WSP Whole House Lead Reduction System

If your water comes through old service lines or plumbing, it might carry lead that you can’t see, taste, or smell. The WSP Whole House Lead Reduction System helps reduce lead and other metals throughout your home, treating all the water at once for safer everyday use.

The problem you live with

You might not notice lead in your water right away because it doesn’t change the taste or smell. But if your plumbing or service lines are older, lead can dissolve into the water before it reaches your tap. That means lead could be coming through every faucet, every shower, every appliance. You may have spotted stubborn stains on sinks or toilets that don’t scrub away, or you might worry about what’s reaching your family’s drinking water and ice maker. Unlike rust or sediment, lead won’t settle out or show up as particles — it’s invisible but persistent.

Why it’s happening

Lead often gets into water from older pipes, fixtures, or service lines made with lead or lead solder. Over time, minerals and water chemistry can cause lead to dissolve slowly into the water flowing through those pipes. The surest way to confirm this is with a water test that measures dissolved lead levels. If lead shows up above recommended guidelines, it’s a clear sign your plumbing materials are the source.

What it’s costing you to leave it

Leaving lead in your water means every sip, shower, and load of laundry is potentially carrying this metal into your home. Lead can build up inside appliances, and while it won’t cause scale like hard minerals, it’s a persistent contaminant you don’t want around. You’ll spend time worrying about safe water for drinking, cooking, and even watering plants. Cleaning won’t remove lead, and it can’t be diluted by letting water run without wasting water or money.

How this system fixes it

This system works by passing all your water through a special filter that uses a chemical process called redox, performed by a copper-zinc alloy called KDF-55. This reaction helps bond dissolved lead and other heavy metals, removing them from the water. After that, a stage of catalytic coconut-shell carbon polishes the water, reducing chlorine, odors, and improving taste. Together, these media help reduce lead right where the water enters your home, protecting every tap.

What this system can handle

The WSP Whole House Lead Reduction System treats all the water coming into your home at full flow, so you don’t lose water pressure or have to install multiple filters. It works without electricity or backwash cycles to manage itself simply and reliably. This system is designed for steady, ongoing lead reduction as well as helping reduce chlorine and cysts that may cause taste or odor issues. It’s built to handle typical household water volumes and conditions before needing a media cartridge change, which you schedule based on your water use and quality.

What you actually get

With this system, you receive a high-quality pressure vessel covered by a lifetime warranty. The control valve and electronics come with the manufacturer's standard warranty. Included in the package is a bypass valve—so you can isolate the filter for servicing without shutting off water to your home—and 10 feet of discharge hose for the drain line. The exact setup is confirmed when we size the system for your water.

Is this the right size for you?

This whole-house system fits well for typical single-family homes with standard water usage and lead concerns from plumbing. If you have exceptionally high water use or unusual water chemistry, you might need a larger or more specialized system. Conversely, if only your drinking water taps need treatment, a point-of-use filter might be more appropriate. We can help you figure out what suits your situation.

Living with it

Maintenance involves changing the media cartridge on a schedule that matches your water use and quality—usually once a year or as your water test shows. The bypass valve means servicing is straightforward, with no interruption to your water supply. Regular checks and cartridge replacements keep the system working effectively without complicated adjustments or electricity.

What it won’t do

This system reduces dissolved lead and heavy metals, and also helps with chlorine and cysts. It does not soften hard water or remove sediment, iron, or bacteria. If those issues affect your water, you’ll need separate treatment systems designed specifically for them.
