The Good Side And The Bad Side Of Water Purifiers

LOS ANGELES - Dec. 17, 2016 - PRLog -- HealthyWiser is a well-known brand in the fields of personal health, wellness and beauty and one of its products in the market is the TDS and EC meter, and test kit for water testing. Among the water systems that it tests are water purifiers at home.

Water purifiers are said to be very beneficial especially for homeowners and parents who always want to provide the best for their children.

"You need to drink water to survive. But if the water is not treated or purified properly, it can make you very sick," an article on Live Strong stated.  The website also presented some details on the advantages and some of the shortcomings for water purification systems.

Benefits Of Water Purification

One of the most important benefits of water purification systems is the removal of toxic materials. According to Live Strong, water that is untreated can be sources for many minerals such as copper and magnesium. But when these minerals react with the other water elements, they may cause some build up due to the reaction that mix with the water used for drinking, making it very unsuitable. More than these, lead is a known contaminant that water purification systems remove, as well as chlorine and iodine content.

Another advantage is that it protects the people living in the house from harmful substances. There are instances when the water supplies may have microorganisms that can cause diseases among people, such as vomiting, diarrhea and even fatality. Filtration systems are among the most useful ways to treat water supplies, along with other methods such as boiling and chemical based treatment, the website mentioned further.

The Shortcomings Of Water Purification

Water purifiers cannot guarantee a perfect treatment throughout, since these systems also have its own shortcomings, "because it may not remove every possible contaminant from drinking water," Live Strong noted.

One of the most glaring downsides of water purifying systems is not being able to remove chemicals from pesticides. Household water filtration systems can be able to take away substances such as chlorine and other massive metals, but not entirely pesticides.

"Municipal water can be treated for pesticide contamination, but if you have a well, you may not be aware that pesticides are in your water unless you have it tested," Live Strong stated in the article.
