5 Most Important Facts About Water Filtration System


5 Most Important Facts About Water Filtration SystemThe terms “water filtration” and “water purification” are used interchangeably, but they aren’t the same thing. Here’s the difference between a water filter and a water purifier:
  • A water filter removes sediment and unwanted substances (harmful chemicals, toxins) from our water. A filter improves taste and odor and reduces the level of many chemical contaminants.
  • A water purifier is a system that removes 90-95% of all contaminants in water. There are three purifier technologies: reverse-osmosis, deionization, and distillation.
We’re all lugging home gallons of bottled water, almost weekly, and even if you recycle, of every 167 bottles you “donate,” only 38 are actually recycled. The rest decorate our landfills. A Ban the Bottle campaign is making slow progress in this country, but it’s making progress. Eventually, we’ll have to consider greener alternatives to clean drinking water.
There are many benefits of a water filtration system.

Water Filtration Facts

  1. Bottled water isn’t working.1 It takes 3 liters of water for the cleaning and manufacturing process that yields 1 liter of drinking water. The bottling process releases “tons of carbon dioxide” into the air every year.
  2. At-home water-filtration water is cleaner than bottled water.2 The President’s Cancer panel recommends against drinking bottled water because of the contaminants that are still found in the water and the bottles’ carbon-based chemical composition (Bisphenol-A).
  3. Water filtration saves money.3 Tap water costs less than a penny a gallon; bottled water costs 300 times more. Tap water filtration only adds about 2 cents to the cost of tap water.
  4. Water filtration systems are low-maintenance.4 Point-of-use filters and water pitcher filters use replaceable carbon filters. Shower, laundry, dishwashing water utilizes as-is tap water, but your family’s drinking water is purified.
  5. Filtered water tastes better.5 It smells better, too.

What Is Better For You- Bottled Water Or Tap Water?

Everyone knows that drinking an adequate amount of water is critical to our survival, but should we worry about whether we get our water from a bottle with a nice label or from the kitchen sink? According to Mr. Benjamin Grumbles, the head of the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s water programs says “It’s an urban myth that bottled water is safer than tap water .” Many consumers admit to actually drinking both tap water and bottled water. For most people, if you have a filter at home, you probably could not distinguish the taste between the two. Nearly half of bottled water comes from a tap not the artisan springs and beautiful tropical waterfalls as we would like to imagine. In those cases, the water is filtered in many of the same ways as a home water filter works, except on a much larger scale. Chlorine and other contaminants are removed from the water prior to bottling. If you are still trying to decide between the two, there is no question that tap water is bett...
