Including filter system and high-performance Radon filter.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can dissolve into groundwater and make its way into a home's plumbing. Though most people think of radon as an indoor air concern, it can be present in well water and other sources, releasing into the air when you shower, run the dishwasher, or do laundry. Ashville homeowners who are concerned about radon often consider testing both their water and indoor air, since water use can contribute to airborne radon inside the house.
Because radon has no taste, smell, or color, you can't detect it by looking at or tasting your water—testing is the only reliable way to know what's present. Levels can differ from property to property, so an Ashville household might see different results than the house next door. If tests show elevated radon in your water, a solution that treats water at the point it enters your Ashville home is often the best way to protect every faucet, shower and appliance.
The most effective single-treatment option for removing radon from household water is a whole-house aeration system installed on the main water line as it enters the home. Aeration strips radon from the water by transferring the gas into an exhaust air stream before the water reaches showers, sinks, and appliances. Because radon is a gas, aeration addresses it more directly than sediment or carbon filters, delivering reduced radon levels throughout your Ashville home's water supply.
A whole-house aeration filter is a contained unit that mixes water with air to release radon, then vents the radon-laden air safely outdoors. Placed before your water heater and main plumbing, it treats all the water used for bathing, cooking and cleaning in the home. In some cases a prefilter is recommended to protect the aeration unit and plumbing from sediment or particulates. Mr. Pure Water can assess your Ashville plumbing layout and recommend the right aeration system and placement for dependable whole-home radon reduction.
