1 Science Behind Better Water TM

2 Understanding the nature of water Water: without it, life would not exist on earth Water from the oceans, lakes and rivers has always been reused, purified and filtered by nature itself through evaporation and then rain. Water is contaminated by harmful substances. Water Problems caused by nature When water flows through porous rocks, certain minerals like calcium and magnesium present therein tend to get dissolved in it, making the water hard. caused by human action Water is also polluted by the products of our modern day civilization: pesticides, fungicides, the thousands of synthetic chemical products which filter down to the ground water level. Why should water be treated? Water thus polluted becomes unfit for consumption. Since it is very expensive to transport water, the water in your tap is drawn from a nearby source. The quality differing with the region, your water could be hard, have a high content of limestone, sediments, even pesticides and other toxic substances. How does one resolve these problems? Treatment by water supply companies Water supply companies tackle these problems by treating the water under the supervision of the concerned authorities to ensure supply of potable water to all by conforming to the strictest health standards. However, these companies do not address the needs of the domestic consumer: in order to destroy bacteria they use toxic chemical products like chlorine, which gives a bad taste and unpleasant odour to the water. they do not treat the water for hardness, which progressively damages your appliances and consumes an excessive amount of energy. they leave all kinds of particles in the water, thereby spoiling the quality of the water, especially of drinking water. Bottled water? Faced by these problems, one can, as an individual, opt for bottled water. There is a wide variety available to suit individual tastes: water with more or less salts, with such and such mineral in its composition, etc. Moreover, bottled water is very convenient while travelling. However, manufacturing and transporting this product consumes precious energy and makes it expensive, not to mention the added chore of picking it up and bringing it home from the store. Treating water at home: the made to order solution Only domestic water treatment brings the appropriate solution, adapted to water of every quality. Domestic water treatment solves all these problems, and makes soft, clear, pure water easily available, by simply turning on your tap.
