Water Filtration & Treatment Services

Clean, Safe Water for Your Home and Family

Your family deserves clean, safe water from every tap in your home. If you've noticed strange tastes, odd smells, or staining on fixtures, it might be time for a water filtration system. At Macaw Plumbing & Tankless, we help homeowners in Concord, Kannapolis, Salisbury, Mooresville, and surrounding communities protect their families with reliable water treatment solutions that remove contaminants, soften hard water, and improve the quality of water throughout your home.

We're not just installing equipment—we're giving you peace of mind that what your family drinks, cooks with, and bathes in is clean and safe.

Common Signs You May Need a Water Filtration System

Many North Carolina homeowners deal with water quality issues without even realizing there's a solution. Here are signs that a water treatment system could help:

• Strange taste or smell — metallic, chlorine, or sulfur odors in your drinking water
• Hard water buildup — white scale on faucets, showerheads, or inside appliances like Tankless water heaters
• Staining — rust-colored stains in sinks, tubs, or on laundry
• Dry skin and hair — hard water can leave a film that makes soap less effective
• Cloudy or discolored water — sediment or cloudiness coming from your taps
• Frequent appliance repairs — hard water shortens the lifespan of water heaters, dishwashers, and washing machines

If any of these sound familiar, a water filtration or softening system can make a real difference for your home.

Total Water Filtration Services We Offer

At Macaw Plumbing & Tankless, we tailor water treatment solutions to your home's specific needs. Whether you're dealing with hard water, sediment, chlorine, or other contaminants, we'll recommend the right system to protect your family and your plumbing.

Whole-Home Water Filtration Installation

A whole-home filtration system treats water at the point it enters your house, so every tap delivers cleaner, safer water. These systems remove chlorine, sediment, heavy metals, and other contaminants—protecting your family and extending the life of your plumbing and appliances.

Benefits:

• Clean water from every faucet and showerhead
• Protects appliances from sediment and mineral buildup
• Reduces exposure to contaminants in drinking and bathing water

Water Softener Installation

Hard water is common in North Carolina and can cause buildup in pipes, water heaters, and fixtures. A water softener removes the minerals (calcium and magnesium) that cause hardness, preventing scale buildup and improving the feel of your water.

Benefits:

• Softer skin and hair after showers
• Less soap scum and residue on dishes and fixtures
• Extends the lifespan of water heaters and appliances
• Saves money on energy bills by preventing scale buildup in your water heater

Reverse Osmosis Systems

For the cleanest drinking water possible, a reverse osmosis (RO) system is the gold standard. Installed under your kitchen sink, an RO system removes up to 99% of contaminants—including lead, fluoride, arsenic, and bacteria—giving you pure, great-tasting water straight from the tap.

Benefits:

• Removes harmful contaminants other systems can't catch
• Improves taste and clarity of drinking water
• Convenient—no more buying bottled water
• Compact installation under the sink

Water Quality Testing

Not sure what's in your water? We offer professional water quality testing to identify contaminants, hardness levels, and other issues. Once we know what you're dealing with, we'll recommend the right filtration or treatment solution for your home.

What we test for:

• Hardness (calcium and magnesium levels)
• Chlorine and chloramines
• Heavy metals (lead, iron, copper)
• Bacteria and other biological contaminants
• pH levels and sediment

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of water filtration systems are available?

There are several types of systems depending on your needs: whole-home filtration systems treat all the water entering your house, water softeners remove hardness minerals, reverse osmosis systems provide ultra-pure drinking water, and sediment or carbon filters address specific issues like chlorine or rust. We'll test your water and recommend the best option for your home.

Can a water filtration system improve taste and smell?

Yes. Many water quality issues—like chlorine taste, metallic flavors, or sulfur smells—can be eliminated with the right filtration system. Carbon filters and reverse osmosis systems are especially effective at improving taste and odor.

How often do I need to replace my filter?

It depends on the system. Our systems last between 3-10 years (depending on the system and water quality) while some whole-home filters typically need replacement every 6–12 months, while reverse osmosis filters may last 1–2 years. Water softeners require salt refills but don't need filter changes. We'll explain the maintenance schedule for your system and can handle replacements for you.

How do I know if my water needs to be filtered?

Common signs include bad taste or smell, staining on fixtures or laundry, scale buildup on faucets, dry skin after showers, or cloudy water. If you're unsure, we offer water quality testing to identify exactly what's in your water and recommend the right solution.
