Benefits of Water Conditioners & Softeners – What’s in Your Water

Have you ever been curious about what may be living in your pipes due to untreated water, but have been too afraid to look?

Although the water that leaves the public source is good, clean water that meets the EPA’s Primary Drinking Water Standards, limescale, rust and lead can accumulate in pipes and leach into your water as it travels to your home.

From energy loss to mineral build-up in water using appliances such as washers, boilers, faucets and showerheads, not to mention the high cost of repair and maintenance, RainSoft home water filtration systems can provide a quality, dependable solution to the chemicals and contaminants dwelling in your pipes and drinking water.

That’s in my Drinking Water?

According to a study by the Environmental Working Group, a non-profit organization that promotes the power of public information to protect public health and the environment, there are 240 contaminants in most drinking water, roughly 140 of which have no enforceable safety limits.

Some of these contaminants include the gasoline additive MTBE, perchlorate (a rocket fuel component), chemical by-products of water disinfection, chemicals used in industrial and consumer products and pollutants from gasoline and coal.

Surely My Pipes are Clean

Think again. Hard water, caused by a high mineral content of calcium and magnesium, can cause a build-up of scale deposits in water pipes and home appliances that use water. Over time, this build-up has the potential to increase energy costs as water is forced through more and more restricted pipes. This is also one of the causes of low water pressure.

With RainSoft water conditioning and drinking water systems, the contaminants and impurities that cause these problems to arise can be prevented, providing your family with crystal clear, fresh water for every use in the house.
