Whole House Water

• No matter how clean it appears or you think it
  is, most tap water in Australia contain moderate
  to high levels of contamination and toxic
  chemicals.
• From naturally occurring and harmful minerals
  like lead, mercury and arsenic to purposely added
  chemicals and by-products including fluoride and
  chlorine, tap water may comprise impurities and
  contaminants that can put your health at stake.
• Fortunately, there is a huge range of
  cutting-edge water treatment solutions out there
  for home owners to ensure the supply of healthy
  and safe drinking water to themselves and their
  family. Amongst all those water treatment
  choices, whole house water filter is a popular
  one.

• Installing an effective whole house water filter
  in your home can help improve varied properties
  of water including taste, quality and appearance.
  However, theres much more you need to know
  before installing one.
• Thus highlighted below are three common
  considerations one must heed when buying a whole
  house water filter.

4
Is your tap water disinfected by water department?

• Chlorine and chloramine are added to tap water in
  the process of industrial water disinfection in
  order to kill or deactivate harmful germs and
  pathogens.
• Not all whole house filters that remove chlorine
  would necessarily remove chloramine. Therefore,
  it is important to determine if your tap water
  contains chloramine or chlorine in the first
  place and then choose a filtration system that is
  specifically designed to remove these chemicals
  effectively. 

5

• So how do go about finding if your water
  department is using chlorine or chloramines to
  disinfectant tap water?
• Check you water departments water quality report
  also known as consumer confidence report, which
  can be requested from the water supplier.

6
Is your whole house water filter certified?

• When buying a whole house filtration system, it
  is necessary to make sure it has been certified
  by NSF Standard 42 to remove chlorine and common
  water contaminants such as sediments and rust as
  well as improve the taste and odour of your
  water.
• In addition, you must check your water quality
  test report to check contaminant removal rates
  which tells how effective your water filter is in
  removing contaminants.

7
The best whole house water filter might not
provide you the purest drinking.

• Yes, it might seem a bit contradictory but a
  cutting edge whole house water system may not be
  the best water treatment solution for your home.
• Two factors that account for the usefulness of
  whole water house filter are water flow and
  filtration. The higher the flow rate the lower
  the filtration rate/effectivity of the filter.

8

• This implies that a whole house water filter
  alone is not enough to meet the filtration needs
  of a whole house. You will need a separate
  drinking water filtration system to remove
  additional contaminants in the chlorine or
  chloramine-free water from your whole house water
  filter.

Conclusion

• From cooking to drinking to bathing and cleaning,
  a whole house water filter provides
  chlorine/chloramine-free safe water to meet your
  daily household water needs.

• However, to ensure the best quality of water in
  your home, it is important to consider the
  abovementioned pointers when buying a whole house
  filter. In addition, it is advisable to consult
  with an expert that specialises in whole house
  water filter services to find an ideal solution
  for your application.
