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.

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!

We called for a leak and though it's a busy time, they made a same day appointment for us. Joe came earlier and was so professional and friendly. He took a look. Unfortunately the upstairs tenant never came home, so we need to have him come back. I am glad I got him as a referral and I'm pleased to refer him all. THANKS JOE!

When you're dealing with a serious water leak affecting multiple floors of your home, professionalism, confidence, and respect mean everything. Joe from Chivalry Plumbing delivered all three!

From the moment he arrived, the little things impressed me. He brought his own entrance mat, wore protective shoe coverings, and took great care not to track dirt through my home. He carried himself with confidence, and his preparation reflected his professional standards.

I walked Joe through the water damage and shared my observations. Two companies had previously performed moisture readings pointing toward my second-floor bathroom, while True Restorations used diagnostic equipment to identify the suspected location and source. I guided Joe to that area, although several possible leak sources remained. Despite the challenge, he found the exact source and completed the repair. He also respected my request to preserve the leaking component.

I especially appreciated the transparent pricing. Three potential service levels were explained upfront, allowing me to anticipate costs depending on the extent of the investigation. No financial surprises during an already stressful situation!

And the cleanup? Phenomenal! Despite opening part of my shower wall, Joe left my bathroom remarkably clean, possibly cleaner than when he arrived! He even brought equipment to help clear the airborne dust.

Another detail that impressed me was his personal presentation. Despite coming from another emergency, he arrived looking pristine. After getting dirty working at my home, he stepped outside and changed into fresh attire before sitting down to discuss everything with me. That spoke volumes about his standards and respect for customers.

Throughout the process, Joe was patient, respectful, and informative. His communication was every bit as impressive as his workmanship. I was also pleased to learn that Chivalry Plumbing has different divisions for other home service needs.

One constructive suggestion: Having moisture meters and other noninvasive diagnostic tools available directly to the plumbing team could help narrow down potential leak locations before opening walls. The earlier assessments were invaluable in my situation.

Overall, I'm extremely satisfied! Joe, you were genuinely my Superman during a stressful time! 🦸‍♂️ Thank you for stopping the leak, respecting my home, and giving me much-needed peace of mind.

Chivalry Plumbing, Joe represents your company beautifully. Five stars, wholeheartedly deserved! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    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.
