Benefits of a Water Filtration System for Home Plumbing
Installing a water filtration system for home use provides many benefits to your family, including:
Safe Drinking Water Supply
With a whole home water filtration system in place, impurities and contaminants are removed from your drinking water, sending only safe, clean water through your taps.
- Filtration systems remove biological organisms and parasites that can be present in a home’s water if the water treatment process is not performed correctly, causing digestive issues in those who consume it.
- Contaminants including fluoride, chlorine, and others which are potentially harmful when consumed are removed.
- The pH level of the drinking water is lowered, so your water smells and tastes better!
Protection for Your Plumbing
A water filtration system for home plumbing doesn’t just benefit your family members; it benefits your plumbing pipes, fixtures, and appliances, too! By filtering out minerals and chemicals, buildup inside plumbing components is reduced. By slowing down buildup, you’ll reduce the need for plumbing repairs and help your appliances and fixtures stay in service longer.
Healthy Skin
Installing a water filtration system has many health benefits, too. Many people don’t realize that some skin conditions can be worsened by poor water quality. Heavy metals, chlorine, fluoride, and other particles in water irritate your skin when bathing, washing your hands, and even wearing clothing that was washed at home! Removing these contaminants can improve eczema and psoriasis symptoms, especially in children. Also, avoid allergic reactions and skin rashes that occur upon contact with these particles.
Clean Better with Less Soap
Another way a whole house filtration system for home use helps your skin is by reducing the amount of soap needed for bathing. It also cuts the amount of soap and detergent needed for laundry, doing dishes, and other cleaning tasks. Mineral deposits and soap scum are eliminated, protecting your skin, clothing, and dishes. Save money on soaps and detergents by using less to get the job done!
Preserve Your Clothing
By removing minerals and using less soap in the washing machine, your clothes are cleaner and stay in good shape longer. Soap scum and minerals can stick in fabrics, breaking down fibers and causing clothing to deteriorate sooner.
Save Money
When tap water tastes funky, many homeowners turn to bottled water for drinking. Buying bottled water eats up a considerable portion of your household grocery budget, but installing a water filtration system for home use can eliminate this expense altogether!
Reduce Waste
By eliminating your family’s dependency on bottled water for drinking, you won’t be contributing dozens of plastic bottles to the waste stream each month. Even if you recycle, energy is still needed to facilitate the process. Cutting the use of bottles altogether conserves this energy for the benefit of the environment.
