Whole-Home Water Filtration in Fort Lauderdale
Chlorine taste and smell, hard water spots on your dishes, scale building up on your faucets. If that sounds like your water, you are not alone in Fort Lauderdale.
Fort Lauderdale is famous for its yellow water problem. The city is spending hundreds of millions on a fix, and it still may not soften your water. A system at your main line handles it at the house, today.
We are Airgead Water Co, a local company based in Boca Raton that does one thing: whole-home water treatment. Every quote visit includes a free water test of your tap water.
One system, every tap in the house
Whole-Home Filtration and Softening
Our main system. A coconut shell carbon tank strips chlorine and chloramine for better taste and smell, and a salt softener takes out the hardness minerals that cause spots and scale. Assembled right here in the USA.
Installed: $2,975
Dual-Tank System for Bigger Homes
Two full tanks instead of one: a dedicated carbon tank plus a dedicated resin tank. Better filtration and softening with higher flow for larger homes.
Installed: $3,550 with RO
Tankless Reverse Osmosis
Our under-sink RO gives you clean, great-tasting drinking water right at the kitchen faucet, with an alkaline remineralizer for balanced pH. Often bundled with a whole-home system.
Installed: $799
Fort Lauderdale water, in plain terms
Fort Lauderdale draws its water from the Biscayne Aquifer and treats it at city plants, then disinfects it for the trip through miles of pipe, some of it decades old. The result is the complaint the city is known for: water that can run yellow or rusty looking, especially after main breaks, hydrant flushing, or heavy rain stirs up sediment and iron in older lines.
The city has a major plant upgrade underway to deal with it, but even the finished project is aimed at color and clarity, not hardness. Fort Lauderdale water still arrives hard, and the chlorine used to keep it safe is what you taste. Filtration plus softening at the main line fixes taste, spots, and scale at the same time, and a reverse osmosis unit at the sink takes drinking water the rest of the way.

What a customer said
"Hudson just installed our reverse osmosis water system. He did a great job, very professional, showed up on time, his price was very fair, and the install looks great. I highly recommend working with Hudson."

Fort Lauderdale water questions, answered
Why is Fort Lauderdale water yellow?
The color usually comes from iron and sediment in older city lines getting stirred up, plus natural organic material in the source water. It is a long running city issue with a major plant upgrade in progress. A whole-home carbon system at your main line catches sediment and improves color and taste before the water reaches your taps.
My water is only yellow sometimes. Do I still need a system?
Intermittent color is the most common pattern, and it is exactly what a main line system is built for. The same system also handles the everyday issues: chlorine taste, hard water spots, and scale.
How long does installation take?
A typical whole-home install takes 3 to 4 hours. We work at your main water line, usually in the garage, and program everything before we leave.
What does it cost?
Whole-home filtration and softening is $2,975 installed. Dual-tank packages run $3,550 to $3,950 installed. Reverse osmosis for the kitchen sink is $750 for the tank system or $799 for the tankless. See the full list on our pricing page.
