That pool taste in your coffee and ice is chlorine, the disinfectant this system uses. The staining in tubs and laundry has a cause too, and it is fixable.
What whole-home filtration does for you
  • Coffee, tea, and ice with no pool taste or smell
  • Clean, filtered water from every tap in the house
  • Bottled-quality drinking water straight from your kitchen sink
  • An end to the orange and dark staining in tubs and laundry
  • Cleaner water protecting your appliances and fixtures
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. Iron filtration handles the staining before it reaches your fixtures. 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. That is the disinfectant Pontchatoula Water System (City of Ponchatoula) 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 the aquifer under your feet. The report also shows manganese at the aesthetic limit. That is the orange or dark staining that shows up in tubs, sinks, and laundry over time, and iron filtration is built for exactly that.
