What we'd install

Here is your system: whole-home carbon for the chlorine at every tap, plus reverse osmosis at the kitchen sink for the water you drink, cook with, and freeze. A certified lead-reduction filter goes on the drinking water tap, because of what the public report shows. It is the setup we put in most homes on this water, and it earns its keep every single day.

What this means at your house

Your water arrives with chlorine in it, at 0.7 parts per million. That is the disinfectant Lake Ramsey uses, and it is the taste people notice in coffee, in ice, and in the first glass of the day. Carbon takes it out at every tap in the house.

The water here is groundwater, pumped from Well Lake Ramsay. The published report for this system carries a lead result: one sample tested above the federal action level. We put it on this page because it is in the public record and you should know it is there. Certified lead-reduction filtration at the drinking water tap is the piece that addresses it.
