Water Filter Systems

Home water filter systems filter or clean your home’s water supply of unwanted particles and bacteria. A home water filtration system is an easy way to ensure that you're getting cleaner, tastier tap water. Listed below are some other methods – both short and long term – that may also improve the quality of the water you use in your home. Flush your pipes. If water hasn't been used in the last six hours, run water from the cold tap until it's at its coldest. The longer water has been sitting in your home's pipes, the more lead it may contain. Use cold water for consumption. When drinking, cooking or making baby formula, use only cold tap water. Hot water is likely to contain higher levels of lead. Have your water tested. A list of laboratories certified by your state or the EPA should be available from your local or state public health department. Home Page | FAQs | Glossary | Contact Us
