What Changes When Your Water Actually Works
Your water heater stops fighting scale buildup. Your shower doesn’t leave that film on your skin. Your coffee tastes like coffee, not chlorine.
A whole home carbon filter handles the taste and odor issues. Multi-stage sediment filtration catches what’s floating in your lines. And if you’re dealing with the hard water that’s common across Central Florida, a water softener combination addresses the mineral content that’s quietly wearing down your plumbing and appliances.
You’re not just filtering water at one tap. You’re treating it the moment it enters your home. Every faucet, every shower, every appliance—protected from the stuff that shouldn’t be there in the first place.
This is what a point-of-entry system does. It handles the problem upstream so you don’t have to think about it downstream.
Araquey Water Treatment Experts
We've Been Doing This for 50 Years
We’ve been installing and servicing water treatment systems across the state since the 1970s. We’re members of the National Water Quality Association, A-rated by the Better Business Bureau, and we actually service what we sell—which apparently isn’t a given in this industry.
We’re not a national franchise that disappears after installation. We’re a Florida company that understands Florida water. Araquey sits in an area where groundwater picks up minerals, sediment, and agricultural runoff before it reaches your home. We test for it, treat for it, and make sure your system keeps working long after we leave.
If you’re military or a first responder, we knock $500 off. It’s our way of saying thanks to the people who show up when it matters.
How Whole House Filtration Works
Here's What Happens from Start to Finish
We start with a water test. Not a guess, not a generic recommendation—an actual analysis of what’s in your water. That tells us whether you’re dealing with hardness, chlorine, sediment, heavy metals, or some combination of all four.
From there, we design a system that fits your home. That might mean a whole home carbon filter for taste and odor, a sediment filter for particulate, or a water softener combination if hardness is the main issue. Some homes in Araquey need all three stages working together.
Installation happens at your main water line—your point of entry. That’s where we intercept everything before it splits off to your kitchen, bathrooms, and appliances. The system uses filter media backwashing to clean itself periodically, so you’re not constantly swapping cartridges.
Once it’s in, we walk you through how it works, what to expect, and when to schedule service. Then we leave you with water that actually works the way it should.

What's Included in Araquey Installations
What You Get with a System from Us
Every installation starts with free water testing. We’re not selling you a system until we know what’s actually in your water. That test checks for hardness, chlorine, pH, iron, sulfur, and other contaminants common to Central Florida’s aquifer-fed water supply.
You get a custom-designed system based on those results. If your water has high mineral content, we’ll recommend a water softener combination that prevents scale buildup in your pipes and appliances. If chlorine taste is the issue, a whole home carbon filter handles that. If sediment is clogging your fixtures, multi-stage sediment filtration catches it before it gets that far.
We install the system at your point of entry, test it to make sure it’s working correctly, and show you how to monitor it. You’ll also get a maintenance schedule—because even the best system needs occasional filter media backwashing or cartridge replacement. We service everything we install, and we service other brands too if you’ve inherited a system that’s not performing.
Araquey homeowners deal with the same aquifer issues as the rest of Lake County—high mineral content, occasional sulfur smell, and sediment from agricultural areas. We’ve been handling those problems for decades, so we know what works here and what doesn’t.
How much does a whole house water filter cost in Araquey?
A basic point-of-entry system starts around $1,500 to $2,500 for sediment and carbon filtration. If you need a water softener combination to handle Florida’s hard water, you’re looking at $3,000 to $6,000 depending on your home’s size and water usage.
That might sound like a lot upfront, but compare it to what you’re already spending. Bottled water for a family of four runs about $1,200 a year. A water heater replacement because of scale buildup costs $1,500 to $3,000. Appliances that fail early because of mineral deposits add up fast.
Most systems pay for themselves within three to five years just from the money you save on bottled water, energy bills, and appliance repairs. After that, you’re ahead. We also offer financing if you’d rather spread the cost out, and military and first responders get $500 off.
What contaminants does a whole house filter remove in Florida?
It depends on the system, but a properly designed setup handles the most common issues in Central Florida water. Multi-stage sediment filtration removes dirt, rust, and particulate that gets into your lines from aging infrastructure or well systems. A whole home carbon filter takes care of chlorine, chloramine, and organic compounds that affect taste and odor.
If you’re on well water in Araquey, you might also be dealing with iron, sulfur, or tannins from decaying vegetation. Those require specific filtration media. Heavy metals like arsenic or lead—less common but not unheard of in Florida—need a more advanced filter or a reverse osmosis stage.
Hard water isn’t a contaminant, but it’s still a problem. Calcium and magnesium cause scale buildup in your pipes, water heater, and appliances. A water softener combination handles that by exchanging those minerals for sodium or potassium before the water enters your home. We test your water first so we know exactly what we’re filtering out, not just guessing.
Do I need a water softener with my whole house filter?
If you’re in Araquey, probably. Most of Central Florida has moderately hard to very hard water because of the limestone aquifers that supply our groundwater. That means calcium and magnesium are dissolving into your water before it even reaches your home.
Hard water doesn’t make you sick, but it wears out everything it touches. It leaves white buildup on your faucets and showerheads. It makes your water heater work harder and fail sooner. It reduces water pressure over time as scale narrows your pipes.
A water softener combination pairs a softener with your filtration system so you’re addressing both hardness and contaminants at the same time. The softener handles minerals, the carbon filter handles chlorine and taste, and the sediment filter catches particulate. It’s the most common setup we install because it solves the full range of problems Florida homeowners actually face. If your water test shows hardness above 7 grains per gallon, you’ll want a softener in the mix.
How often does a whole house water filter need maintenance?
It depends on the type of system and your water quality, but here’s the general timeline. Sediment filters need new cartridges every three to six months if you’re on well water or dealing with a lot of particulate. Carbon filters last six to twelve months depending on your chlorine levels and water usage.
Water softeners don’t need filter changes, but they do need salt or potassium refills every few weeks. The resin bed inside the softener should be checked annually and replaced every ten to fifteen years. Some systems use filter media backwashing, which means they clean themselves automatically by flushing out trapped sediment—those need less hands-on maintenance but should still be inspected once a year.
We set up a maintenance schedule when we install your system so you know what to expect. Most homeowners can handle salt refills and basic cartridge swaps on their own. For anything more involved, we come out and take care of it. Regular maintenance keeps your system running efficiently and extends its lifespan, so it’s worth staying on top of.
Will a whole house filter lower my water pressure?
Not if it’s sized correctly. A properly designed point-of-entry system accounts for your home’s flow rate and the pressure you’re starting with. If your system is too small for your household or the filter media gets clogged, then yes, you’ll notice a drop in pressure.
That’s why we test your water and measure your flow rate before recommending a system. A family of four using multiple fixtures at once needs a higher flow rate than a couple in a smaller home. We size the system to match your usage so you don’t sacrifice pressure for filtration.
If you’re already dealing with low pressure, a whole house filter won’t make it worse—but it also won’t fix an underlying plumbing issue. In some cases, homeowners in Araquey have low pressure because of scale buildup in their pipes from years of untreated hard water. Installing a water softener combination can actually improve pressure over time by preventing new buildup and gradually breaking down what’s already there.
