It’s not often that homeowners stop to think about where their water comes from. When you turn the knob and the water starts flowing from your faucet, you barely give it a thought!
When we do dive into thoughts about water in our kitchens, it becomes clear - unlike some tap water- that the cleaner our water, the better.
Clean Up Your Water!
What’s in Your Tap?
Again, this is something that is easier not to think about. But when you realize that there are a lot of risks involved with drinking tap water, you’ll wish you’d gotten a filter a long time ago!
While many states have regulations about safe drinking water, there is still a possibility that the tap water in your home could be contaminated. Some of the harmful contaminants could be:
- Lead
- Chlorine
- Chloramine
- Cryptosporidium
Cryptosporidium is a parasite that can go undetected by a water treatment plant and make its way to your home. If consumed, this parasite could cause you some unpleasant hours in the bathroom.
Benefits of Filtration
Besides keeping your family safe from the toxins listed above, a filtration system will provide you an overall better water experience.
Filtered water will have a better odor and color and will taste better. A refreshing glass of your home’s water will no longer leave an unpleasant aftertaste in your mouth! Additionally, cooking with filtered water will make your food taste better!
Water purification could also help lower your bills. Hard water filled with minerals can increase water heater expenses by up to 28%.
