Water Filtration

The Ralph Nader Institute estimates that there are up to 2100 toxic contaminants in our drinking water. That’s a good reason to drink purified water. But why would you consider using whole house water filtration systems?

Here’s 4 good reasons to use whole house water filters.

1. Believe it or not water contaminants can enter your body through your lungs, not just through your stomach by drinking contaminated water. How? Because contaminants in our water can vaporize in our house through the actions of things like showers and dishwashers to form gasses like chloroform and other VOCs (volatile organic compounds).

The US EPA says “Every home has an elevated level of chloroform gas present due to the vaporization of chlorine from tap and shower water.”

Whole house water filtration eliminates this risk.

2. Contaminants in our water can enter your body through your skin as well as your lungs and stomach. Showering in water contaminated with “up to 2100 toxins” means that any of these can enter through your skin. After all, what does an anti smoking patch on your arm do but deliver a chemical into your body through your skin?

3. Whole house water filtration systems help with your dishwashing if you use a dishwasher. You will find less scum and soap remnants on your dishes and you will use less detergent because the detergent you use works more efficiently. Dishes will be cleaner.

4. Washing clothes in filtered water produces much cleaner, healthier and better smelling clothes. Did you know, for example, that clothes washed in water full of chlorine absorb the chlorine and so you are wearing chlorine next to your skin?

So as you can see there are good reasons to consider using a whole house water filtration system. As well as drinking clean water you will notice a wide range of other benefits from using purified and filtered water in your home.
