The Next Generation of Filtration: How New Systems Are Taking on Plastics

You fill up a glass from the tap expecting clean water – but what you don’t see might surprise you. Even treated water can contain microscopic particles, including plastic, heavy metals, and bacteria. Most older filtration systems simply weren’t built to catch these contaminants. That’s where next-generation water filtration systems come in.

At Hall & Sons Plumbing, we help homeowners protect their water with powerful, modern solutions that do more than just soften minerals or improve taste. These advanced systems are designed to filter out what older setups can’t, making your water safer, cleaner, and better for your home and family.

Why Filtering Plastics Matters

Microplastics are exactly what they sound like: tiny plastic particles that can end up in the water you drink, cook with, and give to your kids and pets. They come from everyday items like packaging, clothing, and even water bottles themselves. While research is ongoing, early studies suggest these particles may pose long-term health risks if consumed regularly.

Standard carbon filters or water softeners don’t catch them on their own. That’s why adding the new generation of whole-home water filtration systems is such a big deal. They not only improve the flavor, they also target the invisible stuff that matters.

What Makes These Systems Different

Not all water filters are created equal. These next-gen systems use a combination of reverse osmosis (RO) technology and specialized filtration media to remove a wide range of contaminants, including:

  • Microplastics, PFAS, PFOS
  • Heavy metals like lead and arsenic
  • Chlorine and other chemical disinfectants
  • Bacteria and parasites
  • Sediment and organic matter

They’re also designed with today’s homeowner in mind. A single unit can push out up to 700 gallons of filtered water per day, which is enough to supply multiple fixtures in your home, like the kitchen sink, fridge, ice maker, coffee machine, and more. Some models can even support up to four different points of use at once.

 

Benefits You’ll Notice Right Away

Adding a new water filtration system to your existing softener/carbon unit doesn’t just improve your water—it makes your home more efficient and convenient. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Cleaner, safer and better-tasting water at every faucet
  • Longer-lasting filters that don’t need constant replacement
  • The unit captures & store contaminants for proper disposal before they make it into your house
  • Better protection for your plumbing and appliances by reducing buildup and sediment
  • Confidence that your water is safer for your family

Plus, because these systems filter so thoroughly, you may even use less bottled water, which is better for your wallet and the planet.

If you’ve been relying on a basic pitcher filter or an old under-sink setup, it might be time to upgrade. Today’s water filtration systems are smarter, stronger, and more effective than ever, and Hall & Sons Plumbing is here to help you find the right fit for your home.
