You’ve probably heard people talk about “hard water” and water filtration systems. But what does that mean? And how can you ensure the water in your home is “top notch?”
What’s Wrong With Tap Water?
“Hard water” is water that has a high level of mineral content. Not only are certain minerals unhealthy in drinking water, bathing in hard water can cause dry skin and brittle hair. Tap water can also contain contaminants, so many people recommend filtering it to remove these elements, creating healthier, purer, top-notch water for bathing, drinking, and cooking. In North Carolina, there are also concerns about “forever chemicals” in tap water that can have long-term health effects, making home water filters an excellent choice for protecting your family’s health and peace of mind.
What Kind of Water Filter Should You Get?
Once you’ve decided to get a water filtration system, there are different options to consider. Filters can be applied to individual faucets and shower heads, or a single, whole-house filter can be installed to provide clean, fresh water to the entire house. Which style you choose will depend on the needs of your home and family.
