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.

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.

Update - I had another issue with my oil burner on 10/24/26. Chivalry came out the same day, fixed the problem and had me up and running in no time. Super professional. Reasonable price. Excellent service

I’ve been having minor issues with my oil burner for a few weeks now so I called Chivalry on Monday 12/29. By 11:30 am Tuesday 12/30 they had a wonderful technician named Nick at my house. Nick was very professional, knowledgeable, honest, and did really nice job and clean work. I’d highly recommend Chivalry. From the initial phone call through the repair itself, this company was professional and made things really easy for me. Very reasonable rates as well. If you’re having heating or cooling problems, this is the company to call.

This company and service team are fantastic! When I first spoke to Kaye, and Andy. I knew I was in great hands. Their professional manner and patience is invaluable. My home needed a new sewer line and I was stressed. I had previous plumbing service, and unfortunately was not satisfied. Kaye informed me that Joe would lead the service evaluation and it was excellent. Joe and Dan are terrific! They are both highly knowledgeable, professional and quite personable. I felt immediately reassured that the sewer line was the central problem. They devoted a lot of time explaining everything patiently, and clearly by using the camera device.
From the beginning of the job to the very end, each service person worked diligently and the job was finished in a reasonable amount of time. I greatly appreciate the dedication each service provider has to customer service and their work! If I could, I would give 10 stars. I will always recommend this company and the team and will continue using their services. This is truly the best plumbing service I have had, in the 22 years of owning my home in Nassau County. Special gratitude to Kaye, Andy, Joe and Dan! I highly recommend their service!

Joe was very knowledgeable and efficient in determining the pool heater size and electrical connection. He provided an estimate on site which we were happy with. We feel confident in his capabilities and that the work will be done in a highly satisfactory manner.

During the job, Joe organized the pool heater team, quickly followed by the electrician for hook up, then Joe performed the gas plumbing. The finished product looks and works great, and we couldn’t be happier over the excellent timing of the job!

    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.
