Under Sink Water Filters
Understanding Contaminants Found in Tap Water
Tap water that has been chemically treated for drinking quality has several residual pollutants, minerals, and heavy metals that affect the taste, odour and hygiene of your water. Common substances include chlorine, fluoride, lead, mercury, pesticides, and microorganisms. While these contaminants are normally present at low concentrations, long-term exposure can cause harm to your health. Chlorine is frequently used to disinfect municipal water supply systems and kill disease-bearing bacteria, leading to an unpleasant taste. Lead, mercury and copper are among the most common pollutants found in tap water. These contaminants find their way into drinking water through ageing sewerage systems, copper pipes and industrial contamination. Heavy metals found in tap water — which also include cadmium, chromium, zinc, nickel, aluminium, fluoride and arsenic — can cause neurological and developmental problems in children. A quality under-sink water filter kit can effectively remove these toxins while alkalising your drinking water to improve quality.
Benefits of Filtered Water from Under Sink Water Purifiers
There are many health benefits that come from a water purifier tucked away out of sight under your benchtop. Waters Co under-counter water filters are designed to eliminate harmful contaminants and impurities from tap water while adding essential minerals, while other key benefits include:
- Improved Taste: Filtered water tastes fresher and cleaner than tap water, making it more enjoyable to drink.
- Removal of Contaminants: Under-sink filter systems remove harmful contaminants like chlorine, fluoride, lead, and bacteria, ensuring your water is safe to drink. PFAS (per- and polyfluorinated substances) are chemicals used to make fluoropolymer coatings that resist breaking down by water, heat, and oil.
- Healthier Hydration: Drinking filtered water helps to keep you hydrated and supports overall health and wellness.
- Environmental Impact: By reducing the need for single-use plastic water bottles, under-sink water filter systems help to minimise plastic waste and protect the environment.
- Convenience: You can access clean, alkalised drinking water directly from your tap, eliminating the need to constantly shop for purified water or have bottles frequently delivered to your home or business.
