The 5 Best Ways to Make Your Tap Water Surpass Bottled Quality
In our previous article, we delved into the various issues that could be affecting the quality of your home's tap water and how installing a water filtration system could turn your tap water into a quality better than bottled water. Today, we're going to recommend the best water filtration systems to combat each of these issues and ensure you're getting the safest and tastiest water straight from your tap.
1. Carbon Filters for Chlorine
Chlorine, commonly used in water treatment plants, can affect the taste and smell of your tap water. Carbon filters are excellent for reducing the chlorine content in your water, leading to a significant improvement in the taste and smell of your water. Nothing does this quite like the Fleck Whole House Carbon Filter.
2. Reverse Osmosis System for Contaminants
From harmful chemicals to heavy metals, numerous unwanted contaminants could be lurking in your water. A reverse osmosis system effectively removes a wide range of contaminants to provide pure, safe drinking water. Have a look at the 4-Stage Reverse Osmosis System.
3. UV Water Purifiers for Microorganisms
If your water source is prone to bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms, a UV water purifier is an excellent solution. These purifiers use ultraviolet light to kill these harmful microorganisms, ensuring safe drinking water. We highly recommend the Viqua Ultra Violet Water Filter.
4. Water Softeners for Hard Water
Water Softeners are especially beneficial for households struggling with hard water, which is water with an unusually high concentration of minerals like calcium and magnesium. This hardness doesn't make the water undrinkable, but it can impart a specific taste or smell that many people find unpleasant. More so, these minerals can interfere with the effectiveness of soaps and detergents, leading to residue build-up on dishes and glasses, which can indirectly affect the taste of your water and beverages. By implementing a water softener system, you can ensure that the water from your taps is not just safer, but also more pleasant to drink and use in food preparation. Consider installing the Fleck Deluxe Water Softener System.
5. Iron Filters for Iron and Manganese
High levels of iron and manganese in your water can lead to stains on your appliances and a metallic taste in your water. An iron filter can effectively remove these elements. Check out the Fleck Katalox Light Advanced Iron Filtration System.
