Whole Home Filtration Questions
Albuquerque Bernalillo County Water Utility Authority (ABCWUA) reports the 6-10 GPG figure behind every answer below.
How much does whole home filtration cost?
Actual price range for whole home filtration on top of a standalone softener is [PLACEHOLDER — confirm local price range for whole home filtration], depending on the filtration stage and household plumbing.
What is the best whole home filtration system for hard water?
The best fit is a combo unit sized for your local GPG hardness and rated for the specific contaminants in your water supply — not just a generic best-seller list. Check the manufacturer's capacity and certification specs before buying.
Does whole home filtration remove chlorine and sediment, not just hardness?
Yes. A plain softener removes calcium and magnesium only. A whole-home filtration system adds a carbon-based filtration stage at the same install point to also address taste, odor, and particulates.
Can I add whole home filtration to an existing softener?
Yes, a retrofit is possible, though a single combo unit installed at your home's original point of entry is more common and simpler to maintain than adding a second, separate unit.
