Water Filtration Installation In Big Island, HI FAQs​

A multi-stage filtration approach works best for catchment water on the Big Island. The typical setup includes a sediment pre-filter to remove particulates, followed by a carbon filter to address taste, odor, and organic compounds, and then a disinfection stage, either UV or chlorination, to address biological contamination. For drinking and cooking water, an under-sink reverse osmosis system added after the main treatment provides the highest level of purification. The right combination depends on your water test results, which should guide what the system needs to address.
Hard water from county sources or wells on the Big Island contains elevated calcium and magnesium that a standard sediment or carbon filter doesn’t remove. If hard water is the primary concern, a water softener or whole-house scale inhibitor is the appropriate treatment, either alone or in combination with other filtration. A water test will confirm the hardness level and help determine whether softening, a template-assisted crystallization system, or a combination approach is right for your household’s needs and budget.
A whole-house filtration system is installed on the main water supply line after the meter or pressure tank, before the line branches to individual fixtures. This ensures all water entering the home is treated. The installation point needs to be accessible for filter cartridge changes and system maintenance. On catchment properties, the filtration system is typically located near the pump and pressure tank, which are often in a utility area or outbuilding. Keeping the system accessible makes maintenance simpler and helps ensure filter changes happen on schedule.
Sediment pre-filters on catchment systems typically need replacement every one to three months depending on the particulate load in the collected water. Carbon filters generally last six to twelve months. UV lamp assemblies should be replaced annually regardless of appearance, since UV output degrades over time even when the bulb still illuminates. Reverse osmosis membranes typically last two to three years. High sediment loads during heavy rain periods can shorten pre-filter life significantly, so checking filters after major rain events is good practice on catchment systems.
Vog can affect catchment water quality when sulfur dioxide in the atmosphere dissolves in rainwater and increases its acidity before it reaches the catchment tank. Elevated acidity can corrode metal plumbing components and affect taste. A pH neutralizing filter can address water acidity. On the Kona side and in Puna, where vog is more frequent, testing water pH is a worthwhile part of any assessment of a catchment system’s filtration needs. Steve’s Plumbing & A/C Service can help you evaluate your current system and identify any gaps in treatment.
