Think of all the different ways we use water in our homes. We use it to wash our clothes, our dishes and cooking utensils, we bathe in it, and most importantly we use it to cook with. We drink water from the tap directly and we use it to brush our teeth. Using a singular water filter is simply not enough to protect us from potential harm from contaminated water. A whole house water treatment system is more expensive but worth the investment if you can afford it..
People have a common misconception about the dangers posed by the chemicals commonly found within tap water. This misconception is that the chemicals in tap water are only dangerous if they are consumed orally. This simply is not the case. The reality is tap water which is emitted from the shower head will turn to steam due to the high temperature and this means that the chlorine typically found within the tap water will then form into a gas which is then inhaled whenever we breath.
Studies have shown that long term exposure to chlorine can result in respiratory problems and impairment. These risks are especially pronounced and severe in the case of young children and older people who already have compromised and weakened autoimmune systems. Individuals who suffer from bronchitis and asthma need to be particularly cautious too.
