Translating…
Unless you live in an area with an overabundance of pollution or less than perfect compliance with the EPA, you may not see the importance of home water filtration. Unfortunately, the standards currently in place are not particularly stringent. This isn’t due to a failing on the part of the government safety watchdogs so much as that of the national and local budget. There may be enough money to make sure what you drink and bathe with is safe, but not quite enough to ensure it is the highest quality possible. This is where you can make a difference yourself.
Problems
Why choose home water filtration? There are several reasons, the biggest of which is that your city’s supply is tested at the source, not at your home. While communities do everything they can to make sure the trip between is safe, impurities can be and are picked up on the ride. Your city’s supplier does not control these impurities, and they will end up coming out of your faucet. They include chemicals and various other pollutants that you would probably prefer stay in the pipes. This can lead to unpleasant odors, bad tasting drinks, and other readily apparent issues. The most insidious issues, however, could be those that are completely undetectable.
Benefits to Your Drinks
Unless you want to spend an endless fortune on bottled water, you need what comes out of your tap to be of high enough quality to drink. A good home water filtration system can ensure this is the case. You’ll get clean and clear water without needing that tastes fresh and delicious. Think a faucet-mounted device is getting the job done? It may be an improvement, but it is nothing compared to a device truly meant for long term home filtering. The purity of bottled water itself has been called into question; with a filtering system, you will not only save money by avoid the high cost of plastic bottles, you can rest assured in the quality of the beverage itself.
Improving Your Food
Of course, the benefits of water filtration extend further than a glass of refreshing beverage. It will also give you noticeable improvements in the taste of everything you prepare with it. This includes coffee, tea, preparing foods, and, of course, your ice. Also, you may find that your washing machine and dishwasher will perform better without the contaminants and impurities, potentially saving you money on detergents.
