Services
In-Home Water Testing Our approach begins by testing the water before recommending filtration, softening, or another treatment option. We provide the residential water test at no charge and conduct it in your home. Common measurements include hardness, iron, pH, total dissolved solids, and chlorine, along with other potential contaminants. The visit typically takes 30 to 45 minutes, allowing us to explain the results clearly.
Reverse Osmosis Our reverse osmosis systems are designed to provide a higher level of filtration for household drinking water. By moving water through a specialized membrane, the system reduces a wide range of unwanted contaminants instead of simply capturing visible particles. We consider this service particularly useful at the kitchen sink, where treated water is regularly used for drinking and cooking.
Water Softeners We help homeowners reduce the effects of hard water by installing systems that lower the mineral content responsible for persistent buildup. Cleaner fixtures, improved soap lather, easier cleaning, and more comfortable showers are among the everyday improvements a softener can provide. At the same time, reducing mineral accumulation can help lessen wear on plumbing, appliances, and water heaters.
Whole House Water Filtration We help homeowners improve water quality throughout their property with whole-house water filtration. The service begins by testing the water inside the home to determine exactly what is present. From there, we provide an honest system recommendation and transparent pricing. Our certified team handles installation, while ongoing maintenance support remains available.
UV Water Purification Our approach to UV water purification centers on adding another line of defense for water quality. The technology relies on ultraviolet light to disrupt microorganisms, giving the treatment a specific focus on biological contaminants. Homeowners may consider this service when bacteria are a concern, particularly with well water or variable conditions. UV purification is also capable of filling a different role while working alongside other water treatment options.

Owner
At Frank Water Systems, we believe better water can make a real difference in the way you live at home. Water affects more than what comes out of the tap. It affects taste, comfort, daily routines, and the overall feel of your home. That is why we built this company around a simple idea: give people honest answers, quality work, and water solutions that genuinely improve everyday life.

We moved from the city to Lake Norman and our well water was terrible. Frank installed an iron filtration system and it's been perfect ever since.
