Frequently Asked Questions
1-Year Risk-Free Guarantee
After 30 years of testing acidic water solutions, the data led us to this exact system. With a track record of 1,000+ successful homeowner installations (DIY or Licensed Plumbers), we have the evidence to offer a true risk-free guarantee based on results, rather than an empty marketing gimmick.
Most water filter companies offer standard "Money Back Guarantees" or return policies fully knowing that you aren't going to drain, package, and pay heavy freight costs to ship a 600lb wet tank back to them. It's an illusion of safety. Our guarantee requires zero return shipping.
If the system does not neutralize your pH as promised.
You'll work directly with the expert who designed your system to ensure it's set up correctly for your specific well chemistry.
If it still doesn't solve the problem, we refund you entirely.
No return shipping required.
Not sure if this is the perfect system? Don't guess. If you aren't 100% sure this is the correct size for your well, text me your water test or call me directly. I'll personally review it.
"I had well water with over 20 ppm ferrous and 7 ppm of ferric iron, plus manganese and some sulfur. Local water companies rejected me, said they couldn't help. I purchased two Fleck 2.5 cu. ft. 2510AIO iron filter tanks with Katalox-Light. Problem solved."
"New house, brass fittings on my Pex were all corroding. Tested the water, acidic at 5.5. Found Mid Atlantic Water YouTube videos which were very helpful, ordered the non-back washing 2.5. Easy install, water tests great now."
"Straight forward installation. In, out, and the drain. Ran a back wash cycle then put it online and it works GREAT. Cleaned out the iron and raised the pH to 7.5. Culligan tried to sell me something twice the price."
"Three contractors and two other suppliers reviewed my well report. Quotes ranged from $5,000 to $10,000. Then I found Mid Atlantic. Aidan reviewed the report and recommended a complete system. Same equipment, fraction of the cost, and the support was real."
"Easy, bullet-proof installation. No moving parts. Raised my pH from 6.8 to a perfect 7.6. I had previously installed the same unit in my daughter's water system. Her pH was 5.2. Following Aidan's videos, both installs went smoothly."
"Super easy install. Shouldn't have to service it for approximately 24-36 months based on my water usage. Tank is solid, fittings are clean, no leaks. Exactly what was advertised."
