Kitchen water problems we fix
An under-sink filter in Batavia gives you clean drinking and cooking water straight from a dedicated faucet. We match the system to your water source and pipes and install it in one visit.
Don't want to drill the counter
No drilling required in many cases: we use an existing hole or a system that feeds your current faucet.
Hard water and scale
Calcium and magnesium leave scale on kettles and faucets. Reverse osmosis removes most of it from drinking water; a softener treats the whole house.
Cloudy ice and spotted glasses
Hard-water spots on glassware and cloudy ice cubes improve with reverse osmosis at the sink.
PFAS and other contaminants
Many people now ask about PFAS. Look for systems certified to reduce PFOA/PFOS; reverse osmosis covers the widest range.
Pitcher filter is too slow
Under-sink filtration gives you a steady flow instead of refilling a pitcher all day.
Refrigerator filter not enough
Fridge filters are small and often expensive. An under-sink system can feed both your sink tap and your fridge.
Buying bottled water
Stop hauling water bottles — a filtered faucet gives you clean water on demand.

Under-Sink Water Filtration questions from Batavia homeowners
Do I need a softener with a well?
On most wells, yes — hardness and iron clog filters quickly. Treating them first keeps the drinking system working.
How often do filters need changing?
Most cartridges last 6–12 months. We'll set a reminder schedule.
Will a filter lower my water pressure?
The main kitchen faucet is unaffected — filtered water comes from its own tap.
Does RO waste water?
RO sends some water to the drain while it filters. Modern systems are much more efficient than older ones.
Reverse osmosis or carbon filter?
If taste is the issue, carbon. For the broadest protection, RO.
