If you live in Ooltewah, Chattanooga, or Dalton, you may want to take a closer look at what's coming out of your tap. A recent Chattanooga Times Free Press article revealed that PFAS, also known as "forever chemicals," are showing up in drinking water throughout Tennessee and Northwest Georgia. These chemicals are linked to a variety of health concerns and may be continuing to flood into our groundwater from sources like carpet manufacturers, landfills, and even the Biosolids used as fertilizer on some local farms.


But PFAS aren't the only concern. Many homes in our area also struggle with hard water that damages clothes, dries out skin and hair, and shortens the lifespan of our appliances. High chlorine levels can also affect the taste and safety of your water.


Fortunately, there are in-home water systems available to help. Called the “Best Available Technology” by by the Water Quality Association and US Environmental Protection Agency, these compact water filtration devices reduce chemicals such as PFAS and chlorine in your home. In addition, reverse osmosis systems not only remove impurities but also improve the taste of the water.


Tri State Water Solutions has a variety of water filtration options that can help homeowners improve the taste and safety of your home’s water. You can get started with a free, no-obligation in-home water test for registered property owners. It’s the first step to understanding exactly what’s in your water, and how our purification systems can help protect your health, your family, and your home.


If your water were toxic, wouldn't you want to know?
