Whole-home filtration
Whole-Home Water Filtration in Frisco
Frisco water is disinfected with chloramine. A whole-home filter takes out the pool-like taste and smell at every faucet and shower.
Why Frisco water can taste like a pool
Frisco's water supplier, the North Texas Municipal Water District, uses chloramine to keep water safe in the pipes. It meets safety standards, but many people notice its taste and smell in drinking water, coffee and the shower.
How whole-home filtration works
Water passes through a large tank of catalytic carbon where it enters your home. Catalytic carbon is designed to break down chloramine, which standard carbon handles poorly.
- —Better-tasting water from every tap
- —Showers without a chlorine smell
- —Less chlorine exposure for skin and hair
- —Little upkeep, with long-lasting media
Filter, softener or both?
A filter fixes taste and smell, while a softener fixes hardness and scale. Many Frisco homes choose both, and we'll recommend what your water report shows you need.

Filtration questions
What is chloramine and why is it in my water?
+
Chloramine is a disinfectant made by combining chlorine and ammonia, and NTMWD uses it to keep water safe as it travels through the pipes. It is safe to drink at regulated levels, but many people notice a pool-like taste or smell, which a catalytic carbon filter can remove.
Does a water softener remove chlorine or chloramine?
+
No. A softener removes hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium, but it does not remove chlorine or chloramine. For taste and smell you need a whole-home carbon filter, and many Frisco homes pair the two in one system.
How long does installation take?
+
Most softener and whole-home filter installs take about half a day. A reverse osmosis system under the kitchen sink usually takes two to three hours, and we can typically schedule within a few days.
