Article Surfing ArchiveWhole House Water Filters - Articles SurfingSo you know the benefits of purifying your drinking water and have already installed a filter for your kitchen tap. But what happens when you get thirsty upstairs and the closest water faucet is in the bathroom? This is where a whole house water filter system will benefit you. A whole house water filter produces purified water for all water sources in your house. Because it is a point-of-entry system, you will have purifed wter for every faucet, bathtub, even toilet in your home. Using filtered water to flush toilets and wash dishes may seem like a waste at first glance. However, reducing household chlorine chlorine could play a crucial role in the well being of you and your family. The Environmental Protection Agency states "Every household in America, on municipally treated water, has an elevated level of chloroform gas in the area, specifically in showering, washing dishes, washing clothes, and flushing toilets." Chloroform is a poisoness byproduct of chlorine that may cause damage to the nervous system and kidneys. Chlorine has also been linked to asthma. Several studies have linked chlorine inhalation from swimming or working in pools to severe asthma-like symptoms. Imagine the cost and hassle of installing a tap and shower filter in every water source in your home. A whole house water filter would more efficiently remove contaminants in the long run at the fraction of the cost. The initial installation will require a plumber. However, further maintenance (such as replacing filter cartridges) can be done on your own. When choosing a water filter, check that the product is officially certified. Compare different water filter systems to see how efffective they are at removing different contaminants. Make sure your whole house water filter does not remove the healthful minerals with the contaminants. Removing important substances can cause mineral deficiencies in the long run. Also check that product comes with a warranty. (Usually this is free.) The benefits of a whole house water filter far outweigh the costs in the long run. A whole house water filter will give you the peace of mind of a household water supply free from potentially dangerous contaminants. Besides good tasting and clear water for your entire household, you will be contributing to the long-term health of you and your family.
