Contaminated Tap Water and How To Avoid It

Contaminated Tap Water and How To Avoid It

It's a sad fact that most of our household supply is now classed as contaminated tap water. Increasing dependency on new household and industrial chemicals will only make the situation worse. This article will reveal the many contaminants in your water and how to easily remove them.

Perhaps the worst offenders of contaminated tap water are chlorine and lead, and the municipals are directly responsible for both of these!

Chlorine as I am sure you know is still used, 100 years on, to disinfect the supply. This chemical is however very toxic and should be removed before use as it can significantly increase your chances of getting cancer.

It is a fact that the maximum level for use in swimming pools is lower than for tap water, believe it or not.

Lead levels are increasing due to many municipals switching to chloramine. This blend of ammonia and chlorine leaches out much more lead from the pipes and fittings because it stays in the water for much longer.

Lead is extremely toxic and responsible for an increased cancer risk and learning disorders in children.

Other main toxins in contaminated tap water include pesticides, pharmaceuticals, prescription drugs, THMs (chlorine by-product), VOCs and parasitic cysts.

Although the municipals tell you that everything is fine, it is clearly not. They base their allowable amounts on a healthy adult which puts children and the elderly in danger.

Little research has been carried out on the long term effects which is worrying health experts. This is because although the amounts of the toxins are relatively small, we all drink a lot of water and these toxins can build up over time, like a ticking bomb.

So how can you avoid it?

With the risk so great and the solution so simple, why take the chance?

Home water filtration is the easiest, most effective and most economical way to have safe, healthy water for you and your family.

The latest carbon block filters use granular carbon with ion exchange and sub micron filtering. The best ones can get rid of 99% of all the main chemicals, resulting in safe and pure water.

Look for a dual cartridge system as these are much more efficient and also independent testing will ensure the system actually does what it says it can!

Let contaminated household tap water become a thing of the past for you and your family by using the latest systems and restore your peace of mind.
