At Gillette Services - Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning, we understand that having access to clean, filtered water is not a luxury but a necessity. As a locally owned and family-operated company committed to putting our customers and employees first, we bring the same dedication to water filtration that we bring to every service we offer.

Installing a quality water filter is one of the most effective ways to protect your household.
Whether you live in Mapleton, Orem, Payson, Provo, Salem, Santaquin, Spanish Fork & Springville, UT or anywhere throughout the Spanish Fork, UT & the surrounding areas, water quality can vary significantly based on your source, the age of your plumbing infrastructure, and local environmental conditions. We work closely with homeowners to assess their specific water quality concerns and recommend filtration solutions tailored to their needs. Our fast response times and personalized service mean you will never feel like just another number when you call us for help with your water.
Types of Water Filtration Systems We Work With
Not all water filters are created equal, and understanding the differences between filtration technologies is key to choosing the right system. Whole-house filtration systems treat water at the point of entry, ensuring that every faucet, showerhead, and appliance in your home receives filtered water. These systems are ideal for addressing widespread issues like hard water, chlorine taste, or sediment. Point-of-use systems, on the other hand, are installed at specific fixtures such as kitchen sinks and are designed to provide highly purified drinking water.
There are several primary filtration technologies available, each suited to different contaminants and water conditions:
- Activated Carbon Filters – These use porous carbon material to absorb chlorine, volatile organic compounds, and unpleasant tastes and odors from your water supply
- Reverse Osmosis Systems – These force water through a semipermeable membrane that removes up to 99% of dissolved salts, bacteria, and heavy metals including lead and arsenic
- Sediment Filters – These capture particulate matter like sand, rust, and silt, protecting both your plumbing and downstream filtration components
- UV Purification Systems – These use ultraviolet light to neutralize bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms without adding chemicals to your water
We help homeowners in Mapleton, Orem, Payson, Provo, Salem, Santaquin, Spanish Fork & Springville, UT evaluate which combination of technologies makes the most sense based on professional water quality assessments and their specific concerns. As “Your Homegrown Service Pros,” we take the time to explain every option so you can make an informed decision.
The Installation and Maintenance Process
Proper installation is critical to the performance of any water filtration system. Our process begins with a thorough evaluation of your existing plumbing, water pressure, and usage patterns. We then identify the optimal placement for your filtration system, whether that involves integrating a whole-house unit near your main water line or mounting a point-of-use system beneath your kitchen sink. Every installation is completed with attention to code compliance and long-term reliability.
Ongoing maintenance is equally important. Most filtration systems require periodic filter cartridge replacements, membrane cleaning, or UV lamp changes to continue operating at peak efficiency. Neglecting maintenance can actually worsen water quality by allowing trapped contaminants to re-enter your supply. We take great pride in serving our community, and that means helping you keep your system running properly for years to come. We offer personalized maintenance schedules based on your system type and household water consumption.
Why Water Filtration Matters More Than Ever
The water filtration industry has grown significantly in recent years, with the global residential water treatment market projected to exceed $20 billion by 2027. This growth reflects increasing consumer awareness about waterborne contaminants and aging municipal infrastructure. In many communities served by older pipe systems, lead, copper, and other metals can leach into drinking water at levels that exceed federal guidelines.
Beyond health concerns, filtered water also extends the life of plumbing fixtures, water heaters, and appliances by reducing scale buildup and corrosive minerals. Homeowners frequently notice improvements in the taste and clarity of their water immediately after installation, along with softer skin and hair from bathing in filtered water.
Our community initiatives, including providing free furnace installations to families in need, contributing to the HVAC installation for the St. Jude Dream Home, and supporting the Children’s Justice Center’s new facility, reflect our deeper commitment to the well-being of the families we serve. Clean water is fundamental to that mission.
