Sediment Filtration

Sediment Filtration in Massapequa

Sediment in your plumbing system not only sullies your drinking water but also clogs aerators in faucets, reduces water flow, and decreases the service life of your home appliances and water heater.

When the faucets in your New York home deliver tiny particles of sand, soil, and rock along with water, it is time to consider a filtration system. Our experts at Chivalry Plumbing, Heating & Cooling are ready to help.

In addition to maintaining, repairing, and installing sediment filtration systems, we assist customers with drinking water treatment and leak detection devices.

With years of experience in the water treatment industry, we are your trusted professionals for reverse osmosis, filtration, ultraviolet (UV) light systems, and water softeners in Wantagh, NY, and surrounding areas.

Installing a Sediment Filtration System

Although sediment often is easy to detect in tap water, testing also will identify other contaminants in your water. Our qualified professionals will test your water and send samples to a third-party lab. The results will help us determine which water treatment system is best for your home.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends testing well water annually for total coliform bacteria, nitrates, total dissolved solids, and pH levels. The agency notes that a change in your water’s taste, color, or smell is a reason for testing.

Chivalry Plumbing, Heating & Cooling wants to make it easy for you to create a healthy home for you and your loved ones. That’s why we offer convenient financing options customized to your budget and needs.

Our Services

Identifying Sediment

At Chivalry Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, we take a whole-house approach to filtering sediment from your water supply. We install the appropriate sediment filters where your water enters your home, blocking particles before they enter your water heater and faucets.

Our water treatment experts know what size filter will trap the sediment from your well or pipes. Filter ratings correspond to the size of the particles they screen out. For example, we offer cartridge-style filters that are rated 5 microns. That means they effectively screen out particles as small as 5 microns.

Repairing a Sediment Filtration System

If anything goes wrong with your sediment filtration system, or if it is not working as well as it should, call us at Chivalry Plumbing, Heating & Cooling for an assessment.

You might benefit from installing a second filter at your kitchen faucet or near other water treatment systems, such as a water softener or reverse osmosis device.

I’ve been meaning to write this for a while. Back in Fall 2025, Chivalry Plumbing installed our new boiler and removed the old one, and the whole experience was excellent from start to finish. Will, Anthony, and Eric were fantastic to work with. They were professional, respectful of our home, and incredibly clean and neat throughout the entire process. What really stood out was how efficiently they worked. They completed a full boiler installation and removal in just one day, and the setup they put in is top notch. We couldn’t be happier with the quality of the work. I highly recommend Chivalry Plumbing to anyone looking for reliable, skilled, and courteous service.

I had a serious gas leak in ny 1923 house in Elmont. Being that others on the job have used this company, I figured I would give them a try. They sent out David in a timely manner being that the main was turned off by the Regs. David was informative and patient with my cost concerns and product placement with sheet rock being cut away. I can say that he did his honest best and gave me 2 quotes which I could swing. There was a payment plan available on there website if I wanted that route. I feel that this company has excellent customer service. They chose wisely with David and Anthony that partnered him on the large job that was done in a day. I recommend this company and ask for these 2 men as they are the best when I was seriously overwhelmed.

I contacted this company because I thought I had a plumbing-related leak. Brandon, with assistance from Anthony, took the time to properly assess the situation and ultimately ruled out plumbing as the cause. Instead, they pointed me in the direction of a possible roof flashing issue. I especially want to recognize Brandon for his honesty and professionalism. He could have easily gone along with unnecessary work, but instead, he was upfront and steered me in the right direction. That kind of integrity is hard to find and truly appreciated. Thanks to his guidance, I’ve now scheduled an inspection with a siding/roofing company. I’m grateful for the transparency and would definitely recommend this team.

    Maintaining a Sediment Filtration System

    Water treatment is a must to keep the filter working properly. A clogged filter can affect water pressure and lose its ability to remove sediment.

    Check your sediment filter for excessive accumulation of rock, silt, and other particles every couple of weeks. Filter capacity, the amount of water you use, and the amount of sediment in your system determine how long the filter lasts.

    If you prefer, Chivalry Plumbing, Heating & Cooling can handle maintenance for you.
