Bottled water might seem like the safest choice during the holidays — but it’s not as clean, convenient, or sustainable as you think. With rising concerns about tap water quality, microplastics, and PFAS, more homeowners are switching to a drinking water system that delivers pure, great-tasting water right from the tap. Here’s why now is the perfect time to make the change before the holiday rush.
As we step into 2025, many of us are setting resolutions to improve our health, enhance our homes, and make more eco-conscious choices. One resolution that encompasses all these goals? Ensuring access to clean, safe water. Upgrading your water filtration system in your home is not just a smart move for your health—it’s an essential step in addressing modern water challenges, such as PFAS, microplastics, and forever chemicals.
In our last blog post, we took a deep dive into the hidden risks of PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) in tap water, explaining their potential impact on human health and why homeowners should be concerned. Now that you’re familiar with the basics, this follow-up post will explore what steps you can take to further protect your family from PFAS contamination and ensure your tap water is safe to drink.
In our previous post, we introduced the dangers of PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) in tap water and discussed the importance of understanding this pressing issue. While awareness of PFAS contamination is growing, many homeowners still have questions about the long-term health risks and the most effective ways to protect their families from exposure.
As more people become aware of water quality issues, a new concern has come to light: PFAS contamination in tap water. PFAS, or Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances, are man-made chemicals that are highly resistant to degradation. This resilience means that PFAS persist in the environment for years, accumulating in water supplies, soil, and even in the human body. Sometimes called "forever chemicals," they pose significant health risks that have sparked alarm among scientists, public health officials, and homeowners alike.
In recent years, concerns over water quality have escalated, particularly regarding the presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), commonly known as "forever chemicals." PFAS are persistent pollutants that pose significant health risks even at low concentrations. With increasing awareness, homeowners are seeking reliable solutions to safeguard their drinking water.
