A whole-home Puronics system from Pristine Water Networks costs $7,999 installed. I'm publishing that number upfront so you have a real figure to work with before we talk.

The holistic family math

If you're already spending $60 to $150 a month on EWG-rated bath products, bottled water, and specialty soap, you're running a water budget. The question is whether a one-time system purchase with a fixed financing term makes more sense than that rolling spend.

I'm not quoting specific monthly payment amounts or APR figures in this post because Regulation Z (12 CFR 1026.24) requires a full Truth in Lending disclosure block whenever those trigger terms appear. The complete disclosure with all three financing paths, specific monthly amounts, APR, and terms is on our /financing page.

What the installed price includes

The $7,999 covers the Puronics unit, all hardware, my 4-hour owner-operated install, and the post-install retest at 2 to 4 weeks.

How to get started

A free water test comes first. Call (843) 302-5720 or drop a bottle by the shop. I'll test your water while you watch and leave you a printout with your numbers. The financing conversation is separate and optional. All financing subject to credit approval.
