We’ve been solving water quality problems for Shelbyville area families who are tired of dealing with bad-tasting, smelly, or discolored water. We don’t guess what’s wrong with your water – we test it.

Well Water Filter Systems

Complete Water Treatment Solutions

We handle everything from basic drinking water filters to comprehensive whole-house water treatment systems. Point-of-use systems for kitchen sinks when you just want better drinking water. Whole-house filtration when you want clean water from every tap.

For Shelbyville’s common iron water problems, we install specialized iron removal systems that eliminate the rust stains and metallic taste. Hard water issues get addressed with water softening systems that protect your appliances and make cleaning easier.

Well water customers often need multi-stage treatment combining sediment filtration, iron removal, and disinfection. City water customers typically focus on chlorine removal and taste improvement. Every system gets customized based on your actual water test results, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

How do I know what type of water filter system I need?

The only way to know for sure is through proper water testing. We test for common contaminants like iron, hardness, bacteria, chlorine, and pH levels. Many people assume they know what’s wrong with their water based on taste or appearance, but testing often reveals multiple issues that need to be addressed. For example, you might notice iron staining but also have hard water that’s damaging your appliances. We provide comprehensive testing so you get a system that solves all your water problems, not just the obvious ones.
Point-of-use systems treat water at a single location, like an under-sink filter for your kitchen. These work well if you only want better drinking and cooking water. Whole-house systems treat all the water entering your home, so every tap, shower, and appliance gets filtered water. If you have iron staining, hard water, or other issues affecting your entire home, a whole-house system makes more sense. We’ll help you determine which approach fits your specific situation and budget.
It depends on your water quality and system type, but most filters need replacement every 6-12 months. Carbon filters for taste and odor typically last 6-9 months. Iron removal systems might need media replacement annually. We provide maintenance schedules specific to your system and water conditions. Regular maintenance isn’t just about filter changes – we also check system performance, clean components, and test your treated water to make sure everything is working properly. Skipping maintenance usually means your system stops working effectively, and you’re back to dealing with the original water problems.
Yes, but you need the right type of system. Basic carbon filters won’t remove bacteria – you need UV sterilization or other disinfection methods. If your well water tests positive for bacteria, we’ll recommend a multi-stage system that includes sediment filtration, carbon treatment for taste and odor, and UV sterilization to eliminate harmful microorganisms. Many well water systems in the Shelbyville area benefit from this comprehensive approach because untreated well water can contain both aesthetic issues like iron and health concerns like bacteria.
Not necessarily. Standard water softeners can handle small amounts of dissolved iron, but if you have significant iron staining, you need dedicated iron removal equipment. Many homes in our area have both hard water and iron issues, which requires a two-stage approach – iron removal first, then water softening. Trying to use a water softener alone for iron problems usually results in poor performance and frequent maintenance issues. We test your water to determine iron levels and recommend the right combination of treatment methods.
Costs vary significantly based on what you need to treat and the type of system required. Basic under-sink drinking water filters start around a few hundred dollars. Whole-house systems for iron removal or comprehensive well water treatment can range from $1,500 to $4,000 or more, depending on complexity. The key is getting a system sized and designed for your specific water problems – oversizing costs more upfront, while undersizing means the system won’t solve your problems. We provide upfront pricing after testing your water, so you know exactly what you’re investing in before any work begins.
