Water Filtration

Want The Cleanest Drinking Water?  We Can Help!

We Install Residential Water Filtration Systems

Water Filtration is now an important part of our daily lives in Ohio. People are now more conscious about what they are putting in their bodies than ever before.  Everybody wants the cleanest water possible for their family and because of this trend, water filtration systems have become a very popular plumbing upgrade for Ohio home owners. Whether you are on a private well or you depend on the municipal water supply the benefits of a water filtration system far outweigh not having one at all.

If great tasting, healthy, fresh water is important to you 1st Choice Plumbing and Drain can help you select and install the water filtration system that’s right for your home and your intended use.

We proudly serve clients in Parma, Cleveland, North Royalton, Strongsville, Broadview Heights, Brecksville, Hinckley, Richfield, and surrounding areas.  We provide prompt and reliable water filtration system installations to restore the quality of your drinking water.  Whether you want a whole house system or or a specific point-of-use, we can help.

The filtration system you need to install largely depends on how much water you plan on using (they all have certain capacities) how many bathrooms you have in your home, and also what types of impurities need to be removed from the water (the most important).

The only way to determine what’s in your water is to have an accurate water potability test done on your water. If you don’t know how or where to get this done we can help you.  There are many certified laboratories in our area.

One thing is certain, no matter which water filtration system you decide to go with, do have a professional come and install it for you.

Many of the water filtration systems you buy from the stores (and many we as plumbers get) come with poor quality fittings, and any skilled plumber can quickly spot these costly parts and replace them with something better. We say “costly” because those inferior fittings are just that! They are poor quality and prone to failure. In the event your water filtration system fails due to poor plumbing it could be disastrous in your home. Have you ever had to replace a laminate or hardwood floor that was soaked with water?

A good quality professional installation from the team at 1st Choice Plumbing and Drain will make sure you avoid any of these costly mistakes and we’ll even back our work with a full 12 month (1 year) warranty on all parts and labor.

Water Filtration System Installation Under Kitchen Sink.

Should You Install A Whole Home Or Point-Of-Use Water Filtration System?

Choosing between a whole home and a point-of-use water filtration system depends on your specific water quality needs and usage.

Whole Home Water Filtration Systems:
These systems filter water at the point where it enters your home, ensuring that every tap in your house dispenses clean, filtered water. They are ideal for families concerned about overall water quality affecting health, skin, and appliances. Whole home systems typically include different stages of filtration, such as sediment filters, carbon filters, and sometimes water softeners or UV purification, to remove a wide range of contaminants including chlorine, sediment, heavy metals, and bacteria.

Point-Of-Use Water Filtration Systems:
Point-of-use systems are installed at specific locations, such as under the kitchen sink, on a countertop, or attached to a showerhead. They provide targeted filtration where you need it most. Common types include faucet filters, countertop filters, under-sink filters, and refrigerator water filters. These systems are more affordable and easier to install compared to whole home systems. They typically use carbon filters or reverse osmosis to remove contaminants like chlorine, lead, and other impurities from drinking water.

Differences Between the Systems:

Coverage: Whole home systems filter water for the entire house, while point-of-use systems target specific areas.

Installation: Whole home systems require professional installation and regular maintenance. Point-of-use systems are often DIY-friendly.

Cost: Whole home systems are more expensive upfront but provide comprehensive coverage. Point-of-use systems are less costly and can be installed gradually.

Filtration Needs: Whole home systems address a broader range of contaminants and provide overall water quality improvement. Point-of-use systems focus on specific contaminants at designated points.

Considerations for Choosing:

Budget: Consider initial costs, installation fees, and maintenance expenses.

Water Quality Issues: Identify specific contaminants or general water quality concerns in your area.

Usage: Determine if you need filtered water throughout your home or only in certain areas.

For personalized advice and professional installation, contact 1st Choice Plumbing & Drain. We’ll help you determine the best water filtration solution for your home, ensuring clean and safe water for you and your family.

Do You Have Questions About Water Filtration Systems?

A whole home system filters all the water entering your home, ensuring every tap dispenses clean, filtered water. It typically includes multiple filtration stages to remove various contaminants.

