Top Tips for Safe Drinking Water!

Sunday, March 9, 2014 - by Water2Drink


Recently, the Environmental Working Group (EWG) published a “Guide to Safe Drinking Water.” This Guide provides a list of top tips for safely staying hydrated. 

Water2Drink.com applauds the list, as each tip provides consumer education without using the scare tactics that are so typical in many media stories.  The EWG provides well researched, sensible information that the consumer can learn from and easily apply in their own life.

There is, however, one point that Water2Drink would like to clarify.  In the article, the EWG states, “Install a reverse osmosis filter if you can afford it, to remove contaminants that carbon filters can’t eliminate, like arsenic and perchlorate (rocket fuel).”

While Water2Drink offers the Multipure AquaRO Reverse Osmosis drinking water filtration system, you do not necessarily need to install an RO system to address arsenic contamination in your water.  The Aquaperform family (MP880 series) of Multipure filters is NSF-certified as highly effective in reducing arsenic contamination in municipal water sources. You can review the Aquaperform Performance Data Sheet here to see the many contaminants that are addressed by the Aquaperform family of water filtration systems.

Before installing any water filtration system in your home, Water2Drink recommends that you educate yourself about the quality of your water source.  You can contact your local water utility to request a copy of your annual water report.  You also can use the EWG Tap Water Quality Database as another resource for information.
