The Importance of Clean, Filtered Water

Given that your body is 60% water, doesn’t it make sense to drink the cleanest and healthiest water available? Sure it does…it’s not even worth arguing over.

If you agree, then the next step is determining how best to supply yourself with high quality water. Basically, you have three choices:

• Load up on bottled water
• Rent a water cooler and have a delivery person keep you well-stocked with five-gallon bottles
• Have a water filtration system in your home

There are different cases that can be made for each of these options, but one thing’s for sure: with bottled water or water from a cooler, you get the benefit of filtered drinking water, and nothing more. With a water filtration system, you can have filtered water readily available at every water source in your home.

Do You Need Filtered Water?

Need can be a difficult thing to determine, but not always. Here, for example, are several clear signs that you can benefit from improved water quality:

• Water looks, tastes, or smells funny
• After running the dishwasher, dishes and glasses are covered with a white, milky haze that requires hand washing
• Clothes must be washed more than once to get them clean
• Washing your hair leaves it dry and frizzy
• You need more skin softener
• You find a green ring in your toilet bowl

Or, maybe you just suspect you have a water quality issue and want to be sure. Clear symptoms or not, you can have your answer in short order by contacting Messmer Mechanical to request a water quality test.

If it turns out your water doesn’t meet minimum standards of purity, a water filtration system is the way to go.  Here are just some of the benefits you can look forward to:

• Removes harmful substances like chlorine
• Reduces the risk of several health issues
• Strengthens your immune system
