Including filter system and high-performance Waterborne Viruses filter.
Waterborne viruses can get into household water when sewage, animal waste, or stressed treatment systems affect a source. Because these viruses are microscopic, you usually won’t see, smell, or taste any problem, which is why many Jones Landing homeowners prefer an extra layer of protection beyond standard treatment. That added safeguard helps protect water used for drinking, cooking, and brushing teeth.
Unlike visible sediment or common taste-and-odor problems, viruses are so small they can pass through filters that only block particles. They also behave differently than bacteria, which are generally larger and easier to trap. For families in Jones Landing who want greater confidence in every faucet, focusing on filtration or treatment designed specifically to reduce microbes where water enters the house is a practical step.
A whole-house UV disinfection system is often the single most effective treatment to add at the main line for protection against waterborne viruses. UV exposes flowing water to ultraviolet light inside a sealed chamber, targeting viruses and other microorganisms without introducing chemicals. Because it treats water as it flows, a properly installed UV unit protects all taps in your Jones Landing home continuously.
UV systems work best when water is clear, so they’re typically installed after a prefilter that removes sediment which can shield microbes from the light. Correct sizing for your household flow rate plus routine lamp and sleeve maintenance are important to keep performance reliable. With the right whole-house UV setup, Jones Landing homeowners gain a practical, targeted barrier against waterborne viruses entering the home.
