Water Filter Installation Process

Here's What Actually Happens

We start with a free water test at your Franklin home to identify exactly what’s in your water. No guessing, no generic solutions. We test for hardness, chlorine, iron, pH levels, and other common contaminants.

Based on those results, we recommend the right whole house water treatment system for your specific situation. We explain what each component does and why it matters for your water quality.

Installation typically takes 4-6 hours. We connect the system to your main water line so every drop of water entering your home gets filtered. We test everything thoroughly before we leave and show you how the system works.

How much does a whole house water filter cost in Franklin?

The cost depends on your home’s size, water quality issues, and the type of system you need. Basic whole house filters start around $1,500 installed, while comprehensive treatment systems with softening and multiple filtration stages typically range from $3,000 to $6,000. We provide free water testing and give you an exact quote based on your specific situation. Most Franklin homeowners find the investment pays for itself within 2-3 years through reduced appliance repairs, longer appliance life, and eliminated bottled water costs.
A properly sized and installed system shouldn’t noticeably reduce your water pressure. We calculate the right system size based on your home’s flow rate requirements and choose components that maintain adequate pressure throughout your house. Cheap systems or incorrect sizing can definitely cause pressure problems, which is why we do the math upfront and use quality components. In some cases, removing sediment and buildup actually improves pressure compared to what you had before installation.
Most whole house systems need filter changes every 6-12 months, depending on your water usage and quality. We provide maintenance reminders so you don’t have to remember dates. Filter changes are straightforward – most homeowners can handle them, or we can do it for you. The key is staying on schedule because overused filters stop working effectively and can actually make water quality worse. We’ll show you exactly how to check and change filters during installation.
Different systems remove different contaminants, which is why we test your water first. Standard carbon filters handle chlorine, taste, and odor issues well. Adding sediment filters removes particles and rust. For bacteria, heavy metals, or specific contaminants, you might need additional treatment stages. We design systems based on what’s actually in your Franklin water, not what might be there. No single system removes everything, but the right combination of filters can address the specific problems in your water supply.
Installation requires cutting into your main water line, soldering or using compression fittings, and ensuring proper flow rates and pressure. Most homeowners don’t have the tools or experience to do this safely. Mistakes can cause flooding, damage your home’s plumbing, or void equipment warranties. Professional installation also ensures the system is sized correctly and all connections are secure. We handle permits if needed and make sure everything meets local Franklin building codes.
Quality whole house systems typically last 10-15 years with proper maintenance. The main components like tanks and control valves are built to run for decades. You’ll replace filters regularly, but the core system keeps working. Cheaper systems might need replacement in 5-7 years, which is why we focus on quality equipment upfront. Regular maintenance and timely filter changes are the biggest factors in system longevity. We’ve seen well-maintained systems in Franklin homes still running strong after 20 years.
