Enhance your home's water quality with our water filtration installation in Clarksville, TN. At Freedom Plumbing we specialize in filtration solutions matched to your specific needs, so you get clean, safe, great-tasting water.
Our technicians are trained and equipped to install, repair and maintain a wide range of systems, including reverse osmosis, carbon filters and UV purification. Whether you are dealing with hard water, sediment, or contaminants like chlorine and lead, the solution is built around the water quality issues specific to Clarksville and the surrounding area.
What is actually in Clarksville water
The water our district provides is not river water, but it is not just H2O either. A search of the EWG database — a well-known source for testing municipal water — lists fifteen contaminants in the water right here in Clarksville. Bromodichloromethane, chloroform, hexavalent chromium, dibromochloromethane, 1-butanol and more. If it is hard to pronounce, it is fair to ask why it is in your glass.
It is not only a health question. Chlorine especially, and the other chemicals alongside it, quietly damage the piping, faucets, commodes and all the small valves that make up a plumbing system.
Filtration, softening, or both
Filtration is our favorite. Carbon and paper media strip toxins and minerals out, leaving water that is clean and safe to drink, bathe and cook with. Some of our systems add minerals back to raise the pH for better-tasting, healthier water, and we can magnetically ionize the water so it is less inclined to stick to surfaces and build scale.
Softeners are what we get asked about most. They use salt to reverse the polarity of the water's molecules, making it slick. They are the best thing going for preventing scale and corrosion on faucets and fixtures — but they clean rather than filter, so a softener alone is not the whole answer. Paired with filtration, it is excellent.
Reverse osmosis whole-house systems exist but are costly and inefficient. Far more often we fit a small unit under the kitchen sink with its own dedicated tap, giving you the purest drinking water available from any filtration system.
The systems we install
Halo 5 — whole-house filtration and conditioning, a genuine one-size-fits-most for anyone on municipal water. Four stages of carbon filter down to 5 microns, then the Halo Ion 2.0 conditions the water to reduce existing scale and prevent more.
Halo Softener — whole-house softening using resin beads to pull minerals out, with a salt tank that cleans the beads about once a week. Maintenance is adding salt pellets periodically.
Halo Super Soft Combo — the Halo 5 and the Halo Softener together, for clean and softened water throughout the house.
Atlas Duo — two cartridges. The ScaleArmor removes hard water minerals and uses polyphosphate to reduce existing and future scale; the second removes chlorine, taste and odor. Cartridges change once a year.
Atlas Mono — a single-cartridge system. In the 20 inch size it can serve the whole house, and we would recommend the CTO cartridge in it. Budget-friendly for someone who wants filtered water without a large outlay. The 10 inch size with a ScaleArmor cartridge is excellent in front of a water heater — particularly a tankless — to cut maintenance and extend its life.
Atlas Hydra — a single 90-micron filter built to catch the large mineral deposits coming in from a well. Maintained by flipping a switch once a month or less. No cartridge changes. If you are on a well, you want one of these.
Atlas Filtri 6-Stage Reverse Osmosis — a point-of-use system at the kitchen sink with its own clean water tap. The purest water a filtration system can produce, with a remineralizer that puts the good minerals back. Three small cartridges change annually, three more every three years.
