Before you Drink...
"If you have your own well, you are responsible for making sure that your water is safe to drink. Private wells should be tested annually for nitrates and coliform bacteria to detect contamination problems early. Test more frequently and for other contaminants, such as radon or pesticides." EPA
Chlorine- is linked to an increased risk of heart disease, and kills the friendly bacteria found in the intestines, that are critical for digestion. A number of recent studies have linked chlorine to some (particularly bladder) cancers, arteriosclerosis and other diseases.
Simple filters may improve the taste of your water, but they actually increase your exposure to waterborne micro-organisms. The carbon in these filters removes chlorine from the water, but is also a food source for many bacteria. When the chlorine is removed, there is nothing left in the water to inhibit bacterial growth. As a consequence, the bacteria grow hapily and readily on the food supplying filter.
The Olympics require ozone for all Olympic water events. Chlorine dries skin and hair, bleaches hair color, and irritates your eyes.
While bathing in chlorinated water, humans can absorb up to 8 times more chlorine than drinking it.
In the USA, tissues and organs of an average person contain more than 100 toxic pollutants that can damage the mond and body.
Bottled Water- Government and industry estimates indicate that about 25 to 30% of the bottled water sold in the US comes from a city or town's tap water... sometimes further treated, sometimes not.
Some bottled water testing found that some brands of bottled water that claim to be spring water have likely been chlorinated and contaminated substancial levels of trihalomethanes, a common DBP.
103 Bottled Waters Tested- 22% violated enforceable limits, 17% violated guidelines (33% violated state limits or guidelines), 4% violated Federal standards, and 18% the chemicals of concern at levels below standards.
Do not dispair, there are ecomomical, safe, proven solutions we can offer.
Spring House- Whole house 7 stage filtration system with UV light.
Living Water- Point of use purification units with carbon filtration and photo-oxidation.
Shower head filters- Removes odors and chlorine. Your hair and skin will know the difference. When taking a shower (without filtration) you can absorb as much chlorine as drinking 8 glasses.
Laundry Pure- Wash and sanitize your clothes without hot water, detergents, or bleaches. Clothes will be softer, smell fresh, detergent free without fading. These are great for those who want to go 'Green', or have allergies to detergents.
Presentations available to church, social and professional clubs.
