There are few healthy habits as crucial to your health as drinking water. The human body is made up of 70% water. With 75% of Americans chronically dehydrated we should all drink more water. But is just ANY water good enough? If you want to live your healthiest life, and truly reap the benefits of drinking water, the water we drink must be free of toxins, chemicals, sediment, and other contaminants. 

By purifying your water, you can enjoy all of the benefits of drinking water without the worry of contamination in a cost-effective and environment-friendly way. What are some other benefits of drinking purified water? Let’s take a look.

Purifying Water Removes Contaminants

Drinking water straight from the tap may seem like the obvious choice when you want to quench your thirst. Bottled water can be expensive and certainly isn’t environmentally friendly. Tap water has been through the water treatment plant, so it’s clean, great tasting water, right? Wrong!

Tap water can be host to a variety of chemicals, toxins, and contaminants. Having your water tested can help you determine if your water contains Chlorine, Nitrates, Lead or Arsenic to name a few! 

Purifying your drinking water and removing contaminants is the best way to protect your family’s health and ensure you are drinking clean, great tasting water.

Improved Smell and Taste of your Tap Water

Drinking half of your body weight in ounces of water is hard enough. Your water tasting and smelling unpleasant shouldn’t make it more difficult. Due to the chemicals used by municipal water treatment plants, tap water can not only smell bad, but be unenjoyable to drink. 

The smell and taste of your tap water may vary depending on your area. Fortunately, one of the most beneficial reasons to use a water purification system is that you will have safe drinking water that is crisp, clean, and fresh. Make every glass of purified water your favorite way to hydrate.

Low Environmental Impact

Bottling water produces 2.5 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere annually. The transport of bottled water is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, the plastics from water bottles will take 450 million years to decompose, and worst of all, the waste that washes into the ocean kills 1.1 million marine creatures each year. 

That’s why at Culligan of Chico, we have done away with bottled water, from the half-liter size to the 5-gallon bottles. Instead, we do our part towards protecting the environment by offering a range of bottle-free coolers (with Ice), water purification systems, and filters for the home or office. 

When you choose a drinking water system, not only will you cut down on plastic waste significantly, but you will also increase the lifespan of your home appliances which will save you money and help the environment!

Better Health Benefits and More Affordable Than Bottled Water

Have you ever looked at the label on your bottled water and noticed it doesn’t just say “purified water”? That’s because even though the FDA sets standards for bottled water brands, companies use various water treatment methods. Not to mention, recent studies show that most bottled water contains microplastics! By choosing a whole home water purification system, not only can you be sure where your water comes from, but you will also be confident that you are consistently drinking safe and clean water that will keep you healthy.
