Written from the perspective of a 20-year residential water treatment expert

After two decades in the residential water filtration industry, I’ve seen just about everything that can happen to a home’s water. From well systems producing orange-stained sinks to city water saturated with chlorine, to families struggling with hard water that damages appliances—you name it, I’ve fixed it.

And after all these years, one thing has become crystal clear:

When it comes to your home’s water, choosing a dedicated water filtration specialist—someone who lives and breathes water treatment every day—makes all the difference.

Sure, you can buy filters from a big-box store, hire a general handyman, or even have a plumbing company install a system they “also” offer. But there’s a reason homeowners who want long-term solutions, reliable support, and safe, great-tasting water always end up calling a true specialist.

Let me explain why.


The Difference Between “Also Does Water” and “Lives Water”

Think of your home’s water like your personal health.

If you wake up with a mild cold, your general practitioner is perfect—they’re trained in a broad range of issues and can point you in the right direction.

But if you tear a ligament in your knee, who do you want to see?

A general doctor who sees thousands of unrelated cases a year…
or an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in knees every single day?

The answer is obvious. When the stakes matter, you choose the specialist.

Water filtration is no different.

Many companies also offer water filtration. It sits somewhere on their long list of services between toilet replacements and garbage disposal installs. There’s nothing wrong with that—it just means their expertise is broad, not deep.

But water filtration—done correctly—is part science, part engineering, part diagnostics, and part craftsmanship.

A specialist focuses on:

  • Understanding regional water chemistry
  • Conducting proper testing & interpreting results
  • Recommending systems that match your home’s plumbing and water usage
  • Installing equipment the right way (the first time)
  • Maintaining, servicing, and supporting systems for years
  • Knowing what equipment simply doesn’t work in your local water

At Artisanal Water Solutions, this is our core competency—not a side offering. And that changes everything.


Why Homeowners Benefit From Choosing a Water Filtration Specialist

1. Accurate, Thorough Water Testing

Without the right testing, any recommendation is just a guess.

A specialist doesn’t assume what’s in your water—we start with solid in-home testing, then use our expertise to determine whether additional lab analysis is necessary. Since testing for every possible contaminant would cost more than the solution itself, guidance from someone who understands water chemistry is essential. We help you focus on the tests that matter so your decisions are informed, accurate, and cost-effective.

2. Custom-Tailored Solutions (Not One-Size-Fits-All Kits)

Your home’s water is unique.
Your solution should be too.

We design systems based on:

  • Water quality
  • Home size
  • Flow rate
  • Number of bathrooms
  • Family size and lifestyle

A big-box system simply can’t account for all of that.

3. Proper Installation That Prevents Problems

After 30 years, I’ve lost count of the homes I’ve visited where a poorly installed system caused:

  • Leaks
  • Pressure issues
  • Premature equipment failure
  • Ineffective filtration

A specialist installs systems every single day—so the job is done cleanly, correctly, and safely.

4. Long-Term Support (Because Water Needs Change)

Seasonal shifts, construction, municipal changes, and even new appliances can impact your water. Specialists don’t disappear after installation—we stay with you.

5. Higher-Quality Equipment

We don’t choose equipment because it’s cheap or marketed well.
We choose it because it works, lasts, and delivers the water you deserve.


A Quick Example: The “Lump on Your Skin” Scenario

Imagine you notice a small lump on your arm.

A general doctor can take a look and offer opinions, but if it looks even slightly suspicious, what do they do?

They send you to a dermatologist, a specialist who has:

  • Seen thousands of similar cases
  • Studied this exact issue
  • The tools to treat it correctly
  • The experience to know what really works

Water filtration works the same way.

A general company may see your issue once in a while.
A specialist sees it every day—and knows exactly how to fix it.


Why Homeowners Trust Specialists More Today Than Ever

Water quality concerns are rising across the country. More people are asking:

  • “Is my water safe?”
  • “What’s really in my well?”
  • “Why does my water smell like chlorine?”
  • “Is hard water damaging my home?”

A specialist doesn’t just install equipment—we educate, guide, and protect your home’s water long-term.

Because when water is your entire business—not just a line item—every recommendation matters.


Final Thoughts: When Water Matters, Choose Expertise

After 20+ years, I’ve learned that homeowners want three things from their water:

✔ Clean
✔ Safe
✔ Reliable

And that requires more than guesswork or a general service approach.

It requires a dedicated, experienced water filtration specialist—a company whose sole focus is understanding water, improving water, and protecting your home from the problems water can cause.

If you want your water done right, choose the specialist at Artisanal Water Solutions.
Your home—and your family—will thank you for it.
