Municipal water systems do a tremendous job of delivering treated water to homes and businesses—but that doesn’t always mean the water is perfect by the time it reaches your tap. Many homeowners still experience issues like chlorine taste and odor, hard water scale, and concerns about contaminants that make it through the system.
At Advance Pump & Filter Company, we help homeowners take control of their water quality. Here’s how we transform city water into clean, comfortable, great-tasting water with a few simple solutions.

1. Carbon Treatment for Chlorine Removal
City water is typically treated with chlorine or chloramines to disinfect the supply and keep it safe as it travels through miles of piping. While this process is essential for public health, it often leaves behind a strong chemical taste and odor.
Our solution: Activated Carbon Filtration.
Carbon filters are highly effective at removing chlorine and improving the taste and smell of your water. Whether installed as a whole-house system or under the kitchen sink, carbon filtration gives your water a fresh, clean taste—making drinking, cooking, and even showering more pleasant.

2. Softeners for Hard Water Minerals
Many city water supplies are considered “hard,” meaning they contain high levels of calcium and magnesium. These minerals can lead to buildup on plumbing fixtures, spots on dishes, and dry skin or hair after bathing.
Our solution: Water Softeners.
A water softener exchanges those hardness minerals for sodium or potassium ions, preventing scale buildup and extending the life of your plumbing and appliances. You’ll also enjoy smoother skin, softer laundry, and less soap usage throughout the home.
3. Point-of-Use Reverse Osmosis Systems for Peace of Mind

Even with municipal treatment, small traces of contaminants like lead, PFAS, or nitrates may still be present—or may enter through aging pipes. If you’re looking for that extra layer of protection for your drinking water, reverse osmosis (RO) is an excellent choice.
Our solution: Point-of-Use Reverse Osmosis System.
These compact systems remove up to 99% of dissolved solids, giving you high quality water right from your tap. It’s ideal for families who want complete confidence in their water, especially for drinking, cooking, and making baby formula.
