Water Filtration for Murphy Homes, Plumbed to Code
We install whole-home filtration, water softeners, reverse osmosis and UV water treatment in Murphy and nearby towns like Wylie and Sachse. We test your water first, tell you what it shows, and recommend only what fixes a real problem. Then we install it with the drains, valves and connections code calls for.

Water Treatment We Install
Our work falls into four types, all done inside your house. Whole-home filtration clears chlorine taste and odor from every faucet. A water softener takes on scale on fixtures and in the water heater, when your test shows enough hardness to be worth it. Reverse osmosis puts a separate drinking water tap at the kitchen sink, and UV water treatment gives families who want an extra safeguard a disinfection stage.
Whole-Home Filtration
A filter on your main water line that takes out chlorine taste and smell at every tap and shower, installed to plumbing code.
Water Softeners
Softeners sized from your own hardness reading and plumbed in with a code-correct drain, an air gap and a bypass valve for easy service.
Reverse Osmosis
An under-sink reverse osmosis system for cleaner drinking and cooking water, plumbed to code with a proper air gap and drain line.
UV Water Treatment
A UV unit kills bacteria and viruses as water enters your home, with pre-filtration, a bypass and a proper electrical hookup done right.
What Changes the Price
Every home is plumbed a little differently, so we do not quote off a guess. The equipment is part of the cost. The rest depends on where it goes and what it takes to connect it properly.
After your water test, we give you a written quote by phone with each item listed. Standard professional installation included for qualifying homes, and we tell you plainly if yours qualifies.
- Type and size of system
- A drinking water unit under the kitchen sink takes less time and fewer parts than a filter on your main line. Whole-home systems are sized to your household's water use and the pipe size coming into the house.
- Where your main line comes in
- A main line that enters in the garage with open wall space is the easy case. A line buried in a finished wall or entering at an awkward spot takes more cutting and patch work.
- Drain and power access
- Softeners and reverse osmosis units need a drain with an air gap. UV systems need a nearby outlet. If neither is close, we have to run one, and that adds time.
- Pipe material
- PEX, copper and older galvanized pipe each connect differently. Metal pipe also needs a ground jumper when we cut into it.
- Inspection requirements
- If the work needs sign-off where you live, the fee and the inspection visit are part of the job. We tell you up front whether that applies.
- Upkeep over time
- Filter cartridges, RO membranes, UV lamps and softener salt all have a schedule. We list those ongoing costs so you see the full picture, not just install day.
About Water Filtration Murphy
We are a small water treatment company that works in Murphy and the towns around it. We put filters, softeners, reverse osmosis units and UV systems in homes, and we keep the work simple: find out what your water is doing, fix the part that matters to you, and install it right.
Most homes here run on treated city water that meets drinking water rules. So our pitch is not fear. It is better taste, less scale, and drinking water you feel good about. If a pitcher filter would do the job for you, we will tell you that too.
We care about the parts you never see. The air gap on the drain, the bypass valve, the ground jumper, the drain line routed so it does not kink. Those are what keep a system working and keep your home's plumbing safe for years.
- License
- Installations handled by subcontracted master-licensed plumbers
- Warranty
- 1-year workmanship warranty on installation-related defects; Manufacturer warranty: 5 years on valves, 10 years on tanks
How a Job Runs
Four steps, start to finish. You know what is happening at each one.
- 1
You call us
Let us know what you have noticed. Maybe the coffee tastes off, the glasses come out cloudy or the showerhead is crusting up. We pick a time to come by and test.
- 2
We test at your home
We check your water and look at where your main line comes in, where the drain is and what pipe you have. You get a free water report and our honest take on what, if anything, is worth doing.
- 3
You get a written quote
We go over the quote by phone, line by line. It notes any inspection, any drain or outlet work, and the upkeep schedule. You decide on your own time.
- 4
Install day and cleanup
The crew lays down floor protection, shuts off the water, and makes the connections with an air gap, bypass and ground jumper where needed. Most installs take part of a day. We test for leaks, show you the bypass, haul off packaging and leave the area clean.
How We Do the Work
Most water problems are simple to fix. What goes wrong is the install: a drain with no air gap, no bypass valve, a cut ground path. We do those parts right.
- 01
The test comes first
Before anyone mentions equipment, we test your water right at your home. Our free water report lays out the readings in everyday words. If your water already does what you want, we tell you that and leave it there.
- 02
Code explained, not hidden
We tell you what code asks for on your job and why. Drain lines get a proper air gap so wastewater can never siphon back into your clean water. If your city needs a permit for the work, we handle it and walk you through any inspection.
- 03
A bypass on every system
Every whole-home unit we put in gets a bypass valve. When it is time for a filter change or a repair, you turn a handle and your water stays on. No shutting down the house.
- 04
Grounding kept intact
In a lot of houses, the electrical system counts on metal water pipe to carry its ground. If we cut out a section to add a filter, we bridge the gap with a bonding jumper so that connection never breaks. Plenty of installers leave that part off.
- 05
No upsell on the softener
A softener is a real expense, with salt and upkeep after. We recommend one only when your test numbers back it up.

What People Ask Us
Is my city tap water safe to drink?
City water in this area is treated to meet drinking water standards, and we won't say otherwise to make a sale. Most people call us about taste, smell, spotty dishes or scale, and some simply want to trust what comes out of the kitchen tap. Testing your water shows where your home stands.
Why does my water have a pool smell or taste?
Utilities add disinfectant to keep water safe on its way through the pipes, and some people notice it. A whole-home carbon filter takes that taste and smell out at every tap and shower. If you only mind it in your drinking water, a reverse osmosis unit at the kitchen sink may be enough.
Do I need a water softener?
Not always. Hardness varies by house, so your test result settles it. With a low reading, the salt and upkeep would cost more than the scale. If it's high enough to coat fixtures and build up in your water heater, we show you the reading and talk through your options.
Does installing a water filter require a permit?
It depends on the job and the city. Cutting into the main line or adding a drain connection can fall under plumbing rules, and some cities want an inspection. We check what your address calls for, take care of the paperwork if it's needed, and tell you before any work starts.
Will my water be off for the whole day?
No. The water is off only while we cut in and make the connections, usually a short part of the visit. Every whole-home system gets a bypass valve, so future filter changes don't shut off your water.
What is covered by your warranty?
Our 1-year workmanship warranty covers installation-related defects. If a fitting we put in starts dripping or a connection fails because of our install, we own it. Give us a call and we'll come back and make it right.
How often do filters need to be changed?
It comes down to the system and how much water your household uses. Whole-home cartridges, RO filters and membranes, and UV lamps each have their own timeline. We write down your schedule on install day so there's no guesswork.
Find Out What Your Water Is Doing
We will come test it, explain what we find, and give you a written quote by phone if something is worth fixing. No pressure either way.
