Water Treatment in Wilmington, NC

How’s your drinking water these days? Is it time to ask your plumbing company about water treatment and filtration?

Why We Need Water Treatment and Filtration

As you might know, there have been some problems with our Wilmington area drinking water recently.

In 2018, an alarm was raised by the discovery of a PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance) called GenX in the Cape Fear River. GenX is a potential toxin and byproduct from a nearby chemical manufacturing plant.

PFAS chemicals aren’t found in nature, and they can take a long time to break down in either the environment or the human body. They can build up in human and animal tissue and cause illness or congenital disabilities.

A year later, in 2019, more PFAS were found in the same river, very close to Wilmington’s drinking water intake. Unfortunately, polyfluorinated ethers like GenX aren’t eliminated by standard drinking water treatment.

How Our Water Filtration System Can Help

This is where we come in. We can hardly eliminate these chemicals from the entire Wilmington area water supply. However, we can provide something to clean the drinking water for your home or business. We will install a whole-house, point-of-service filtration system that uses reverse osmosis to remove toxins and pollutants from your water. Not only will you enjoy greater peace of mind, but you will also enjoy some of the cleanest and freshest water you’ve ever tasted. The reverse osmosis process forces simple, basic water molecules through a semipermeable membrane, leaving any pollutants behind for disposal. Our whole-house filtration system is an investment that will pay dividends in the form of your family’s health and well-being. Or, if you’re a business, it will be a gesture of care and generosity toward your employees. Call Paxton Plumbing at 910-620-5637 about a quote on installing the right system for you.
