Drinking Water Supplies For Your Home And Business

By Imogen T Stubbs

If you use well water or your source water has a horrible taste, then you may need to review your options and think about purchasing drinking water supplies to help make your water taste better and safer for consumption.

You don’t want to give the bottled water industry all of your hard earned money, just to buy a two dollar bottle of Fuji water because it’s marketed as the world’s best. Your tap water may be the source you need to turn to for your water needs. Think about that before you start whipping out your credit card.

Water Purifiers To Clean Out Your Drinking Water

Water purifiers are probably the number one drinking water system currently on the market. The purifier takes out any impurities found in the water supply. Well water definitely tastes different than city tap water or bottled water.

This could be due to lime deposits found in the underground water supply that is tapped into by your water system. It can leave a build up of lime in your bathtub, sinks and even your hot water heater, which can cause the element to burn out or cause the entire heater to become useless. Lime build up is hard to remove so most people opt for a purification system to help remove it from the water. Water softeners can be expensive though.

Bottled Water

Another option instead of the softening system is to use bottled water for your drinking needs. This is really applicable to city water since well water will still need to have a softener for the lime deposits. The purification system can take out the boiled water taste and provide you with sparkling water.

Other drinking water supplies may be to have water delivered to your home. Water coolers are a great way to save money on bottled water and have it readily cooled and ready to drink. You may also consider purchasing a refrigerator that comes with its own water purification system built in and dispenses water, as well as ice, in the door.

Shop Around For The Best Drinking Water Supplies

Before you make a big purchase of drinking water supplies you should shop around town. There are many retail stores that sell water supply systems and purification systems for your home or office.

Most are quite reasonable and you can even find companies that will deliver the water to your home or business. They even come in and change the empty jugs out so you do not have to fear spilling a huge jug of water all over the place. The downside to home delivery businesses is that you may have to sign a contract.

However, if you really want clean, cold water, then it may be worth the money to sign up for a delivery service.

Did You Know?

What is the Safe Drinking Water Act?
In 1974 Congress passed the Safe Drinking Water Act as a way to monitor the drinking water standards of all US public drinking water facilities. It does not cover well water but it does cover bottled water facilities. It does cover ground well water sources where public water facilities tap into though and of course rivers, streams and lakes.

How does it protect me?
It keeps your drinking water safe from pollutants, harmful chemicals and runoffs from farm pesticides and other dumping into the water that you drink. Before 1974 there was a real problem with contaminants making their way into the homes of citizens who were ingesting such pollutants as arsenic and lead. Both of which we now realize can cause death and cancer.
