Frequently Asked Questions

How expensive are water treatment systems?
A state-of-the-art water treatment system from A Complete Pump & Water Pure will pay for itself. Conditioned water helps your water heater run more efficiently, reducing energy bills. It requires less detergent to wash clothes and it's easy on your pipes, fixtures and water - using appliances. Drinking water produced by a reverse osmosis (RO) filtration system is far more economical than the cheapest bottled water.


Isn't bottled water better than tap water?
Just as tap water can vary by location, the content of bottled water varies by bottler. Some of the highest quality bottled water is produced by reverse osmosis (RO) filtration, which typically reduces impurities by 95 percent or more. Reverse osmosis technology is available for your home through A Complete Pump And Water Pure.


Isn't my municipal water treated?​
Many municipalities treat water with chlorine to kill bacteria. A few even soften water. But their goal is to only meet minimum federal requirements. To eliminate chlorine aftertaste and common water problems, an in-home water treatment system is often necessary.


What are the symptoms of hard water?

If you have hard water,you may see staining on your sinks, tubs, showers and clothing. You may see buildup on your glassware and damage due to scale in your pipes and appliances. You may also notice less lather from your shampoo and dry or dull skin and hair.


What's so bad about hard water?
Hard water can produce a rock-like scale that builds up in pipes, dishwashers, water heaters, ice machines and other appliances. This scale can also reduce water flow and clog valves and vents to create maintenance problems and reduce service life.


How is water softened?
Water is softened or conditioned by replacing hard ions such as magnesium and calcium with softer sodium or potassium ions. Water softeners must be regenerated regularly, renewing their ability to remove hardness from water.


How do I know what I need?
You first need to identify your specific water problem. Are there reddish-brown iron stains in your sink, shower or tub? Does your bathtub have a hard water ring? Does your water look dirty or cloudy? Does it smell sometimes? For these and other common problems, an expert at A Complete Pump & Water Pure can perform a free in-home water test and recommend the perfect solution.


I thought my tax dollars paid for clean, regulated water?
The Environmental Protection Agency sets primary and secondary water regulations. In some cases, water will not meet those standards. And even if it does, it may still taste or smell bad or contain magnesium, calcium or other minerals or dissolved solids, and contains chlorine, ammonia and other added chemicals .
