Why Longmont Homes Need a HALO 5 Whole House Water Filter—And How It Goes Beyond Basic Filtration

Clean Water from Every Tap—Not Just the Kitchen

If you’re like most Colorado homeowners, you’ve probably thought about water filters for drinking water. But what about the water you use to shower, wash clothes, or brush your teeth? In Longmont and surrounding areas, such as Boulder, Larimer, and Weld counties, water quality varies, and hard water or contaminants can affect more than just taste.

If you’re considering a whole-house water filter, you’re not alone—and Blue Valley Heating and Cooling has a proven solution: the HALO 5 whole-house water filtration and conditioning system.

It’s More Than Taste—How a Whole-House Water Filter Benefits Your Health and Home

Installing a point-of-entry water filter gives you clean, conditioned water throughout your entire home—not just at one tap. Here’s how that makes a difference:

  • Healthier skin and hair – Say goodbye to dryness caused by chlorine and other chemicals.
  • Better for respiratory health – Chlorine vapors in shower steam can be irritating, especially for people with asthma or allergies.
  • Cleaner laundry and dishes – No more hard water spots or soap scum residue.
  • Improved appliance performance – Your dishwasher, washing machine, and water heater will last longer and run more efficiently.

Protecting Plumbing and Appliances from Long-Term Damage

Colorado is known for hard water, which contains high levels of calcium and magnesium. Over time, these minerals form scale deposits in your plumbing system and appliances.

Without a filter and conditioner in place, you may experience:

  • Clogged faucets and showerheads
  • Reduced water heater efficiency
  • Premature failure of water-using appliances
  • Extra spending on soap, detergents, and maintenance

With the HALO 5, you can prevent this damage and keep your systems running like new.

Featured Solution: The HALO 5 Whole House Water Filter and Conditioner

At Blue Valley, we recommend and install the HALO 5—a cutting-edge, five-stage filtration and conditioning system that treats all water entering your home.

What Makes HALO 5 Different?

It’s not just a filter—it’s a filtration + conditioning solution that’s salt-free, low-maintenance, and environmentally friendly.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Granular Activated Carbon (GAC): Removes chlorine, VOCs, pesticides, and industrial solvents.
  2. Catalytic Carbon: Targets chloramines and other hard-to-remove disinfectants.
  3. Filter-AG Plus: Filters out sediment, silt, and particulates.
  4. High-Density Garnet: Improves filtration performance and prevents clogging.
  5. HALO ION Inline Conditioner: Alters the structure of minerals to prevent scale buildup—without using salt or chemicals.

This means you get clean, soft-feeling water that’s safe for your family and plumbing, without the mess or environmental impact of traditional softeners.
