Why commercial filtration is sized differently here in Boca Raton

Frequently Asked Questions

What does City of Boca Raton Utility Services Department actually put in my Boca Raton tap water?

City of Boca Raton Utility Services Department finishes water with free chlorine secondary disinfection at a running annual average of 2.9 mg/L. The most recent CCR (covering 2024) lists TTHM at 47.83 ppb and HAA5 at 29.75 ppb. Hardness is not on the CCR template, our on-site test typically reads 6 to 10 grains per gallon for Boca Raton homes.

Is Boca Raton water actually hard, and does it need softening?

Boca Raton finished water typically tests 6 to 10 grains per gallon, which is moderately soft to moderately hard on the water-treatment scale. That level rarely produces visible scaling, but appliance manufacturers still recommend treatment above 3 to 5 gpg to protect tankless water heaters and high-end fixtures.

What commercial sites in Boca Raton benefit most from point-of-entry filtration?

In Boca Raton, the highest-impact sites are restaurants and coffee shops (scale and chlorine taste in beverages), medical and dental practices (autoclave and instrument-rinse water), salons (hair and skin response to 6 to 10 grains per gallon hardness), and multifamily buildings (sediment and chlorine complaints from tenants).

Will commercial filtration in Boca Raton interfere with my equipment warranty?

Generally no, and often the opposite. Major dishwasher, ice maker, and steam-oven manufacturers specify maximum hardness, chlorine, and TDS values; treated water keeps you inside those warranty thresholds. We will document specs against your equipment manuals before scheduling install.
