Whole-Home Water Filtration in Lawrenceville and Gwinnett County
A whole-home filter treats every tap in the house. An under-sink filter treats the kitchen tap. 1st Place Plumbing installs and services both across Lawrenceville, Gwinnett County and metro Atlanta, and every whole-home system goes in with a bypass so a filter change never means shutting the water down. Call or text (770) 800-7563 or book online to schedule an estimate.
What we can help with
- Whole-home carbon and sediment filtration: One system on the main line handles taste, odor and grit for the whole house.
- Under-sink drinking water filters: A smaller system for the kitchen tap, installed with its own shut-off.
- Installation with a bypass: Valves either side let us change a filter without taking the water off.
- Filter changes and checkups: We handle the annual change and check the pressure while we're there.
- Filtration ahead of a tankless water heater: Treating the water first keeps scale off the heat exchanger.
What to expect
The whole-home filter goes where the water enters the house, after the main shut-off and the pressure reducing valve. We install it on new copper with a bypass loop, so the house keeps running when a filter is changed. We check your water pressure before we size anything, because a filter that's too small for the line costs you pressure at every fixture.
Different systems fix different problems. Carbon handles taste and odor, and sediment filters handle grit. Hard water scale is a separate problem, and we'll tell you what it takes. We ask what's bothering you about the water, explain what each system does and doesn't do, and put the choice in front of you in writing.

Frequently asked questions about water filtration
Is this the same as a water softener?
No. A softener removes hardness with salt, and a filter removes taste, odor, sediment and some chemicals. Some homes want both, and we'll explain the difference for your water.
How often do the filters need changing?
Most systems once a year, depending on the system and how much water the house uses. We tell you the interval for yours and how to check it.
Will it lower my water pressure?
Not when it's sized right. We measure your pressure first and size the filter to your line so you don't notice it at the tap.
