How Does a Drinking Water Filter for Home Work?

Depending on where you live, your home’s water supply may contain contaminants that give the tap water an unpleasant taste or even make it unsafe to drink. A drinking water filter for home can solve the problem. 

How Does a Whole-House Water Filter Work?

If your home’s water supply contains contaminants, water that comes from any faucet will be affected. A whole-house water filter can treat water when it enters the house. That can be a better solution than installing a filter on each individual faucet. There are several types of whole-house water filters that remove different types of contaminants. 

If you have hard water, a water softener can remove calcium and magnesium that are dissolved in the water. A sediment filter can remove dirt, dust, and rust from corroding pipes. An ultraviolet purification system can be effective if your water supply contains bacteria, parasites, or other living organisms. If you have well water that’s acidic, an acid neutralizer can raise its pH to a neutral level. If you have public water that’s treated with chlorine and has an unpleasant taste, a carbon filter can help. 

Which Type of Drinking Water Filter for Home Do You Need?

Water can contain several types of contaminants, and sometimes homeowners face two or more issues that need to be addressed simultaneously. Before a whole-house water filter is installed, you have to know exactly what types of issues you’re facing. 

A sample of water needs to be analyzed to identify the contaminants that are present. After that has been determined, a professional can recommend the best way to deal with the issue and make the water safe and pleasant to drink.
