Giving Back to Our Community:  Working with Habitat for Humanity in Alachua County

Earlier this month, Best Water Solutions had the honor of partnering with Alachua Habitat for Humanity and Santa Fe College’s Perry Construction Institute to build a house for a family in need in High Springs.

Since our founding in 1982, Best Water Solutions has always been actively engaged with the North Central Florida community. Serving and giving back to the community that fostered our growth for over 35 years is incredibly important to us, and working with Alachua County Habitat for Humanity has given us an exciting opportunity to do just that.

Alachua Habitat for Humanity Housing Project

Every year, the Santa Fe College construction apprentices build a home with Habitat for Humanity, putting their vocational skills to work by installing the plumbing, electricity, air conditioning and heating systems in the housing project. As a member of the Plumbing Advisory Committee for the Perry Construction Institute, Best Water Solutions has worked with the plumbing apprentices in the past, providing hands-on training in the water treatment industry. So it was a perfect partnership opportunity to join the plumbing students on this construction project, providing them with technical guidance and training to install our donated water treatment equipment in the home.

Cooperative Installation

The Best Water Solutions representative on site for the day was our very own Service Manager, Roy Duenas. Roy worked with the plumbing apprentices installing pipes and water treatment equipment at the High Springs housing project. The apprentices, some of whom have been mentored by our certified service crew in the past, put learned skills and information to the test alongside Roy to properly install the equipment on the home.

We’re looking forward to seeing a well-deserved family move into the new home shortly and enjoy the Safe and Pure Water provided by our donated water system. We loved installing it in the house, and we trust that it gives the family many, many years of health and happiness!

Is Bottled Spring Water Really from a Pure Spring?

Hydration is a key component for staying healthy. Everyone knows drinking a minimum of 8 glasses of water a day is recommended. But, what is often not mentioned is the quality of the water you are drinking. With so many different types and brands of bottled water, it’s hard to know what is the best choice.

Spring Water

The big buzz word in the bottled water industry is spring water. Advertisers often show images of snow-capped mountains and streams on the water bottles. This makes you to believe this water is meant for you to drink straight from the Earth. In reality, spring water is from an underground source (not necessarily a spring). It’s often untreated and can contain any number of impurities and/or contaminants.

The Natural Resources Defense Council has a study that found contaminants such as coliform, arsenic and nitrates in bottled water supplies. Best case scenario: you are drinking glorified, expensive tap water when you purchase bottled spring water.

Knowing you are drinking pure and safe water is essential. Best Water Solutions has treated drinking water in North Central Florida since 1982. We have practical, proven, cost-effective technology options that will assure you and your family are only drinking contaminant free, safe water.

Investing in Your Investments & Using Your Tax Refund to Protect Your Home

With the average tax-refund reaching $3,000 the past few years, many of us have a big decision on our hands. That is:  How to best utilize these new funds?  Consider protection for what may be your greatest financial investment, your home.

Consider a Water Filtration System from Best Water Solutions.

Sometimes, it’s what we don’t see that can harm us most.  Hard water leaves stains on counter tops and faucets, despite constant cleaning.  Though, the real damage from hard water occurs over time, and severely affects the life of our costly home appliances.  When hard water is heated, the dissolved minerals in water form scale that covers the heating element in your hot water heater, dishwasher and other water using appliances. Over time, the scale on the element thickens, making it more difficult for the heating element to operate properly. Your appliances need to work harder to produce the same amount of hot water they did when they were new, drawing even more energy. Additionally, water pressure plummets as the volume of water is displaced by scale deposits.

With an investment in your home’s water system, you’re taking an active measure to extend the life of your appliances and save time in your daily cleaning routine.  Make the best decision by using your tax refund to invest in your greatest investment.
