Expert Specialty Water Filters for Twin Cities Homeowners

Get Specialty Water Filters in the Twin Cities

Every home’s water is different - that’s why specialty filters matter. We start with a certified water test, then match you with a custom filtration solution that tackles exactly what’s in your water supply, for added protection and peace of mind.

A Filtration System for Every Need

Your home’s water filtration system should be designed to address the real-world needs having to do with your actual water supply. The Northern Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® team will begin by sending water samples to an EPA-certified lab for analysis. Then we design a purification system to match your home’s requirements.

Issues that arise in home water supply can include:

  • Chlorine.

  • Sulfur.

  • Arsenic.

  • PFAS.

  • Tannins.

  • Nitrates.

  • Lead.

Depending on your water profile, specialized filtration and treatment options can be implemented. Important: Only Brita PRO is certified as an integrated system. Products from competitors are typically certified at the component level. We test your water before and after system installation to ensure you are getting the results you desire for your home.

Call a local water expert at (763) 296-1844 and add the right specialty filter for extra peace of mind.

Signs You Need This Service

Don't wait for a failure. Watch for these critical warning signs that your plumbing system is struggling.

A test found one specific thing

Which is exactly when a targeted filter beats a general one.

A smell that general filtration missed

Sulphur in particular needs media chosen for it.

Staining despite a softener

Iron and manganese need their own treatment, not just ion exchange.

Concern about a named contaminant

Lead or PFAS are worth treating deliberately rather than hoping.

More than one problem at once

Common, and it means systems staged in sequence rather than one cartridge.

A general filter is not cutting it

An all-purpose cartridge handles nothing especially well.

Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as a specialty filter? +
Filtration aimed at one specific issue rather than general improvement. Chlorine, sulphur, iron, manganese, lead and PFAS each behave differently, and each has media suited to it. A single all-purpose filter handles none of them especially well.
How do you decide what I need? +
Every home’s water is different, so we start with a certified water test and design around the result. That is the whole point of a specialty system: it addresses what is actually there.
Can I treat more than one problem at once? +
Yes, and many homes need to. Systems are combined in sequence so each stage handles what it is best at, which is more effective than expecting one cartridge to do everything.
Do these go on the whole house or one tap? +
Either. Something affecting how the water feels in the shower belongs at the point it enters the house. Something that only matters for drinking can be handled at the sink for less. We will tell you which applies.
