Water Filtration Installer
in Hilliard, Ohio
Hilliard uses Columbus city water — but Columbus switched to chloramine disinfection, which requires specialized catalytic carbon filters that most competitors don't carry. Pure Aqua Columbus specs the right system for Hilliard's water, every time.
What's in Hilliard's Water?
Hilliard is served by Columbus Water Works, but there's a critical difference from other Columbus suburbs: Columbus uses chloramine (a chlorine-ammonia compound) rather than free chlorine for disinfection. This matters enormously when choosing a water filter.
⚠️ Why Chloramine Changes Everything
Standard activated carbon filters — the kind sold at big-box stores and by most competitors — cannot effectively remove chloramines. You need catalytic carbon media, which has a modified surface structure designed specifically for chloramine reduction. Pure Aqua Columbus uses catalytic carbon in all whole-house systems installed in Hilliard and Columbus-water areas.
Columbus Water Works uses chloramine (chlorine + ammonia) to disinfect. It's more stable than free chlorine but harder to remove — and requires catalytic carbon.
Columbus city water is consistently "very hard." Scale buildup shortens water heater life, clogs fixtures, and leaves white deposits on everything.
Ohio EPA has flagged PFAS "forever chemicals" in several Central Ohio water systems. Reverse osmosis is the gold-standard removal method.
Chloramine reacts with organic matter to form different disinfection byproducts than chlorine — including haloacetic acids. Proper filtration removes these.
Older distribution lines in Hilliard neighborhoods can introduce rust particles and sediment — visible in filters and on fixtures.
We're based in Central Ohio and typically schedule Hilliard installations within 3–5 business days of your free water test.
