Whole-House PFAS Water Filters in Londonderry and Southern NH
Table of Contents
PFAS, often called forever chemicals, don’t break down, which is how they’ve ended up in groundwater across Southern New Hampshire. NHDES notes that PFAS are more common at elevated levels in southern wells, and they have no taste, smell, or color, making them impossible to identify without professional testing.
At Mainline Plumbing, we install whole-house PFAS water filters where your water enters the house, so every tap, shower, and washing machine gets treated water. We start with a lab test and size the equipment based on your results, so you only buy the filtration your water needs.
PFAS Reduction Systems for Wells and Town Water
Every home’s water is different, so the setup we recommend follows your test results and how much water your household uses.
Whole-House PFAS Filtration
A whole-house PFAS filter treats water as it enters your plumbing, usually near the pressure tank. A properly sized PFAS system captures the chemicals before they reach your faucets, and our whole-house water filtration systems can combine that with other treatment your water needs.
Pre-Filtration and Companion Treatment
Sediment, iron, and hard water can clog PFAS systems and shorten their life. When your test shows any of those, we add a pre-filter or pair the setup with water softener services so the PFAS filter does its job for longer.
Filter Changes and Follow-Up Testing
PFAS systems don’t last forever, and NHDES stresses that upkeep matters for treatment to keep working. We set a replacement schedule when we install the equipment and recommend retesting to confirm your results.
Is a PFAS Filter Right for Your Home?
A filter makes sense when the lab numbers or your circumstances point that way. Here are some common signs it may be time to install a PFAS filter.
- A lab result above the limits: Any PFAS result over the federal or state limits is a reason to treat.
- An untested supply: Many private wells in the southern half of the state haven’t been checked, and PFAS can show up in town water too.
- A neighbor’s well tested positive: Contamination can spread through groundwater.
- A baby or young children in the home: Many families choose to treat even when levels are low.
- A home purchase with a private well: Testing before closing shows what you’re taking on.
NHDES’s PFAS Removal Rebate Program for Private Wells has offered eligible owners a one-time rebate of up to $5,000 for point-of-entry or point-of-use treatment. The rebate covers private wells only. Keep in mind that NHDES doesn’t endorse installers, and funding and eligibility can change, so confirm the current details on the program page before you buy.
What to Expect During PFAS Filter Installation
The visit is straightforward, and we explain each part as we go.
- Test your water: We collect a sample and send it to a lab, or we review recent results you already have.
- Review the options: We go over your numbers and recommend equipment that fits your water and budget.
- Install the filter: We connect the equipment at your point of entry and check that flow and pressure look right.
- Document and retest: You get your itemized invoice and equipment spec sheets, and a follow-up test confirms the PFAS levels dropped. Those same papers are what the state asks for if you apply for a rebate.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Only filters designed and certified for PFAS will effectively remove the forever chemicals. Basic pitcher and sediment filters usually don’t, which is why we match the equipment to your test results.
The price depends on your PFAS levels, your household’s water use, and what else is in your water that needs pre-treatment. Eligible private well owners may be able to offset part of the cost through the NHDES rebate, and we can discuss financing for the rest.
The only reliable check is a lab test of the treated water. We recommend testing after installation and again on a schedule that matches your filter’s replacement interval.
