UV Treatment
Here are some very common water concerns. Funny tastes and odors or water appearance may be easily identifiable, however there are other contaminants that go undetected.
Cloudy water - Raw water comes into your home with any number of impurities that cause turbidity.
Hard water - Calcium and magnesium ions in water create hardness, which is what causes soap scum in tubs and showers and spots on faucets and fixtures.
"Rotten egg" smell - The presence of hydrogen sulfide in water gives it an unpleasant smell, sometimes even rendering it unusable.
Musty, earthy, fishy taste or smell - Caused by algae, molds and bacteria that live in water can multiply within a home's plumbing system.
Chlorine taste or smell - Municipalities use chlorine to disinfect water. However, not only does it taste and smell unappealing but it also has a drying effect on skin and hair.
Metallic taste or smell - Generally caused by metals such as iron and manganese, these substances not only taste and smell bad but can also be harmful to your health.
Clean, crystal clear, worry-free drinking water
The simple fact is we can no longer take the quality of our drinking water for granted. Private well water can be affected by any number of contaminating factors, while even municipally treated water that meets all federal guidelines has been found to contain bacteria, viruses and protozoa, along with a host of other contaminants.
And while funny tastes and odor, or water that appears cloudy, can be signs of impurities, many harmful contaminants can only be detected through proper testing.
Only one drinking water system is so advanced that it can eliminate nearly everything from your home's drinking water that isn't water: The Kinetico K5 Drinking Water Station.
Certified to remove more contaminants than any other system.
It's customizable to your home's specific filtration needs.
It's expandable as your water filtration needs change over time.
Well-Water Softeners
Well water brings with it a host of unwanted substances, such as iron and manganese, which are effortlessly removed with a Kinetico well-water softener.
City-Water Softeners
Kinetico city-water softeners remove hardness-causing minerals as well as chlorine and other organic materials that may be present in city water.
A Solution For Every Problem
Kinetico whole house filters are customized to your homes unique water needs:
Macrolite® - Kineticos exclusive ceramic filter, developed in conjunction with 3M, screens oxidized iron, particulate matter and other contaminants down to five microns.
Carbon - Removes chlorine and objectionable odors for fresher water.
Calcite - Raises pH to neutralize water and eliminate acid water problems.
RO - In many areas a whole house Reverse Osmosis system is used to remove high TDS (total desolved solids) and hardness.
Arsenic-Guard™
The Kinetico Arsenic Guard significantly reduces arsenic in water without added chemicals or maintenance (your Kinetico dealer will replace exhausted tanks with fresh ones when necessary).
Aerator
Use the Kinetico Aerator to oxidize dissolved iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide to turn them into a solid form that can be filtered with a Kinetico whole house filter.
Sulfur Guard™
While other solutions out there require multiple stages of expensive, cumbersome, high-maintenance equipment, a Kinetico Sulfur Guard System takes care of hydrogen sulfide problems all in a single, easily maintained unit.
UltraViolet Water Treatment
UV treatment is an excellent choice to eliminate biological contamination from most home drinking water, whether your home is on a municipal water system or untreated private system (well, lake water, etc.). Its sole purpose is to kill harmful biological contaminants, and therefore should always be combined with other forms of filtration for reduction of heavy metals, chlorine, VOC's, and other chemical contaminants.
The Kinetico KUV is the perfect solution for home water treatment. It's compact size means you can install it almost anywhere.
The Crossfire Technology incorporates two high-output UV lamps, with elliptical reflectors, that target pathogens with radiation from 360º, resulting in high UV dosage in a minimal area.
