In just about every part of America, your water goes through a water treatment plant before it gets to your home. However, not everything can be cleaned out of the water. In addition, it’s always possible that the water can get contaminated again on its way to your home. Even fluoride and chlorine, chemicals purposely added to the water for treatment, can be bad for your health. If you want to make sure your water is completely safe, consider investing in a water filtration system. At Stewart Plumbing, we’re the Memphis experts on installing a water filtration system in people’s homes.
Here are 4 reasons to get your home a water filtration system in Memphis:
Safer drinking water
The big draw of a water filtration system is having clean drinking water. Your home’s water may get treated by the plant, but not everything gets removed. Parasites, heavy metals, and water treatment chemicals can cause all sorts of health problems over time. A water filtration system can help get these out of your water, keeping you healthier. In addition, purified water also tastes better and has less pH.
Protect the environment and spend less
People aren’t very good about recycling their water bottles, and only a small percentage are actually recycled. The ones that make their way to landfills take about 450 years to completely decompose. With a home filtration system, you can use less bottled water, saving money and the environment. If you have water bottles, you can fill them with filtered tap water and reuse them.
No more hard water
Water filtrations systems work similarly to water softeners in that they both clear out the minerals in hard water. Hard water is a collection of minerals like magnesium and dissolved calcium can damage your various plumbing systems and water-using appliances. In addition, hard water can leave soap scum on your dishes, dry out your skin and hair, and make your clothes wear down quicker. Cleaning out your water with a water filtration system can alleviate all of those problems.
Prepare for disaster
It’s a hard truth to admit, but disaster can happen at any time. Many different things can happen that can pollute your drinking water, such as a burst sewer line. However, if you have a filtration system, you can help protect your water from contaminants.
