193 verified water filtration businesses across 81 Florida cities. Contact pros directly — no middlemen, no lead fees.

Florida has some of the hardest water in the United States — 200–400 mg/L of calcium carbonate in most metros, plus the chlorine taste and sulfur smell that ruins showers and eats water heaters. The water filtration companies below install whole-home softeners, reverse-osmosis drinking systems, iron and sulfur filters, and well-water treatment. Many offer free on-site water testing before quoting. See verified reviews and contact pros directly below.

Frequently Asked Questions

How hard is Florida tap water?▾
Florida water hardness ranges from 150 mg/L on the east coast to 400+ mg/L inland and in the Tampa Bay area. The EPA considers anything over 180 mg/L "very hard." Signs you need a softener: white scale on fixtures, stiff laundry, spotted dishes, and water heaters failing in 6-8 years instead of 12-15.
How much does a water softener cost in Florida?▾
A quality whole-home water softener installed by a licensed plumber runs $1,800–$3,500 in Florida. Systems with carbon pre-filters for chlorine removal add $500–$900. Reverse-osmosis drinking systems at the kitchen sink add another $350–$750. Beware "free install" door-to-door quotes over $6,000 — that's typically 2-3× market rate.
Do I need a water softener AND a reverse osmosis system?▾
They solve different problems. A softener removes hardness (scale) and is a whole-home system. RO removes dissolved solids like sodium, fluoride, and lead, but only at one faucet (usually the kitchen sink). Most Florida homes with well water or very hard city water benefit from both.
Is Florida well water safe to drink without filtration?▾
Not usually. Florida well water commonly contains iron, hydrogen sulfide (sulfur / rotten-egg smell), bacteria, and sometimes arsenic. The Florida DOH strongly recommends annual testing and almost all well-water homes need a multi-stage treatment system: sediment filter, iron/sulfur filter, softener, and optional UV disinfection.
How long do water softeners last in Florida?▾
A properly maintained softener lasts 12–15 years in Florida — shorter than cooler climates because our hardness load is higher. Add annual resin-bed cleanings and quarterly salt checks to maximize lifespan. Tankless hybrid systems last 15–20 years but cost 40-50% more upfront.
