Finally - Absolutely Pure Water Available for New Yorkers!

March 28, 2011 - PRLog -- In recent months New York City's Tap water has appeared in many headlines and newscasts. Back in November 2010 the DEP began a public education program on Lead in drinking water in response to elevated lead levels found in their routine testing. This March Forbes released an article citing NYC tap water as third worst in the country. Numerous blogs and forums speak on the dangers of drinking NYC tap water unfiltered, most referencing factual scientific research which lends support to the health risks.

This past week the NYC Environmental Protection Agency released their annual Drinking Water Supply and Quality Report. It is unsurprising that this report mentions the Lead issue and provides 'tips' for residents to reduce possible exposure. If you possess enough chemistry savvy and statistical analyzing skills perhaps you will be able to clearly understand the Test Results Detected Parameters provided on pages 10 and 11. One thing we would like to point out is "Total Trihalomethanes" - aka, by-products of drinking water chlorination. There is plenty of research available about the carcinogenic properties of Trihalomethanes, perhaps you are aware of this. But are you aware that the report states there are between 33 and 44 micrograms per liter in NYC tap water?

Any health conscious individual will understand that filtering the tap water is a wise decision. Unfortunately many residents are unaware of the different types of filtration options that exist. Many people install a simple carbon filter on their faucet or purchase a filtered pitcher and believe that they have removed all of the contaminants and chemicals. Unfortunately this is very far from the truth. Carbon filters are not effective at removing many substances including Fluoride, nitrates and dissolved inorganic compounds.
