Whole home filtration systems are called “Point of Entry” filters because they purify the water where it enters your home.

An APEX whole home filtration system acts as a firewall between water contamination and your family.

All sinks will have fresh-tasting drinking water. Eye, nose and skin irritation caused by chlorinated shower water will be a thing of the past! Beverages will taste better. Pets won’t turn their noses away from their water bowl.