Point-of-use systems are installed at specific locations, such as under the kitchen sink or on a showerhead, to filter water at those points only. They are ideal for targeting specific water quality issues.

Consider your budget, specific water quality concerns, and whether you need filtered water throughout your entire home or only in certain areas.

Filtration systems can remove chlorine, sediment, heavy metals, bacteria, lead, pesticides, and other impurities, depending on the type and stages of filtration used.

Filter replacement frequency depends on the system and water usage. Generally, filters should be replaced every 3 to 12 months. Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations.

Yes, many filtration systems improve water taste and odor by removing chlorine, sediment, and other contaminants that affect water quality.

If you have hard water, you may benefit from a water softener to remove minerals like calcium and magnesium, which can cause scale buildup and affect appliance performance.

Thank god for first choice plumbing!! Dan was so easy to work with. My mom found him through Facebook because of an outside spicket that needed replaced and he ended up fixing some plumbing with her bathroom too. His prices were fair, he got the job done fast, and he was trustworthy. Fast forward to my house. We bought a house in Jan 23' and we inherited a slew of plumbing issues. So far Dan has installed a new hot water tank, made our kitchen sink functional, and installed a new spicket and pipes for our hose outside. I've worked with other plumbers, and before I worked with first choice plumbing I thought they were all the same. This company is amazing- polite, honest, and knowledgeable. 100/10, thank you for everything!!

This guy is amazing! Truly an honest business, and I am glad to have my work serviced by this company. I needed a pressure valve regulator on my main water supply and thermal expansion tank replaced. I was offered a very fair and competitive price for the job, and couldn't be happier with the results! No more banging when using hot water or major appliances, and my pressure was reduced from 120 to 55-65 PSI. Its been weeks now, and there has been no leaks, and no signs of increased water pressure. Very polite, honest, and just a low-stress process. Thank you!!!

Dan installed numerous pieces of hardware for us in our newly purchased house, including faucets, shower heads, drain covers; a hot water recirculating pump system; and a new garbage disposal. In every case, his installation job was as solid as an Abrams tank. I have no doubt that if a tornado, God forbid, flattened our house, the parts that Dan installed would still be standing. Dan's prices are reasonable -- he charges by the job, not by the hour -- and he appeared on time every time. Highly recommended!

First Choice came recommended to me, and I am so pleased with the service I received. Dan came out, quoted me a price, and spent quite a bit of time on my property - much longer than I think he was planning to due to no fault of his - the job was just left for too long and proved to be bigger than expected. He was professional and kind, he took me along through the entire process and showed me what he was finding and explained what he was seeing, and I learned a great deal from him. His price was more than fair, and he gave me some tips to keep this issue from creeping up again anytime soon. Thank you, Dan! I will definitely call you again for any plumbing issues I may face!

My hat's off to Dan and 1st Choice Plumbing. We had a clogged kitchen drain that Dan was able to fix quickly and efficiently. More importantly to me, was Dan's candor and professionalism. He was always upfront with me about what needed to be done, how he was going to do it and he never said he was going to do something he didn't do or follow through with. That may sound like it's expected, but in today's day and age, it's just something I've come to appreciate. Call me old-fashioned. Anyway, I'd highly recommend Dan and 1st Choice Plumbing without reservation, if you ever need a good and reliable plumber. Thanks Dan!

I have hired Dan twice for four different plumbing jobs at my house: install a new sink, snake drain, update kitchen piping and basement plumbing to outside, and install water pressure valve and hot water tank bladder. Dan arrived on time, with all parts needed to do the jobs, answered any and all questions I had, checked all work for function and leaks, and cleaned up everything. The prices were great and he said that if I had any problems to call him and he would fix them. Before starting the job with the basement plumbing, he checked with me regarding moving the discharge pipe, making sure that I was fine with blocking a glass block window. I assured him that I had no problem with that as I wasn't going to "use" the window. Dan is a very personable man and meticulous plumber and I would recommend him to anyone I know. If he performs more than one job, he gives a 20% discount on the second job, saving quite a bit of money (in my case, anyhow). Good help is hard to find and I am very glad I found Dan. He came highly recommended from a friend of mine (prior customer) and I can see why.
