Advanced Water Systems is the only Authorized Kinetico Dealer for this area and proudly utilizes this equipment to fix any type of water problems. AWS provides water filtration and water treatment solutions to both residential and commercial clients. Our mission is to provide residents and businesses the best water quality available, both for the working water tasks and drinking water, by using the most efficient and reliable systems available. We customize the water treatment solution to meet your needs. Advanced Water Systems was started by Gene Smelik, Sr. in January of 1986. In the mid-70s, Gene purchased a Kinetico system for his farmhouse in the Cleveland, Ohio area that is still working and in use today -- roughly 40 years later! At the time, Gene recognized the need for a quality water system for Carteret County citizens -- one that uses less salt, has very low maintenance, is completely automatic and non-electric. Hence: Kinetico!

"Southern Plumbing of VA came two hours after the window quoted. The two plumbers were professional. They communicated the issue clearly but sought to overcharge me because it was emergency plumbing. There was a clog between the house and the street. They quoted me over $1800 to run a snake 50ft. I told them that was an outlandish price and he said he'd make a call. 30 seconds later he came back with $950. I'm not sure how he was able to drop the bill 50% that quickly if the original quote was accurate. It seemed like they were trying to take advantage of a bad situation. Even he made a comment "well you need your toilets". They arrived, did the work and had left in about 40 minutes."

We are a local plumbing company service if the Outer Banks of North Carolina. We are a smallChristian, family oriented, company rooted in the community dedicated to providing quantity affordable services.
"I wouldn't have chosen this company based on other's reviews, but our house came with an AHS warranty so decided to use that instead of my own time clearing a couple of backed up toilets and checking on water in the crawlspace. The kid that showed up was obviously not used to communicating with people and seemed to have very little experience. I told him the toilets will probably need augered so he did this and the toilets were able to flush. He expended little effort investigating the leak (that we knew was down in the crawlspace by a previous inspection) and his only response was "looks good". 24 hours later our toilet is backed up again after only having liquids in it and he refuses to come back out. I don't really think he has the experience to do much other than auger a toilet, which anyone can do but Lockhart is contracted out by AHS so people get stuck with them. Read the reviews and if you have the ability to pick your own plumber I would highly recommend it."

A whole-house water filtration system is ideal if you want all the water in your home to be filtered, improving water quality and protecting your plumbing. This system can enhance your home's value. If you only need filtered water for drinking or cooking, a point-of-use filter might be a suitable alternative. Each filtration option is designed to remove specific contaminants.
Maintaining your whole‑house water filtration system is essential for uninterrupted performance and clean water. The annual expense, which ranges between $50 and $300, covers filter replacements, complete system inspections, and any required repair work. Regular maintenance keeps the system operating at peak efficiency and guarantees the highest water quality for every home use.
Installing a whole‑house water filtration system is a streamlined process that a professional can complete in one day. Multistage systems require additional time to secure proper plumbing connections and calibrate the system accurately. In contrast, point‑of‑use filters are installed within a few hours, ensuring efficient and precise integration in your home.
Most whole-house filtration systems last 10 to 20 years with proper care. Reverse osmosis units typically serve 10 to 15 years, while water distillers can exceed two decades. Lifespan depends on build quality, water chemistry, and whether filters, lamps, or membranes are changed on schedule. Regular professional inspections help you catch minor issues before they shorten the system’s life. Budget for planned component replacements to reach the upper end of that range.
Fast clogging usually points to high sediment levels, heavy water use, or both. When more dirt and minerals flow through the system, filters load up sooner and performance drops. Schedule a water test to confirm what’s in your supply, add a sediment pre-filter if needed, and follow the manufacturer’s replacement timeline to keep water pressure and quality where they belong.
