Well, let’s see what the government is saying about this. According to the EPA, “Drinking water that meets US EPA’s health-based standards is generally safe. People who are not healthy as a result of illness, age, or weakened immune systems, are more likely to be at risk from certain contaminants that may be found in drinking water. Infants and very young children are also more susceptible to some contaminants. Individuals concerned about their particular situations should consult their health...
If you draw water from a well or lake and are concerned about its quality, a UV Water purification system might give you the peace of mind your water is safe to use. Households on municipal water systems are not completely safe either, as water main breaks and broken pipes which can lead to water contamination occur frequently.
The ultraviolet water purification process uses ultraviolet light or energy to kill micro-organisms that live in water and thus make it safe for drinking.
This is an effective process...
Arsenic is a naturally occurring element from the earth’s crust. Around the world, many countries have groundwater that is steeped in arsenic. Until recently, governments haven’t realized just how bad arsenic was for people, even in minute concentrations. In 2001, the US Environmental Protection Agency felt it necessary to lower the drinking water arsenic standard from 50 parts per billion to 10 parts per billion (ppb) after scientists presented evidence that low levels still correlated with cancer...
Thanks to recent developments in technology, daily drinking water undergoes a rigorous treatment process for water to be consumable. This is because most ground and natural river waters have a chemical in them called arsenic. Arsenic is a metallic chemical element that is found commonly among rocks and sulfur in the Earth’s crust. Arsenic is known for getting into your drinking water from natural deposits or runoff due to agricultural, mining, and industrial activities. If you own a water well or live by a...
Water is the foundation of human existence. It’s used for cooking, bathing, cleaning, and most importantly, drinking.

Since many cities have been shown to have low-grade drinking water, concern has increased about water quality. Many people are wondering if their water is safe to use and drink. Some may even be wondering if there’s anything they can do. Thankfully, there is....
