When temperatures start to drop and families spend more time indoors, clean water becomes more important than ever. From cooking hearty meals to brewing that first cup of coffee on a chilly morning, your household depends on safe, great-tasting water.
Unfortunately, seasonal changes can impact water quality in Louisiana. Sediment buildup, minerals, and chlorine from municipal systems often lead to cloudy or unpleasant-tasting water. That’s why now is the perfect time to invest in professional water filtration services in Louisiana.
At Mark Johnson Plumbing, we help homeowners enjoy cleaner, healthier water year-round with customized filtration systems. Here’s how you can improve your home’s water this fall.
1. Test Your Water for Contaminants
Start by finding out what’s in your water. Louisiana’s water often contains minerals like calcium and magnesium (causing hard water), as well as chlorine, iron, and sediment from old pipes.
Our team can perform a professional water test to identify these impurities and recommend the best filtration solution for your household’s specific needs.
2. Install a Whole-House Water Filtration System
Unlike small sink filters, a whole-house system cleans all the water entering your home—from the kitchen sink to the shower and laundry.
Whole-home filters can remove:
- Chlorine and chemical tastes
- Rust and sediment
- Bacteria and organic matter
- Hard minerals that damage pipes and appliances
It’s an easy, long-term way to protect both your health and your plumbing system.
3. Maintain Your Water Heater and Appliances
Hard water minerals can shorten the life of your water heater and leave limescale buildup in appliances. Flushing your water heater once a year and adding a water softener can prevent this damage while improving efficiency.
Cleaner water = fewer plumbing repairs and longer-lasting fixtures.
4. Replace Faucet Aerators and Showerheads
Sediment and mineral deposits can build up in faucet screens, reducing flow and adding contaminants to your water. Removing and cleaning these aerators (or replacing them entirely) helps keep water clean and pressure strong throughout your home.
5. Schedule Regular Water Filtration Maintenance
Even the best filtration systems need upkeep. Changing filters on schedule ensures your system keeps performing effectively. When you choose Mark Johnson Plumbing, our technicians handle the maintenance, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

A: Most systems require filter changes every 6–12 months, depending on usage and water quality.
