Whole House Water Filtration

Whole House Water Filtration
for Houston Homes

Houston's water contains chlorine, chloramines, and 7 contaminants above EWG health guidelines. Whole house filtration removes these at the point of entry — so every tap, shower, and appliance gets clean, filtered water.

When combined with a water softener, whole house filtration provides comprehensive protection: soft water prevents scale and appliance damage, while carbon filtration removes chemical contaminants. Klaro's Duo Fresh+ system combines both in a single compact unit.

Klaro's whole house filtration systems use multi-stage catalytic carbon filtration to remove chlorine, chloramines, TTHMs, VOCs, sediment, and other contaminants. The result is clean, filtered water at every point of use in your home.

Houston's municipal water is treated with chlorine and chloramines to kill bacteria during distribution. While effective as disinfectants, these chemicals react with organic matter to form disinfection byproducts (DBPs) including trihalomethanes (TTHMs) and haloacetic acids — compounds linked to increased cancer risk with long-term exposure.

A whole house water filtration system (also called a point-of-entry or POE system) is installed where the main water line enters your home. This means every tap, shower, bathtub, washing machine, dishwasher, and ice maker receives filtered water — not just your kitchen sink.

What Is Whole House Water Filtration?

Benefits

Chlorine & Chloramine Removal

Catalytic carbon filtration removes 99%+ of chlorine and chloramines from all water entering your home, eliminating the chemical smell and taste.

Protect Your Skin & Hair

Chlorine in shower water strips natural oils from skin and hair. Filtered water is gentler, reducing dryness, irritation, and damage — especially for those with sensitive skin or eczema.

Protect Your Appliances

Chlorine and sediment accelerate wear on washing machines, dishwashers, and water heaters. Filtered water extends appliance life and reduces maintenance costs.

Better Tasting Water Everywhere

Not just at the kitchen sink — filtered water throughout your home means better tasting coffee, ice, pasta, and anything else made with tap water.

Reduce Disinfection Byproducts

TTHMs and haloacetic acids form when chlorine reacts with organic matter. Carbon filtration removes these compounds before they reach your taps.

Sediment & Particulate Removal

Pre-filters catch sediment, rust, and particulates that can clog faucet aerators, damage appliances, and affect water clarity.

How It Works

Free Water Test

We test your water for chlorine, chloramines, sediment, hardness, and other contaminants to design the right system.

System Design

We size the system for your home's water flow rate and usage to ensure optimal performance without pressure loss.

Point-of-Entry Installation

Installed where the main line enters your home — typically in the garage or utility room. Takes 2–4 hours.

Ongoing Maintenance

Filter media lasts 5–10 years depending on usage. We offer maintenance plans to keep your system performing optimally.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between whole house filtration and a water softener?

A water softener removes hardness minerals (calcium and magnesium) via ion exchange. Whole house filtration removes chemical contaminants like chlorine, chloramines, and VOCs via carbon filtration. They address different problems and work best together — which is why Klaro's Duo Fresh+ combines both.

Will whole house filtration reduce water pressure?

A properly sized system has minimal impact on water pressure. Klaro sizes systems based on your home's water flow rate (measured in gallons per minute) to ensure no noticeable pressure reduction.

How long do the filters last?

Klaro's catalytic carbon media lasts 5–10 years depending on water usage and quality. Pre-sediment filters are replaced every 6–12 months. We offer maintenance plans that include scheduled filter changes.

Does whole house filtration remove hardness?

Standard carbon filtration does not remove hardness minerals. For complete protection, Klaro recommends combining filtration with a water softener or conditioner — available as the Duo Fresh+ system.

Is whole house filtration worth it in Houston?

Yes. Houston's water contains chlorine, chloramines, and multiple contaminants above EWG health guidelines. Whole house filtration removes these at the source, protecting your family's health, your appliances, and your home's plumbing.
