How Does Water Filtration Benefit Me?
Water filters are a border that prevents debris and bacteria from passing through the water and inside your home. There are two steps of filtration that we will go over. The first step is physical filtration, and its role during filtration is clear impurities from the water that goes through your home. As the water runs through this process, it filters the debris and allows the clean water to pass through. But make sure you don’t forget, for this filter to continue to do its job, you must replace it at least every 6 months. The best way to know when you should replace this filter is by feeling the pressure in your water. So, if the pressure in your water begins to lower, you will know you need to replace your filter. It is that easy!
The second function is chemical filtration. This particular filtration process creates a chemical reaction as water runs through an activated carbon such as charcoal. In addition, chemical filtration helps push smaller particles like debris that can pass through the filter during physical filtration. Both filtration processes work together to cleanse your water and make it safe for your family and everyday use.
How Safe Is The Water In Your Home?
Now that you know more about filtration and its process, let’s explain in detail why you should have your home filtered. Especially the water you and your family drink daily. Let me give you an example: Have you ever had an iced tea with grains from the tea bags at the bottom of your drink, sometimes even floating in your glass? We would typically avoid it, right? Nobody wants that in their tea. So, it goes back to drinking your tap water without proper filtration. You don’t always see the sand or contamination, but it’s there. In other words, having your water filtered is crucial to keeping you, your family, your home, and your pets safe and healthy.
