,000 gallons of use.

this is only what can be seen there is a lot more removed than meets the eye.

Love my NOVA system. I am a country boy and have total dislike for city water taste and smell. I also use a Purewash system on my washer. Sediment would affect the system until I installed NOVA.

we would like to thanks to you for providing us this high-quality reverse osmosis system.
everyone should buy reverse osmosis filter

On the advice of someone who had the system over a year, i went with the whole house 3 filter system and i couldn't be happier! The main benefit i noticed right away was NO SPOTS on the shower doors. Hallelujah no more Squeegeeing of the see thru glass doors everytime i take a shower!! I following the instructions and ran the water thru the system as instructed i.e. faucets, dish and clothes washers and hot water to use all the old hot water in the tank. I am very pleased with the results. I highly recommend this system!

Thank you for your recomendation

More than 100,000 cancer cases could be caused by contaminants in tap water, study finds

A toxic cocktail of chemicals found in U.S. drinking water could be the cause of more than 100,000 cases of cancer, a new study by the nonprofit Environmental Working Group (EWG) found.

“The vast majority of community water systems meet legal standards,” said Olga Naidenko, Ph.D., EWG’s vice president for science investigations, in a press release.“Yet the latest research shows that contaminants present in the water at those concentrations – perfectly legal – can still harm human health.”

The study, published in the research journal Heliyon, conducted an assessment of 22 carcinogenic contaminants which meet national drinking water standards and found that a majority of the risk is due to arsenic, disinfection byproducts and radioactive contaminants. Overall, tap water exposure to the carcinogens studied leads to 105,887 cases of cancer in the U.S. over a statistical lifetime, or 70 years. This is the equivalent of four cancer cases per 10,000 people.

MOSAIC DISCOVERED IN ISRAELI 'BURNT CHURCH' MAY DEPICT JESUS' MIRACLE OF THE LOAVES AND FISHES

Luckily, use of a water filter decreases the risk of exposure to these contaminants.

Cancer risk assessments are standard for air quality evaluations under the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the study is the first of its kind to perform a comprehensive cancer risk assessment of drinking water pollutants.

“Drinking water contains complex mixtures of contaminants, yet government agencies currently assess the health hazards of tap water pollutants one by one,” said Sydney Evans, science analyst and lead author of the paper, in a press release. “In the real world, people are exposed to combinations of chemicals, so it is important that we start to assess health impacts by looking at the combined effects of multiple pollutants.”

The study analyzed water quality profiles for 48,363 community water systems, which provide water for around 86 percent of U.S. homes. The other 14 percent rely on private wells for drinking water.

The study found that the risk is higher in the western part of the country, due to water scarcities faced there. “Drier conditions decrease water availability from surface water sources, concentrate contaminants in the existing water sources, and prompt communities to use groundwater resources even in areas where underlying aquifers may have higher levels of arsenic or radioactive chemicals,” it found. It also found that those who rely on public water sources in smaller communities are more at risk than in larger ones.

The study reiterated that most of the water they tested was in compliance with national drinking water standards. E.P.A. data show that only 4.5 percent to 5.5 percent of community water systems had serious violations from 2014 to 2017.

“We need to prioritize source water protection, to make sure that these contaminants don’t get into the drinking water supplies to begin with,” Naidenko concluded.

:eclipsee_gold_cup: Other than moving to The Villages The NOVA Filtration System would be the next best purchase that we have made. Fantastic. Getting ready for our first Filter Change. Great Product and Great People to deal with. :eclipsee_gold_cup:

I deleted my original post because it was my error. There's no problem with my Nova system at all. I was simply mistaken. My apologies to anyone who was misled by my post.

PM sent

We'll check for you

I need to know how to use the water filter (nova H2O)
I am not interested in buying products. I have no money

NOVA is a no salt system

we had the NOVA system put in 3+ years ago, as did 2 cousins that also moved into
TV. We are all happy with it.

FYI, Nova Filters due to raw materiel supply costs rising we will be increasing the cost (after 4 years) of the filters on August 15th.
However, we'll honor the current prices if ordered beforehand and installed at a later date.

Hi, I have lost Brad's cell phone #, and we need to have our filters changed. Can you please give me his number?

Not sure if this is it but it's what I have in my phone. 352-661-0997

Does the Nova system eliminate the calcium deposit....white droplet stains on glass (and crusty white build up)?

The filter will reduce the spotting cause by sediment, which is most of reason for crusty spots.
But to remove calcium or the remaining part of spots you need a water softener.

If you're not sure try the whole house filter, we can add the softener at a later date.

Please be mindful we have the only filter that removes "micro plastics" in the water.


Benefits of Filtered Water

Sediment in the water
https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-aabq...rty-filter.jpg

Microplastics has been found in tap water across the world, including the United States. In fact, the US has some of the highest rates of microplastics in drinking water of any country in the world. These plastics can do untold damage to your health and the health of your family. Consumption of microplastics can even lead to a number of devastating diseases, including cancer.
Current standard water treatment systems do not filter out all of the microplastics, In terms of fibres, the diameter of the fibers is greater than 10 microns across and The Nova Filter surpasses that desired level of filtration suggested by these scientists

Remove hard water build-up on showerheads & faucets
 

Hard water and the backsplash of soap when you're washing your hair can easily clog up your showerhead and faucets over time. If you can't remember the last time you cleaned it, or you've noticed your flow hasn't been as strong as it once was, now is a great time to give it a good soak and possibly even a scrub. You'll need CLR or vinegar, baking soda, a quart or gallon-sized food baggie, and some rubber bands.

A showerhead or faucet cleaning trick to make this process super-easy and less messy, but your main goal is to get a bag of solution strapped onto your shower nozzle. We find CLR works best but combining 1/2 cup of baking soda with 1 cup of white vinegar.Then add in 1 cup of water and strap the bag over the nozzle using rubber bands to hold it on, making sure the nozzle head is completely submerged in the mixture. Let it soak for 10 minutes with CLR or four hours with vinegar & baking soda, then run the water a few minutes and a good wipe down with a washcloth.

In the alternative a Nova Water softener will solve the issue

I feel ripped off.
 

First $191 to change filters. Then $60 more to change out cracked filter casing because of high water pressure, and then another $100 to install high pressure water flow meter. Service charge not broken down but a whole 10 minutes to change filters. Stick it to your fellow villagers.

Noticed a "For Lease" sign at your location. Are you moving, or hoping to share your space?

Joe, not sure why you posted here before contacting us.

A filter change is $139, however you asked for a double Carbon, that cost $40 more, or $179+tax so no one ripped you off it was what you wanted.

Our tech took the time to inspec the system and noticed an stress marks and you requested a new canister. this is a 5year old system

The fact that he was there 15-20 minutes is because he's one of our very experienced techs


In your area with high water pressure and water hammering our tech recommended the pressure regulator to avoid issues in the future but you declined.
Shop around for a pressure regulator valve $100 is a very reasonable price.

Nova has almost 20,000 homes in TV with this system.
