Did you know your body is 70 percent water?

Pure water flushes out toxins, improves your complexion, relieves headaches, promotes weight loss, and aids in digestion.

So, when your water is of poor quality, your mind and body can't function properly. You may feel sluggish, bloated, and dehydrated without the proper amount of high-quality water.

While public water treatment facilities remove major contaminants, they may not necessarily remove impurities that make your water smell and taste as fresh water should, and they may not supplying you with water that is optimal for your health. Water filters provide an extra line of defense against microorganisms that may make you sick or dry out your hair and skin.

Here's What Quality Water Does for You:

Saves Money on Plumbing Fixtures and Appliances

Good water quality leads to a longer life for your appliances and fixtures, sparing you the cost of constant replacement. In a recent study, dishwashers and clothes washers were operated for 30 days and 240 full wash cycles on soft and hard water sources. The washers using softened water were virtually free of any scale build up. The washers using hard water, however, required removal of scale and deposit build up. Additionally, less detergent was required for the clothes washed with softened water. The same study found that hard water led to as much as a 48% efficiency loss in water heaters over a 15-year lifetime. Meanwhile, water heaters operated on softened water maintained the original factory efficiency rating over the same period of time.

Fresher Taste and Odour

Ever wonder why water from the tap sometimes smells like rotten eggs or tastes metallic? Hydrogen sulfide gas can cause water to give off an unpleasant odour (and damages plumbing). The presence of iron or manganese in water could lead to a metallic taste. Water filters remove impurities that cause foul-tasting and – smelling water by trapping microorganisms through an intake hose. This leads to fresh, pure-tasting and – smelling water.

Less Cleaning

Water impurities may lead to an abundance of mineral deposits that are typically found in hard water (for example, lime). This hard-to-remove build up can be frustrating to clean. Harsh scrubbing can wear away porcelain enamel if your bathtub or sink are made of porcelain. Using a water softener to purify the water means you can clean your plumbing fixtures and appliances less often while simultaneously increasing their lifespan.
