For homes on municipal water along the Grand Strand, that typically means addressing chlorine or chloramine residual, taste and odor, and sediment.
ClearFlow starts every project with a free in-home water test. Your measured results — not a sales script — determine whether filtration fits your home and which configuration makes sense.
What This System Addresses
Chlorine & Chloramine
Municipal utilities disinfect with chlorine or chloramine, which remains in the water at your tap. Carbon-based filtration is the technology commonly used to address disinfectant residual, taste, and odor.
Disinfection Byproducts
Surface-water systems like GSWSA's can form TTHMs and HAAs when disinfectants react with organic matter. Activated carbon filtration is the technology commonly used to address these compounds.
Sediment & Particles
Aging distribution lines and well water can introduce sand, silt, and rust particles. Sediment pre-filtration protects downstream equipment and fixtures.
Taste & Odor
Chemical or earthy tastes and smells at the tap are among the most common complaints we test for. Filtration media are selected based on what your test identifies as the cause.
Tannins (Well Water)
Coastal plain wells often pick up tannins from decaying vegetation, tinting water yellow or brown. Specific media configurations address tannins when tests confirm them.
Appliance Protection
Treating water at the point of entry means your water heater, washer, and dishwasher receive conditioned water — relevant wherever sediment or scale is present.
Signs to Watch For
- Water tastes or smells like chlorine, especially in the morning
- Yellow or brown tint to water, particularly on well systems
- Visible particles or cloudiness when you fill a glass
- Musty or earthy odors from taps
- You're on GSWSA or another surface-water utility and want to know your DBP levels

Frequently asked questions
What does a whole house water filtration system do?
A whole house (point-of-entry) filtration system treats water where it enters your home, so every tap, shower, and appliance receives filtered water. Depending on the media used, these systems are designed to address chlorine, chloramine, taste and odor issues, sediment, and other concerns identified in your water test.
Do I need whole house filtration on municipal water in SC?
Municipal water in coastal SC is disinfected with chlorine or chloramine, and surface-water systems like GSWSA's can carry disinfection byproducts. Whether filtration makes sense for your home depends on your measured levels — that's what the free in-home test determines.
What's the difference between whole house filtration and a water softener?
Filtration targets chlorine, chloramine, taste, odor, and sediment. A softener targets hardness minerals (calcium and magnesium). Many area homes benefit from both; your test results show which applies to your water.
How much does a whole house filtration system cost?
Cost depends on your water chemistry, home size, and the system selected. ClearFlow provides a written quote specific to your home after your free water test — before any commitment.
What brand of systems does ClearFlow install?
ClearFlow installs Excalibur Water Systems equipment. Capabilities and specifications for each model are published by the manufacturer, and we match equipment to your test results.
