The Importance of Home Water Filtration and Purification

When you run the faucet on your kitchen or bathroom sink, you expect clean, safe water to flow out. But even if the water appears clear, it could still be hiding toxic chemicals that pose a threat to your family’s health and well-being. Many people don’t like the taste of tainted tap water and grasp the consequences of drinking it. That’s why half of all American households use either a home water treatment system (32 percent) or bottled water (18 percent) to guarantee they have clean drinking water on hand. 

If you want to protect your family’s well-being, you might first think about trying the bottled water plan. But of course, this gets pricey almost immediately. Plus, plastic water bottles that aren’t recycled end up contaminating the world’s waterways, causing harm to the environment and wiping out marine life. 

Setting up a whole-house water filtration system is more cost-effective and healthier for the environment than using so much bottled water. It can also provide healthier water much more easily because you can get it right from the tap. In addition, whole-house systems send purified water to your showers, tubs and plumbing appliances, enabling you to maximize the benefits anywhereyou use water in your home. 

Before installing a whole-house water filtration system, learn about what’s in your drinking water and how a Filtermax™ Superior Chemical Removal Filter can filter out hazardous contaminants. Then, get in touch with Eveready Service Experts to help you pick out and install the right water filter for you. 

What’s in Your Water Supply? 

Water quality may differ by location, but several of the most common contaminants include: 

  • Heavy metals 
  • Chlorine 
  • Lead 
  • Industrial chemicals 
  • Disinfection byproducts (DBPs) 

Learn what could be in your drinking water by entering your ZIP Code into the Environmental Working Group’s drinking water quality database. EWG data shows that above 80 percent of utility water supplies in North America at one point tested positive for carcinogenic chemicals, illustrating that legal water quality levels are not necessarily safe. 

Think About Installing a Filtermax Water Filtration System 

The Filtermax Superior Chemical Removal Filter filters out dirt, debris and harmful chemicals from your faucets, supplying you and your family with safe, clean water to enjoy. Here are the benefits of this system: 

  • Sediment filtration: Cloudiness is a sure sign of debris in your drinking water. Consisting of silt, sand, rust or clay, sediment naturally occurs and can accumulate in the water main soon after severe storms. While generally harmless, sediment makes your drinking water look and taste unpleasant. Filtermax provides sediment filtration to remove solids from your drinking water. 
  • Chlorine removal: Chlorine is the key to clean drinking water in urban environments like cities. Unfortunately, this disinfectant also adds dangerous chemical byproducts when it meets naturally occurring organic and inorganic materials in the water. Certain DPBs, such as trihalomethanes (THMs), are shown to cause cancer. Filtermax eliminates these carcinogens to protect your family. 
  • Safer, cleaner, better-tasting water: Ensuring safe tap water is the objective of adding putting in any water filtration solution. Besides being safer for your family to drink, filtered water also smells, tastes and looks better. No more constant metallic or musty smells. No more earthy or chlorine flavor. No more murky water swirling around your kitchen sink. Just clean-tasting, odorless, crystal-clear water. 
  • Filtered water for every tap: Toxic chemicals don’t just affect you when ingested—they also absorb into your skin as you shower and cling to your clothing and dishes when you wash them. That’s why a whole-house filtration system is so worthwhile because it guarantees clean water from every tap. 
  • No operating expenses or squandered water: Some whole-house filtration systems increase your electric bills. Others raise your water bills with automatic backwashing and flushing. Filtermax illustrates that healthy water doesn’t have to bring steeper utility costs. 
  • Flow-through distributor: Based on your plumbing system’s setup, you could need an upflow or downflow water filter. The Filtermax™ flow-through distributor includes both designs to accommodate your needs. 
  • 20-year manufacturer warranty: This is the best warranty in the water treatment equipment industry! With this coverage, you know your investment will keep providing clean, quality drinking water for many years to come.
