The choice of the right water purification system is extremely important for a family’s health. There are around 2,400 different types of dangerous chemicals in our water that are not good for our health. If an individual consumes two or more of these chemicals, then the level of toxicity in them increases. Other than this, these chemicals can cause cancer if an individual is exposed to them for a long period of time. The Environmental Protection Agency did set standards for allowable percentage of these contaminants. However, they are limited in effectiveness.
Make Sure The system is Not Noisy
Your system should work 24/7, but ensure that they are not noisy as that means the system is not purifying water. The system should pump continuously but silently. Just make sure that you don’t be tricked by irregular recirculation. It can be a hassle to handle noisy pumps that can’t operate continuously, or those that heat up the water.
Save Efforts, Money and Time
Opt for a user friendly water purification system that is easy to install, operate and maintain. Before you buy a system check for things like service requirements, hidden panels as well as complex construction. Things like routinely chemical sanitization can complicate the maintenance procedure and will be a hassle to you as not only will you have to invest time but it will also cost you a lot.
Warranty
One year warranty is not enough in the case of water purification system. Insist for a two year or more.
It Runs On Tap Water
Make sure that the system can run on tap water without any expensive pre-treatment.
Remote Dispenser
Make sure that whenever you buy a water system, it has a remote dispenser. Certain water purification systems don’t have a remote dispenser; whereas in others, it is located so high up that you have to buy another remote dispenser, in order to get the water dispensed till the top level!
Be Environment Friendly
It is important for us to go green which is why you should recycle the DI modules and give them back to the manufacturers. In many locations, the ion exchange resin disposal is considered to be an environment hazard.
Certified Performance Data Sheet
Ask the company to give you a certified performance data sheet as it will offer you information regarding the costs of both installation as well as operation. Other than this, it shows what type of contaminants the filters block and how efficiently they do so. If the company does not provide you with this information, then chances are that they aren’t very reputable and maybe their water purification systems will not live up to your expectations.
