Pressure and water check
Incoming pressure and water quality are checked, because reverse osmosis needs adequate pressure and a suitable feed to perform.

Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration in Hermitage, TN
Reverse osmosis gives one tap in the home truly filtered drinking water, removing the dissolved solids, chlorine taste, and odours that a pitcher filter only partly addresses. It needs correct pressure, a drain connection, and filter changes on schedule to work, and we install and maintain it as a system, not as a box under the sink.

What to look for
Signs You Need Reverse Osmosis in Hermitage
Reverse osmosis gives one tap in the home truly filtered drinking water, removing the dissolved solids, chlorine taste, and odours that a pitcher filter only partly addresses. It needs correct pressure, a drain connection, and filter changes on schedule to work, and we install and maintain it as a system, not as a box under the sink.
- Chlorine taste or smell in drinking water
- Scale in the kettle, or spots on glassware from tap water
- Concerns about dissolved solids in drinking water
- Pitcher filter not keeping up, or filters constantly needing changes
- New kitchen, remodel, or new sink needing a drinking-water tap
- Reverse osmosis unit leaking, slow, or overdue for filters
If you have one of these symptoms, describe it when you call (615) 436-9486. The symptom, the fixture, and whether water is still running help us prioritise your visit and tell you what to shut off while you wait. If water is flooding, shut off the main valve first – see our emergency plumbing page for the steps.
How we fix it
What Our Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration Visit Includes
Every visit follows the same pattern: find the fault, show you what we found, price the options, and only then do the work. No part is replaced on a guess.
Clean under-sink installation
The unit, storage tank, drinking-water faucet, and drain connection are installed neatly, with shut-offs and access for filter changes.
Filter schedule in writing
Prefilters, membrane, and postfilter change intervals are left in writing, with the first change date noted.
Leak and taste testing
The system is leak-checked, flushed to the maker's instructions, and taste-tested at the tap before handover.
Hermitage homes
Why This Problem Shows Up in Hermitage
Reverse osmosis is a point-of-use system: it serves one drinking-water tap, usually in the kitchen, rather than the whole house. That distinction matters in Hermitage homes, where whole-house hardness and scale need a softener or entry filter, while drinking-water taste needs filtration at the tap. We explain which problem each system solves before quoting, so a homeowner does not buy a whole-house solution for a one-tap problem, or the reverse.
Homes across Hermitage and Davidson County vary widely in age and plumbing material, so the same symptom can have different causes in different streets. That is why diagnosis comes first: a slow drain in a newer home and a slow drain in an older home with mature trees in the yard are not the same job, and they should not get the same quote. We explain the cause we found in your home, in plain language, before recommending a repair.
| What we find | What it usually means | Our recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| Taste and chlorine concern, city water | Carbon plus reverse osmosis at one tap | Install |
| Whole-house taste concern | Point-of-entry filtration, not RO alone | Filter the entry |
| RO unit slow, filters overdue | Filter service, not replacement, usually | Service |
| RO unit leaking from fittings | Fittings or housing fault | Repair |
This table is a guide, not a quote. Your upfront price depends on the fault found, the parts needed, and access in your home. See our plumbing cost guide for typical estimate ranges, labelled as estimates only.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions: Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration
Does reverse osmosis remove everything from water?
It removes a very high proportion of dissolved solids, chlorine taste, and many contaminants, but no system removes everything. We explain what the system is rated for and what it is not, in plain language, before installation.
How often do reverse osmosis filters need changing?
Prefilters and postfilters need changing on schedule, commonly every 6 to 12 months, and the membrane less often. We leave the schedule in writing and note the first change date.
Will reverse osmosis slow my kitchen tap?
The drinking-water tap flows from a storage tank, so normal use is fine. Heavy continuous use can outrun the tank and membrane, which is why sizing and pressure are checked at installation.
Can reverse osmosis be added to any sink?
Most kitchens can take one, provided there is space under the sink, a drain connection, and adequate pressure. We check access and pressure before quoting.
