Water Quality Experts in Erie
The water you use in your home plays a big part in your family’s wellness. You use it for cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, and more. That’s why it’s so important to prioritize water quality. Whether you source your water from a private well or from a municipal system, it can possibly have components or contaminants that may be undesireable or even unhealthy for you. So it’s a good idea to take a closer look at what’s coming from the faucet.

What’s the Difference Between Water Softeners and Water Filters?
Water softeners and water filters are both powerful tools to help improve your home’s water. But they work in different ways and treat different types of contaminants. Water softeners treat water hardness, so if you have concerns about limescale buildup or the impacts of hard water (dry skin, low water flow, interactions with detergent, etc.), a water softener may be the right option. Water filters, on the other hand, are designed to eliminate a wide range of potential contaminants, including chlorine, lead, VOCs, PFAS, and more. What’s present in your water may vary significantly based on your location and your water source – so not every water filter is a one-size-fits-all solution.
Whole-House Water Softeners
You may have heard about ‘hard water’ before, but it’s one of those terms that homeowners may have heard without much context around why it matters. ‘Hardness’ in water refers to the amount of dissolved calcium and magnesium in the water. Hard water can cause powdery deposits and buildups in sinks and tubs, as well as around faucet and shower aerators. Hardness deposits can be a real pain to remove, and it can also reduce the lifespan of many household appliances. Dishwashers, water heaters, and even toilets and other appliances that have automatic water valves can be negatively impacted by hard water. Think premature parts failures, or maybe even worse.
By installing a correctly sized, professionally installed whole-house water softener, you can address these problems at the source, where water enters your home. Whether you’re showering, doing laundry, or drinking, a quality water softener can have a positive impact all around your home.
Whole-House Water Filters
If potential contaminants and water pollutants are more your priority, like a whole-house water softener, a high quality whole-house water filter can also be installed at the point of entry to your home, in this case to remove a broad range of potentially unhealthy or harmful substances. In addition, whole-home water filters can also be setup to mitigate taste and odor issues. The list of water filtration products goes on, including ultraviolet (UV) filters, carbon filters, and more.
Potentially Harmful Contaminants That May Be Present in Your Home’s Water Include:
- Calcium & magnesium (hardness)
- Chlorine (fairly common in municipal water treatment)
- Organic chemicals
- Pesticides and fertilizers
- Plant hormones
- Parasites & unhealthy bacteria
- VOCs
- Nitrates
- Carbon
- Sulfate
- Phosphorous
- Arsenic
- Fluoride
- Zinc
- Iron
- Copper
- Lead
- Aluminum
- PFAS, PFOS, and PFOA chemicals
- and more

Reverse Osmosis Water Filters
Point-of-use reverse osmosic (RO) water filters are an effective option for specific areas of the home. Many homeowners choose to install point-of-use filters in areas like kitchens, master bathrooms, and rec rooms bars. When used alongside a whole-house system, an RO filter won’t need as much routine maintenance, which can be a plus.

First Step for Your Erie Home: Water Testing
No two homes are the same and neither is anyone’s water supply. Having your water tested before considering water quality solutions can give you detailed information and keep you from spending money unnecessarily. For example, you might need a water filter but not necessarily a water softener. Understanding what your household water looks like is the first step to determining the right product (if any) for you.
At Save Home Heat Company, we offer complimentary on-site water testing for many common issues, including hardness, pH, chlorine, copper, nitrates, and more. For substances which cannot be tested for onsite (such as lead and unhealthy bacteria), we also provide independent state-accredited lab testing. All water testing provided by our team is fully transparent, with zero sales agenda.
