Water treatment for Hennepin County households

City water in Hennepin County arrives treated but hard, and old houses add their own chapter: aging galvanized lines contributing taste and sediment by the time water reaches the tap. Households increasingly want drinking water polished past municipal standard.

A local water specialist pairs right-sized softening with drinking-water filtration suited to old-house plumbing. Better showers, longer-lived appliances, and a tap the household actually prefers.
