We install home water filtration.

Our plumbers install professional-grade drinking water filters and whole-home filtration systems. Reverse-osmosis (RO) systems filter out contaminants such as lead and pesticides and improve the taste and feel of your water.

Not sure what's in your water? Start with a test. One of our plumbers can check it, including for elevated lead levels, and recommend what actually fits your home.

What's in your water?

Older pipes, real concerns.

Like many American cities, parts of Chicago struggle with water quality. With aging pipes, lead is a particular concern.

A 2018 Chicago Tribune report found that 30% of sampled homes had lead levels above 5 parts per billion. Health professionals and researchers agree there's no safe level of lead exposure, especially for children.

Most lead reaches the home through aging lead service lines. Cities are slowly replacing them, and until that's done, experts recommend drinking water filtration. A filter removes lead and other contaminants before the water reaches your faucet, fridge or shower.

Our water services.

Three ways we improve the water in your home.

  • Reverse osmosis

    Mounted under the kitchen sink for drinking water, or sized to filter the whole home.

  • Water softeners

    Hard water leaves scale on faucets and fixtures, is rough on appliances and pipes, and can taste off.

  • Water quality testing

    Find out what's in your water, including whether lead levels are elevated.

Choosing a system

Point-of-use or whole-home.

Reverse-osmosis systems come in two main forms, and the right one depends on where your family gets its water.

A sink-specific RO system installs in the cabinet below and filters water for that one faucet, usually the kitchen sink where you fill glasses and pots. A whole-home system filters water for the entire house and is usually wall-mounted in a garage or storage closet.

Hard water is its own issue. A softener or conditioner reduces the scale that builds up in pipes, fixtures and water heaters.

What is the best water filtration system for lead?
To remove lead and many other contaminants, the U.S. EPA recommends reverse-osmosis systems that are manufacturer-certified to remove 'total lead.' NSF International tests and certifies qualifying filters as total-lead compliant.
How much does a water filtration system cost?
It depends on the type. A single-sink RO system costs less than a whole-home system that filters every tap. Call us for an estimate and we'll price the option that fits your home.
Do I need a water filter or a water softener?
A filter removes contaminants like lead. A softener deals with the hard-water minerals that cause scale. Some homes need one, some need both, and a water test tells you which. Water filter vs. water softener.
Where does King install water filtration?
Across the greater Chicago area, including Skokie, Morton Grove, Evanston, Glenview and Lincolnwood, and in Northwest Indiana. See all service areas.
Should I filter one sink or the whole house?
A sink reverse-osmosis system fits in the cabinet below and filters the tap your family drinks from. A whole-home system filters water for the entire house and is usually wall-mounted in a garage or storage closet. Call us for an estimate on either.
