Many homeowners use whole-house water filtration systems to improve the taste and quality of their drinking water. However, a whole-house water filtration system has many other benefits too. We explore these benefits in detail below.
1. Provides Better Quality Water
A home water filtration system provides pure water for:
- Drinking
- Cooking
- Bathing
- Cleaning
- Laundry
- Washing fruits and vegetables
By removing e-coli, cryptosporidium, and more from your drinking water, water filtration systems reduce your risk of gastrointestinal diseases by over 80%
2. Removes Contaminants, Odors, and Bad Tastes
Have you ever taken a sip of your tap water only to have it smell fishy, or taste like chlorine? Foul-smelling or bad-tasting water may contain impurities like:
- Bacteria
- Chlorine
- Pesticides
A water filtration system will remove these impurities, delivering healthier, better-tasting water.
3. Better For The Environment
In the United States, we use about 40 billion plastic bottles each month. A whole-house water filtration system greatly reduces your dependence on plastic bottles. This helps the environment and can save you a lot of money in the long run.
4. Extends The Lifespan Of Your Plumbing and Appliances
Unfiltered water contains sediment, chlorine, heavy metals, and chemicals. These can build up in your pipes and damage your appliances. Installing a whole-house water filter with a sediment filter will extend the lifespan of your pipes and appliances. You will also be less likely to require repairs.
5. Removes Heavy Metals But Keeps The Good Minerals
Water filtration systems keep out heavy metals and contaminants while preserving beneficial minerals.
6. Gives Peace of Mind
If you rely on your local water supply for your water, you could run into some problems. For example, what happens if the local water supply becomes polluted? A water filtration system provides peace of mind in these situations.
7. Prevents Corrosion
If your water is discolored, you might have corrosion in your pipes. A whole-house water filtration system will prevent corrosion, protecting you from its detrimental effects.
