Don’t Let Unfiltered Water Ruin Your Summer Drinks
Anyone can mix water, lemons, and sugar to make lemonade. But not everyone has the magic touch that gets the mix just like grandma used to make. While we always thought it was an extra dash of sugar or a bit more lemon, it might have just been the water she was using!
This summer, find that magic touch by using filtered water for your lemonade. Filtered water is tastier and better for your health. So, what’s not to love? Read on to discover a few ways to keep your water safe and clean for the whole family.
How Can Hard Water Hurt Your Mix?
Hard water can be bad for your health and home. It contains high levels of magnesium and calcium that can build up in the pipes and in the body.
Instead, consider installing a water softening unit to condition your water supply. A water softener replaces those calcium and magnesium ions with sodium, a vital mineral that makes the water taste and feel better.
As technology advances, there are more options to choose from, including saltless softeners. Before choosing a specific softener for your home, it is important to assess your needs. One way to know which size device to buy is to multiply the number of people in your house by the number of gallons of water used per day.
Then multiply that by the grains of hardness in your water. The resulting number will tell you how many grains of hardness must be removed per day. A professional can help you with this assessment so that you can make the most accurate decision when it is time to purchase your water softener.
Not only will your lemonade be tasting great, but your dishes will be cleaner and your skin will be smoother. What’s not to love?
Always Opt for Whole-Home Filtration
Another way to make your water taste better is to filter it. Filtered water is safer and tastier than tap water, and now you can filter all the water in your home.
By adding a whole house filter, your entire family can benefit from the purity of filtration. Now, potable water doesn’t have to be limited to the kitchen.
Filtration systems are affordable and long-lasting, ensuring the health and safety of your family for years to come. There are many different options for whole-house filters including UV systems, sediment filtration, ion exchange, and many more. To discover what type is best for your home, talk to a professional about your current water problems and how they can be solved.
Try a UV Water Filter
Is that lemonade still not up to par with grandmas? Don’t worry. By using ultraviolet technology, a UV water filter can give you the cleanest water in the neighborhood.
UV water filters remove the toxins and VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds) from your tap water. They also remove 99.9% of the germs and bacteria that still reside in tap water.
And the best part is, they’re highly accessible. They can cost between 700 and 1,000 dollars, which is about the same as most other types of purification systems. The difference is all in the accuracy. UV filters are some of the most trusted purification systems and can protect from dangerous microorganisms like E. coli bacteria and Giardia lamblia protozoa.
Now, that’s going to be some good lemonade! If you’ve seen signs of harmful water in your household, don’t wait. Call us now to find the best way to purify your water and keep your family safe.
