Contaminants Frequently Found in Drinking Water
You’ve doubtlessly seen the news stories about contaminants in drinking water. The lead levels in Flint, Michigan for instance. But you might not realize that these impurities can strike anytime, anywhere—even in Monroe. While the health risks involved with heavy metals and bacteria only present themselves in cases of long exposure, it’s safe to say you don’t want to be drinking heavy metals or E. coli.
Below are a few things that a water filtration or purification system can keep at bay:
The symptoms of exposure to some of these contaminants vary and include damage to the brain, liver, circulatory system, and kidney damage.
Signs You Need a Water Filtration or Purification System in Monroe
Not all water problems are as easy to spot as iron or acidity issues. They can often be subtle and insidious, something you get used to after long-term exposure. For these issues, water testing is often the only way to spot a problem. To help determine if you have a need for our water filtration and purification services, keep an eye out for:
- Bathtub and sink staining
- Sediment buildup on faucets and pipes
- Dingy whites
- Spots on glassware
- The smell of chlorine
- Tangled, coarse hair
- Dry skin
- Cloudy tap water
- Discolored or brown water
- A noticeable smell or taste difference
Potential Water Filtration Solutions
Solution 1 - Whole-House Water Filtration
Though some companies might recommend a drinking water filtration system, we don’t think that’s enough. You don’t just drink water. You also bathe and cook with it. That’s why we recommend installing a whole-house water filtration system in the Monroe and West Monroe area.
The benefits of whole house water filters include:
- A longer life for your faucets, pipes, and fixtures
- Healthier and less-wrinkled skin
- Purified water when and where you want it
- Improved food and beverage flavor
- Eliminates parasites like giardia
- Less money wasted on bottled water
- Reduction in chlorine and carbon-based compounds
It should be noted, however, that whole-home filters don’t eliminate scale buildup or rust issues. For those, you’ll need a water softener. Water filtration mediums vary and include coconut shells, carbon, and sand.
Solution 2 - Water Purification (Reverse Osmosis)
A bit more complicated than a water filter, reverse osmosis systems are a multi-process device intended for water purification. These systems direct water through an initial filter to remove chlorine and particulate matter. Then, it flows through a semi-permeable membrane to remove any solid particulates. These waste products are then flushed down a drain while the clean water continues into a filter tank. Lastly, an activated carbon filter takes care of any odor or smell issues.
The advantages of water purification systems include:
- Gives you constant access to purified water
- Eliminates a wider variety of solids than simple filters
- Improves the flavor of beverages and food
- Great for aquariums and those with allergies
- Provides almost total chlorine elimination
- Helps your pipes, faucets, and fixtures last longer
The main drawback of reverse osmosis units is their price. But they can also be easily ported from one home to another. This ensures you get the most out of your plumbing investment.
