Lead Reduction in Larsen
Challenge
A customer in Larsen was selling their home, during an inspection they discovered there was lead in the water. After replacing a lot of the plumbing in the home from galvanized to copper they still had unsafe levels of lead. Instead of digging up all the plumbing from the well to the home, which if the well is cased in lead, may still not solve the problem, they called Clean Water Center to see if we could help.
Solution
A project Coordinator came out to the home and discussed the option of installing a ONE filter. The One filter is a 40in floor standing cartridge filter and when paired with our lead and cyst carbon filter all the water in the home is now lead free. The filter is rated for 50,000 gallons and now they don’t have to dig up the yard, or possibly even drill a completely new well.
