The following article was written from information gathered from several agencies. California’s Water Districts are heavily regulated and do a great job working to keep us safe.  Every home is different, and no matter what water municipality you live in it’s a great idea to have your home water tested to really know what you are drinking.

 

Installing a whole house water purification system in your home can be beneficial for the entire family.

 

Did you know? “Chlorine, added as an inexpensive and effective drinking water disinfectant, is also a known poison to the body,” says Vanessa Lausch of filter manufacturer Aquasana (Scientific America, “Tapped Out”).

In the NRDC’s report “What’s on Tap,” they name two factors that are imminent threats to drinking water: old pipe systems and weak legislative protection for water purity.

 

Home water purification systems can provide clean water, free of harmful contaminants, as soon as you turn on the faucet.
