Catchment Homes
Many homes in Puna and rural east Hawaii collect rainwater in catchment tanks. That water needs filtration and disinfection before it's safe to drink, and the system needs regular maintenance.
What It Costs
That comes down to system type, flow rate and installation location. You get a written estimate before anything starts.
Water Softeners and Filtration FAQ
Is catchment water safe to drink?
Not without proper filtration and disinfection.
How often do UV bulbs need replacing?
Usually yearly.
Do I need a softener?
Testing tells us.
Does this need a county permit?
Water heaters, new lines and repipes usually do. The County of Hawaii Building Division handles plumbing permits through its EPIC online system, and your plumber files it and schedules the inspection.
