Water in Rochester
City of Rochester water comes from Hemlock and Canadice lakes and is treated with chlorine, so the most common complaints we hear in the city are chlorine taste and smell, plus scale on fixtures and water heaters in older homes.
What usually fixes it
Whole-house carbon filters and drinking water systems are the usual fix in the city. Many older homes also benefit from a softener to protect water heaters and dishwashers.
The only way to know for sure is a test. Ours is free, takes about 15 minutes at your kitchen tap, and checks hardness, iron, sulfur, chlorine, pH and dissolved solids. You get your results and one fixed price by phone, with no salesman in your kitchen.
| System | Typical installed cost |
|---|---|
| Water softener | $1,200 – $3,000 |
| Whole-house carbon filter | $1,100 – $3,500 |
| Iron / sulfur filter (wells) | $1,400 – $3,700 |
| Under-sink drinking water (RO) | $300 – $950 |
National typical ranges. Your exact price comes after the free test, in writing.
