subject: 3 Tips For Selecting The Best Whole House Water Purifier That Protects Your Family's Health [print this page] If you are looking to get a whole house water purifier, then there are some important factors you should consider to make sure it's up to the job. With so many contaminants in the supply today, only a handful out of the many available can protect you.
#1 Check For The Latest Cutting-Edge Filter
Most whole house water purifier systems on the market today cannot remove the harmful synthetic toxins like pesticides and pharmaceuticals. This is because they are molecularly smaller than water and pass through the filters.
Old technology systems like distillation and reverse osmosis manually remove the contaminants and let many harmful synthetic ones through and into your home.
The most effective type of filter is an activated carbon block type with ion exchange and sub micron filtering. These can physically and chemically remove the contaminants with the best achieving removal rates of 99%.
Essential trace minerals like calcium and magnesium are important to have in your drinking water as your body absorbs them better than from food.
Even the World Health Organization recommends that all drinking water should contain these to maintain proper health and well-being.
Distillation and reverse osmosis take out these minerals leaving you with distilled or demineralised water. While this is good for the industries these systems were designed for or your car battery, it is not good for humans!
The carbon block filter removes all the harmful toxins yet is able to leave the essential trace minerals intact to keep you healthy for now and in the future too.
#3 Always Ask For Product Certification
Beware of companies that claim certified components vs. a certified product. If the product itself is not certified, you have no way of knowing what you are getting.
In addition you can look for the Performance Data Sheet online or at the point of sale. This will show in detail exactly what the system removes and beware of any company that does not offer it freely.
If you follow these tips you will be able to confidently select the very best whole house water purifier and be safe in the knowledge that it will protect your family's health against the ever increasing number of harmful contaminants in the supply.
