The Benefits of Water Treatment
Opting for a water filtration system for your home holds various benefits. Below are just a few examples of ways we’ve made a difference for homeowners like you:
- Minimized hard water issues: Hard water can inflict damage on textiles, roughen skin, and complicate dish cleaning. Our water filtration systems can eliminate minerals causing hardness, sparing you these inconveniences.
- Improved health: Certain health issues may be aggravated by consuming impure water. Elevating water quality may result in improved overall health.
- Enhanced drinking water flavor: Elevating water quality often translates to an improved taste. If tap water has been met with reluctance, consider the convenience of home water filtration. It’s cost-effective and hassle-free compared to purchasing bottled water.
Additional motivations for choosing water filtration span from appliance preservation to preempting potential health complications from current water consumption, and even financial savings. We’re here to guide you through the potential advantages you could reap.
Our Poughkeepsie customers particularly appreciate how proper water treatment extends the life of water-using appliances like dishwashers, washing machines, and water heaters. By preventing scale buildup and mineral deposits, you can significantly reduce maintenance costs and avoid premature replacement of these expensive household items.

Poughkeepsie Water Filtration
For your family’s well-being, ensuring the steady flow of clean, pure drinking water is paramount. At Folkes Brothers, we empower you to achieve this objective with top rated products from quality companies. Your tap water can harbor particles, dissolved organics, dissolved inorganics, and bacteria, all of which can be effectively removed through a variety of filtration methods.
Our filtration systems capture sediment, chlorine, and other contaminants that affect taste, odor, and safety. We offer both point-of-use solutions for drinking water and whole-house systems that protect all your water sources. From basic carbon filters to multi-stage systems, we’ll help you select the right filtration technology for your specific water challenges.

Poughkeepsie Water Softening
In the quest for clean, pure drinking water flowing from your faucets, one vital tool stands out: the water softener. This specialized filter employs plastic beads to extract the calcium and magnesium present in hard water. Removing these minerals can make a huge difference when it comes to your water, especially if you have problems with hard water.
Our water softening systems eliminate the minerals that cause scale buildup on fixtures, soap scum in tubs and showers, and damage to water-using appliances. You’ll notice immediate improvements in how water feels on your skin, how clothes come out of the wash, and how well soaps and detergents work throughout your home. We offer both salt-based and salt-free softening options to match your preferences and needs.

When it comes to efficiently eliminating contaminants, reverse osmosis (RO) takes center stage. This method is adept at eradicating 90% to 99% of impurities. The structure of a reverse osmosis filter is unique, endowing them with the capability to reject virtually all particles, bacteria, and organics. This technology is a staple in prominent water bottling plants, reinforcing its effectiveness in your home.
Our RO systems provide bottled-water quality directly from your tap. These sophisticated systems use a semi-permeable membrane to remove dissolved solids, heavy metals, and other contaminants that simpler filters miss. We offer both under-sink models for drinking water and whole-house systems for comprehensive protection.
Frequently Asked Water Treatment Questions
How do I know if I need water treatment in my Poughkeepsie home?
Signs you may need water treatment include discolored water, unpleasant taste or odor, visible scale on fixtures, spots on dishes, dry skin after showering, frequent plumbing repairs, and shortened appliance lifespan. If you’re concerned about your water quality, Folkes Brothers can perform a comprehensive water test to identify specific issues and recommend appropriate treatment solutions for your Poughkeepsie home.
What's the difference between water filtration and water purification?
Water filtration typically removes larger particles, sediment, and some chemicals through physical barriers, while water purification addresses a broader range of contaminants, including bacteria and viruses. In Poughkeepsie homes, filtration often targets chlorine taste and odor, while purification might address microbiological concerns. Folkes Brothers can help you understand which approach best addresses your specific water quality issues.
How often do water treatment systems need maintenance?
Water treatment systems in Poughkeepsie homes typically require regular maintenance to function properly. Filter replacements are usually needed every 3-12 months depending on your system and water conditions. Water softeners need salt replenishment every 1-2 months and cleaning every 1-2 years. Reverse osmosis systems require filter changes every 6-12 months and membrane replacement every 2-5 years. Folkes Brothers offers maintenance programs to keep your system running optimally.
Do I need both a water softener and a water filter?
This depends on your specific water issues in Poughkeepsie. Water softeners address hard water minerals (calcium and magnesium) that cause scale buildup, while filters target different contaminants affecting taste, odor, and health. Many households benefit from both: a softener to protect plumbing and appliances, and a filter to improve drinking water quality. Folkes Brothers can test your water and recommend the right combination for your needs.
How much does a whole-house water treatment system cost?
The cost of whole-house water treatment for Poughkeepsie homes varies based on your specific needs, water quality issues, and the size of your home. Basic filtration systems start around $1,000, while comprehensive solutions including softening and purification can range from $2,000-$5,000 installed. Folkes Brothers provides free consultations and transparent pricing to help you understand the investment required for your specific situation.
What are the advantages of reverse osmosis systems?
Reverse osmosis systems provide the most thorough water purification available for Poughkeepsie homes, removing up to 99% of dissolved solids, contaminants, and impurities. Benefits include superior-tasting drinking water, removal of potential harmful contaminants like lead and arsenic, elimination of odors, and crystal-clear ice cubes. While typically installed for drinking water at a single tap, whole-house RO systems are also available for comprehensive protection.
