The quality of water flowing through your pipes affects everything from the taste of your drinking water to the lifespan of your plumbing fixtures, appliances, and pipes. While municipal water in Tuckahoe meets EPA standards, it can still contain minerals, chlorine, sediment, and other contaminants that affect taste, cause scale buildup, dry out skin and hair, and leave spots on dishes and glassware. Tuckahoe Plumbing Co provides professional water treatment and filtration solutions tailored to your specific water quality concerns.
We offer a comprehensive range of water treatment systems, including whole-house water filtration to remove sediment, chlorine, and contaminants from every faucet in your home; water softeners to eliminate hard water problems like scale buildup, soap scum, and dry skin; reverse osmosis systems for ultra-pure drinking water at the kitchen sink; and UV purification systems for homes on well water or those wanting an additional layer of bacterial protection.
Every home's water quality is different, which is why we start with a professional water quality analysis to identify exactly what's in your water and recommend the most effective, cost-efficient treatment solution. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all approaches — our recommendations are based on your water test results, household size, water usage, and specific concerns. All systems are professionally installed, programmed, and maintained to deliver optimal performance year after year.

We follow a proven process to ensure every job is completed to the highest standards. Here's what you can expect when you choose Tuckahoe Plumbing Co:
Water Quality Testing
We collect water samples and test for hardness, pH, chlorine, TDS, iron, sediment, and other contaminants. This tells us exactly what your water contains and what treatment it needs.

We program the system for optimal performance, test the treated water to verify results, and show you basic maintenance like filter replacement schedules.
Why Hire a Professional for Water Treatment?
Water treatment is a specialized field that requires understanding of water chemistry, system sizing, proper installation techniques, and ongoing maintenance requirements. An improperly sized or installed system can be ineffective, waste water, damage your plumbing, or even introduce contaminants. For example, a water softener that's too small for your household will regenerate too frequently, wasting salt and water. One that's too large won't regenerate often enough, allowing bacterial growth in the resin bed.
Professional installation ensures proper placement, correct plumbing connections with bypass valves for maintenance, appropriate drainage for backwash and brine, and electrical connections where needed. We also handle any code requirements related to water treatment installations in the Tuckahoe area, including backflow prevention and drain connections. Our ongoing maintenance programs keep your system operating at peak performance and ensure your investment continues to deliver clean, quality water for years to come.

|---|---|---|
| Water Testing | Basic test strips miss many contaminants | Comprehensive testing identifies all issues |
| System Selection | May choose wrong type or size | Right system matched to your specific water quality |
| Installation | Risk of leaks, improper connections | Code-compliant, leak-free professional installation |

Taking preventive measures can help you avoid costly plumbing issues down the road. Here are our expert recommendations:
- Have your water tested annually to monitor quality changes, especially if you notice taste or odor changes
- Replace water filter cartridges on the manufacturer's recommended schedule — expired filters can harbor bacteria
- Keep water softener salt levels maintained and use the salt type recommended for your specific unit
- Clean reverse osmosis membranes and replace pre-filters as recommended to maintain purification performance
- If you have well water, test annually for bacteria, nitrates, and any contaminants common to your area
- Flush whole-house sediment filters regularly, especially after water main work or heavy rain
