People assume that their tap water supply is clean, but that is not always the case. Dinghy clothes and bad tasting water are only two of the many ways to tell if your water needs to be filtered. If your home is old, a filtration system can ensure there are no lead particles in your water supply. If you are on well water, a filter can remove harmful chemicals and pesticides that may have been introduced into your water supply.

Key Takeaways:

• People should not assume that their tap water is clean and good to drink but it has been shown that is not always the case.
• The filtration needs of a home can vary and the factors determining it are the types of contaminants in the water and the water consumption behavior of the household.
• Where toxins have been detected in the water or the water contains a high amount of minerals, what is needed is water filtration for the whole house.

“Some impurities are relatively harmless, but some are toxic or can wreak havoc on appliances and fixtures.”
