Whole House or Point of Use Water Treatment

Filtering the water in your home will:

  • Benefit your health
  • Increase peace of mind
  • Reduce the time you spend cleaning your house
  • Save you money

Have you been wondering if you should treat all the water coming into your house or just the water that you and your family drink?

If the water in your house is from a municipal water supply it typically contains chlorine, chloramines, fluoride and dissolved limerock. It also may contain pharmaceuticals, and some hundred plus chemicals the National Institute of Health recommends to test for removal, but are not.

Well water can look and taste great, but can have contaminants you cannot see, taste or smell such as pesticides, herbicides, heavy metals and bacteria. Water from other wells can have these contaminants. And odors such as rotten egg smell, or color such as iron or tannins.

Having a water test is the only way to know what is in it. With this information you can decide the contaminants you want to remove. Also, whether you want to treat all water going into your house(Whole House System). Or, just the water used for cooking and/or drinking (Point of Use System).

Whole House System

This removes chlorine and its dangerous carcinogenic by-products that are absorbed through lungs and skin in the shower or bathtub. This ensures a safe bath for you and your family.

Removal of a wide variety of contaminants such as dissolved limerock, iron, sulfur, by a Whole House System protects your home’s fixtures and water using appliances. The improved water greatly reduces the time you spend cleaning soap scum, scale build up and stains from bathtubs, showers and kitchen sinks. As an extra bonus, you will save money since you will use far less cleaning products and personal care products.

Point of Use System

Your kitchen sink will remove contaminants such as sodium, fluoride, pharmaceuticals and heavy metals from your drinking water. You will have an unlimited supply of pure, clean water and crystal clear ice cubes at your fingertips. Your system will pay for itself by eliminating the cost of bottled water.

Many homeowners decide to go with both a Whole House System and a Point of Use System to provide the most protection. Research has shown that a combination of both systems reduces greenhouse gases in an amount equivalent to getting one-and-a-third cars off the road for an entire year.

How Much is Bottled Water Costing You Per Year?

Most families and individuals are increasingly aware of the importance of healthy living. One of the best ways to do this is by hydrating every day. Therefore, many people choose bottled water as a convenient way to consume clean water. But, what if in the long run that’s wasting money, and harmful to ourselves and the environment?

Plastic Bottles used to Package Water is Not Only Wasteful, it is Also Detrimental to the Environment!

Many companies producing bottled water claim they are from partially recycled plastic. Yet, two million tons of used water bottles are currently occupying US landfills. This means 80% of water bottles are thrown away.

But, plastic water bottles become biodegradable, right? Yes, eventually, but this process takes about 1,000 years! With the ever-increasing manufacturing and consuming of plastic water bottles, what will our world look like 1,000 years from now?

Littering and landfills full of plastic isn’t the only environmental issue associated with plastic water bottles. For every liter manufacturers use to package a bottle of water they waste 3 liters. As a result, two-thirds of the water  manufacturers use they waste.

Now Let’s Take a Look at Your Wallet

According to Business Insider, one gallon of water purchased in 500 ml bottles, costs twice as much as a gallon of gasoline! A water bottle made from hard reusable plastic, stainless steel or glass encased in rubber can cost you from $5 to $22. The cost usually varies due to various features.

Depending on how much bottled water you purchase, switching to a reusable water bottle can save you 300 to 2,000 times more money over the course of one year. Want to see the savings for yourself?
