Why Home Filtration of Tap Water is Better Than Bottled Water
Home filtration of tap water is an affordable alternative to buying bottled. It is also a safer alternative, in nearly all cases. Depending on the brand that an individual buys, the most likely package is a plastic bottle. Plastic bottle leach chemicals used to create the bottle. That means that in nearly 100% of all cases, there are chemicals that act like the hormone estrogen floating inside that bottle. That was enough to shock my son and make him start drinking our home filtered water, but you might need more convincing. You might also be unaware that of the many popular filters, they are just not that great.
A tiny percentage of companies are starting to use glass containers again, which I see as a good sign. It means that companies are listening. But, it also means that the price goes up. A glass bottle costs more than a plastic one. But, with effective home filtration of tap water stored in glass containers that some purification specialists supply, you have safe, pure water to carry anywhere for about a dime a gallon.
So, what’s the rest of the story? Why are some purifiers better than others?
The giants in the market are companies like PUR and Brita. They attract consumers with their low costs, but there are some things that they are not telling you.
The models that they sell in department stores only reduce chlorine and odor. Where my family lives, chlorine is a big problem. Before we decided that home filtration of tap water was a better solution, we bought bottled, because you simply cannot drink the water in our home. It tastes terrible and smells like it came straight from a swimming pool.
Trying to save money, as the family budget is tight; I bought a grocery store brand. We were surprised when it tasted and smelled just like our tap-water. You see, bottling companies are not required to use any purification method at all. The government is perfectly happy with the standards that they have set for our tap-water. They don’t require the companies to provide anything safer than, only equivalent to, what is currently flowing out of your faucet.
Most store brands contain publicly treated water that has not been run through additional purification processes. If you are going to buy bottled, always read the label, so that, at least, you know you are not buying your own tap-water in a plastic bottle. That just doesn’t make sense.
If you want something safer and better, a <a href=”http://www.home-water-filter-site.com”>home water filter</a> is the only alternative, but chlorine is not the only problem. In order to get a PUR or Brita filter that removes chlorination byproducts, you must order it online. They are not sold in stores. Chlorination byproducts are a major factor in the cancer epidemic that plagues our society. The price of a PUR or Brita filter might seem attractive at first, but the filters are only good for 100 gallons. We would go through that in a month!
When it comes to home filtration of tap water, the best buy is a system that lasts at least six months, depending on your water usage. So stop buying bottled water, and buy a home water purifier today.
