You fill a small vile with your home\u2019s water and send it to the lab, postage paid. These tests are usually only for hardness, not any contaminants \u2013 though the packaging may not state that. A few weeks after sending in the water sample, you\u2019ll get a call from a local water filtration company seeking to sell you a system. If you want your water thoroughly tested, we suggest you skip this step and go straight to your water department or the local seller of your choice, not Home Depot\u2019s choice.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a useful article on How to Decide What Water Tests to Order.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve surveyed the water filtration system landscape for prices.\u00a0The cost of installation is covered below.<\/p>\n Here are whole house water filter retail costs.<\/p>\n Pro Tip:<\/strong> It\u2019s wise to consider the cost of replacement filters when estimating the cost of a whole house water filter system. How often you change filters depends on the filter\u2019s volume rating, how much water you use and contaminant levels in the water. It\u2019s common to replace filters every month to once a year.<\/p>\n You have quite a few options. Most whole house water filtration systems have multiple filters.<\/p>\n Here are the most common types used in single-filter and combination systems:<\/p>\n In most cases, homeowners have their water tested first and then choose a filtration system designed to remove the contaminants and levels found in their water.<\/p>\n There are water filtration system manufacturers and then there are companies like Culligan and Kinetico that sell you the whole package with installation.<\/p>\n This list is of manufacturers. You buy the system and then DIY or call a pro for the install.<\/p>\n These filtration systems are designed to be easily installed by a professional in a few hours.<\/p>\n The biggest hurdle to DIY is soldering the fittings for a secure connection, as shown in a This Old House video.<\/p>\n Watch the video, and if you have the skills demonstrated or really want to pick them up, give it a shot. Otherwise, pro installation is an affordable option, and that\u2019s our recommendation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/main><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" $1,400 \u2013 $2,100, Installed Most homeowners pay $1,400 \u2013 $2,100 for water filtration system installed by a pro.
