What Are Your Drinking Water Standards?Friday, February 13, 2015 - by Water2Drink![]() If your community water system violates drinking water
standards, do you trust them when they say “there is nothing you need to do?” Recently, the town of Wrightsville Beach, NC, experienced a
violation of the drinking water standard for #trihalomethanes. While the public notice indicates this is not
an emergency, it goes on to list the possible health risks associated with the
liver, kidneys, and central nervous system, including #cancer.
The town is working with the NC Department of Environment
and Natural Resources (NCDENR) to bring the contaminant concentration down and
into compliance, and that they “anticipate improvements within three months.” The
notice also says the public doesn’t need to boil water or take other corrective
actions. But during that three-month
period, and for potentially longer, the public is still exposed to
trihalomethanes in their drinking water.
If this happened to your water supply, are you willing to risk your
health for three months?
The only way to ensure your health and the safety of your
drinking water is to be proactive. Using
a Multipure Drinking Water System allows you to be in control of the quality of
your water source. The Multipure family
of filtration products are NSF-certified to reduce trihalomethanes, the
offending contaminant, along with dozens of other #contaminants, cysts, and
heavy metals.
Water2Drink believes the consumer should know exactly what
contaminants are reduced by using a #Multipure product. On our website, Water2Drink.com, we have
provided links on each product page to the description, features,
documentation, specifications, and “What’s in the Box.” Simply click on the Products link on our
homepage, then click the drinking water system you are researching. You will find the Performance Data Sheet
listed under the “Documentation” tab.
You can’t always trust the water source, but you can trust your
Multipure Drinking Water System.
