Last year, we were thrilled to talk about the newest installation at our house: the AO Smith whole house filtration system. It’s been a real game changer for our family, for so many reasons.
We’re big water drinkers around here and so the AO smith whole house filtration system has been an awesome addition to our home. Our house is older, and while the renovation stripped it down because we wanted to do it right, with fresh everything… we were still relying on our fridge for fresh drinking water.
We installed this great whole house filtration system over a year ago, and never gave it a second thought. Besides the fresh water part, that is.
We’re a year into using this system, so we’re talking about it again, in review. It’s still amazing and we’ve seen so many benefits we wanted to share, in case you’re considering investing in one for your home.
Easy Installation:
This is a whole house filtration system that can easily be installed underneath our house or in your garage.
It’s attached to our main water line, which means that from now on every single glass of water we grab from the faucet, or shower under, is better for us. After that initial installation, beyond the clean water, we’ve kind of taken it for granted because it works so well.
Affordability:
It’s a great, affordable way to provide healthier water to your own home. You can find it at Lowe’s here.
We spent less this year as a family of five. We no longer need to spend $200 annually on fridge filters. That equates to a whopping $1,200 over six years. And a lot of waste. It’s a great way to save while providing healthier, environmentally kind options for your family.
The Healthy facts:
This water filter reduces 97% of the chlorine taste and odor from any faucet, making for lots of safe and pleasant drinking water. I was walking downstairs to the fridge every time I needed a cup of water. Now we simply grab it from any faucet, because we know it’s fresh.
Because of AO smith, we’ve had less exposure to harsh chlorine. Depending on where you live, this can cause excessive drying on your skin and hair. Reducing that exposure can increase softness. {Bonus!} Yes. Our hair and skin, are actually softer, one year in. It’s especially nicer during the winter months, and in a pandemic when everyone is washing their hands and cleaning even more.
Filtering all the water coming into your home helps stop chlorine from evaporating into the air you breathe, providing cleaner air throughout your home. {Double bonus.} We’re all about anything that gives us less cause for plastic bottles!
Life Span:
As we mentioned above, one year in, we haven’t had a single hiccup. The AO Smith whole house filtration system actually comes with a 6 year limited warranty, but the next time we replace it, our oldest will be a senior in high school. That’s kinda nice that you install and you’re done for a while. With all the awesome benefits.
Life is crazy enough without worrying about the healthy water coming from your faucets. And we know everyone is getting more water into their daily intake because it takes so much less effort.
We’ve seen some awesome benefits with their amazing water system this year, and we love using it in our home.
