Sediment Filtration in Santa Barbara, CA

Serving Buellton, Solvang, Santa Ynez Valley

Sediment in your plumbing system not only sullies your drinking water but also clogs aerators in faucets, reduces water flow, and decreases the service life of your home appliances and water heater. Sediment filtration systems are the solution.

When the faucets in your California home deliver tiny particles of sand, soil, and rock along with water, it is time to consider a filtration system. Our experts at Coast Plumbing Solutions are ready to help.

In addition to maintaining, repairing, and installing sediment filtration systems, we assist customers with drinking water treatment, irrigation, and leak detection devices.

With years of experience in the water treatment industry, we are your trusted professionals for reverse osmosis, filtration, ultraviolet (UV) light systems, and water softeners in Santa Barbara, CA, and surrounding areas.

Installing a Sediment Filtration System

Although sediment often is easy to detect in tap water, testing also will identify other contaminants in your water. Our qualified professionals will test your water and send samples to a third-party lab. The results will help us determine which water treatment system is best for your home.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends testing well water annually for total coliform bacteria, nitrates, total dissolved solids, and pH levels. The agency notes that a change in your water's taste, color, or smell is a reason for testing.

Identifying Sediment

At Coast Plumbing Solutions, we take a whole-house approach to filtering sediment from your water supply. We install the appropriate sediment filters where your water enters your home, blocking particles before they enter your water heater and faucets.

Our water treatment experts know what size filter will trap the sediment from your well or pipes. Filter ratings correspond to the size of the particles they screen out. For example, we offer cartridge-style filters that are rated 5 microns. That means they effectively screen out particles as small as 5 microns.

Repairing a Sediment Filtration System

If anything goes wrong with your sediment filtration system, or if it is not working as well as it should, call us at Coast Plumbing Solutions for an assessment.

You might benefit from installing a second filter at your kitchen faucet or near other water treatment systems, such as a water softener or reverse osmosis device.

Maintaining a Sediment Filtration System

Water treatment is a must to keep the filter working properly. A clogged filter can affect water pressure and lose its ability to remove sediment.

Check your sediment filter for excessive accumulation of rock, silt, and other particles every couple of weeks. Filter capacity, the amount of water you use, and the amount of sediment in your system determine how long the filter lasts.
