Signs a Water Filtration System Is Right for Your Family
- Strange Tastes & Smells: As mentioned above, strange tasting and smelling water is never a good sign. For instance, if there is a sulfuric, rotten egg-like smell in your water, that could mean there is sulfate in your water system, which may irritate your skin and eyes. If your water has a metallic taste, meanwhile, it could mean you are dealing with hard, minerally water, which may require a softener.
- Discolored Water: Is your water cloudy or discolored? If so, it may be contaminated with various chemicals that not only taste bad, but aren’t great for your health. If you believe there are chemicals in your municipal water supply, it’s important for the sake of yourself and your family to install a filtration system.
- Dry Skin & Hair: Dry skin and hair are further effects of hard, minerally water. They may also lead to buildup on laundry and dishes, and even cause your hair to lose its luster over time. The same is true for chemicals in your municipal water supply, which may also cause eye and skin irritation.

- Appliance Problems: Hard water and water with excess chemicals in it causes your appliances and pipes to wear down faster. Heavy-duty equipment like dishwashers and washing machines can break down sooner, while even the performance of small appliances like coffee machines can suffer. Bottom line: a water filtration system can help your larger plumbing equipment and general appliances last longer.
