As we’ve discussed before on this blog, a lot of towns and cities unfortunately do not keep their citizens’ drinking water as clean as they should. Even those areas that do have pretty good water filtration systems will never be able to completely get rid of all contaminants in the water supply. If you want to add an extra layer of protection to your plumbing system, and make sure that your exposure to harmful contaminants is minimal, then we recommend installing a HALO water filter. 
Water filtration is a tricky subject, more so than it really should be. In an ideal world, the city in which you live would be able to filter out any and all waterborne contaminants that could harm you before they reach your plumbing system. Unfortunately, that’s not the case. The effectiveness of water filtration varies wildly depending on where you live. Even if you live in a really good area for water quality, the municipal water treatment plant will not be able to completely take care of all the potentially harmful issues in the water supply. If you want to be completely certain of the quality of your water, the best thing to do is install a water filtration system in your home. Let’s go over why you might want a water filter in your home, and the different kinds of water filters available. 
As you probably know, city water treatment can be quite a bit less effective than it should be. Depending on where you live, your water might be mostly safe or barely potable. Regardless, though, you should know that your city’s water treatment will never be perfect. There will always be trace elements of contaminants of various kinds that make it through the purification process and into your home. Some of these contaminants are just minor inconveniences. Others can be major health threats. Regardless, you’ll be much better off in the long run if you take extra steps to address them. If you’re not sure whether or not you need to install a water treatment system in your home, consider the signs below that you need a new water treatment system. 
Water quality has been in and out of national headlines for a few years, now. One thing that’s come as a bit of a surprise to people in certain parts of the country is that city water treatment facilities are not as perfect as we’d like them to be. They may do a great job or a terrible job, depending on where you live, but they’ll never be perfect. There is always a chance that some kind of waterborne contaminant will make it into your home’s plumbing system, and that’s a scary thought. Fortunately, there are a wide range of different water treatment system options available to homeowners. Have a look below at what water treatment systems can help keep your home’s water supply clear. 
Air conditioners are much more prone to developing problems during the summer, when demand on them is highest. Many people schedule preventive maintenance for their air conditioning systems during the summer season, which lowers the odds of problems developing significantly. However, that cannot guarantee that the system will make it through the summer without developing issues. Whether you have your air conditioner checked before summer or not, you should keep an eye out for warning signs that your air conditioner is in trouble. Let’s go over some of those signs below. 
We may be experiencing a bit of gloom now, but warm weather will be back before you know it. Over the next few months, you’re going to be putting a lot of strain on your air conditioner as you run it multiple hours a day to keep your home cool. All that added strain makes it more likely for the system to develop problems over time. If you want to keep your air conditioner from malfunctioning on you in the middle of summer, when you need it the most, there are a couple of things you can do. 
Your water heater can last many years with proper care and maintenance. No matter how well you look after it, though, you can’t expect it to last forever. Sooner or later, you’re going to need to replace your water heater. It can be difficult to tell when exactly the right time to replace your water heater is. If you take a look at the symptoms below, though, you will be able to tell much more easily when it’s time for a new system.
