Let me ask you a simple question. Do you know how many toxic chemicals may be in your tap water? It’s been discovered that many public water sources contain over 2000 chemicals. The only way to remove these toxins is to install a tap water filter system.
You probably already had an idea about contaminants in your drinking water. What you need to understand now is the different methods of removing the dangerous chemicals.
You can either buy a carbon filter system or a reverse osmosis system. I strongly suggest you buy a carbon filtration system for the following reasons.
1) Reverse osmosis will not remove all of the contamination. Pesticides, pharmaceutical drugs, and other toxins will pass through this system.
2) Reverse osmosis removes the healthy minerals from your water. Studies have shown that drinking de-mineralized water can lead to free radicals in your body.
3) Reverse osmosis wastes water. You will lose 2 gallons for every 1 gallons of water.
4) Tap water carbon filters are much less expensive and easier to maintain.
5) Carbon filters will remove over 99% of the thousands of chemicals.
6) Carbon filtration will not remove any of the healthy minerals.
Some people have turned to bottled water for their homes. The problem is the containers the water comes in. Plastics break down when in contact with water and results in chemical contamination. Some of these chemicals increase your risk of getting cancer.
So, there you have it. A tap water filter that uses carbon filtration is the only way to go. Your next step? Get yourself a filtration system today so you will no longer be drinking and bathing in toxic chemicals.
