Water From A Tap : Not As Harmless As It Sounds
Shocking but true. Recently there were some tests carried out, to assess the quality of the water reaching our homes. Samples of water from a tap in some randomly selected homes of different geographical locations were taken and tested. The results were beyond anyone's expectation.   
 
Apart from chlorine, the regular contaminant, which we all know is anyways present in tap water, there was a huge set of other impurities found in the sampled water.     
 
The sampled water from a tap had various organic, chemical and synthetic contaminants like  arsenic, fluoride,You are not allowed to view links.

Water from a tap can be so impure,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, it is truly unbelievable. But this is where we are. Consuming such water is not only against our personal hygiene, it is very harmful as well.   
 
Arsenic is the most dangerous contaminant which can cause skin, lung, bladder and liver cancer. Excessive intake of fluoride increases the risk of bone fractures.

Chlorine has a property of reacting with other organic contaminants present in water and generating toxic by-products like chloroform and Trimethylanes.   
 
So what do we do?     
 
Use a Carbon Filter? A carbon filter is no doubt very efficient but only against chlorine. The other contaminants can not be filtered out by a water purifier based only on carbon filter technique. We need something more than that.   
 
Have you heard of multi stage water filters? These are the most effective and efficient water filters available in the market today. With these purifiers installed, there is a full guarantee that the water from a tap is absolutely clean and  pure.   
 
These purifiers are based on the combined techniques of carbon filtration, ion exchange and sub micron filtration. Typically they are equipped with two stage filters. The first stage is responsible for removing chlroine from water and enhancing the pH balance of water. The second stage removes all other chemical, organic and synthetic contaminants by ion exchange wherein the harmful lead and copper ions are exchanged with useful sodium and potassium ions.   
 
Using a good water purifier is the best solution to save oneself from the health ailments caused due to consuming unhealthy and contaminated water. After all there is nothing like the assurance of getting clean and fresh water from a tap.   
 
Now that you are armed with this information, it is time to swing into action and find out a water purifier which suits you the most.
