Common Hidden Contaminants in Sarasota Water

Sarasota’s water supply is treated for safety, but several substances can still be present:

Chlorine and chloramines are used to disinfect water, but they can also affect the taste and smell.
Sediment and Rust: Old pipes or natural minerals can cause cloudiness or buildup.
Heavy Metals: Small amounts of lead, copper, or iron may enter water from plumbing.
PFAS (Forever Chemicals): Emerging contaminants found in small traces in some water systems.
Hard Water Minerals: Calcium and magnesium cause scale buildup, making soap less effective.

Many of these contaminants are invisible, which is why water testing and filtration are crucial.

How Water Filtration Systems Remove Contaminants

There are different filtration options depending on what you want to remove from your water:

1. Carbon Filters

Reduce chlorine taste and odor
Remove some organic chemicals
Improve water clarity and freshness

2. Reverse Osmosis (RO) Systems

Remove dissolved solids, heavy metals, and PFAS
Deliver water that tastes clean and crisp
Ideal for drinking and cooking

3. Whole-House Filtration

Treats water at the point it enters your home
Reduces sediment, chlorine, and common minerals throughout every tap
Protects appliances and plumbing

4. Water Softeners

Not technically a filter, but it removes hardness minerals
Prevents scale buildup and improves cleaning efficiency
Often combined with filtration systems for comprehensive care
