The Cost of Unfiltered Water
Unfiltered water can cause many costly, time-consuming, and unpleasant problems, such as:
- Stains on toilets, bathtubs, and other surfaces
- Scale on faucets and other metal surfaces
- Clogged faucets and shower heads
- Corroded, pitted, slow-running pipes and appliances, caused by plumbing clogged with mineral deposits
- Soaps and detergents won’t lather, leaving stained, dingy clothes with a feeling of detergent residue
- Sticky soap scum in sinks, washer, and shower
- Spots on dishes, glassware, and silverware
- Unfiltered water increases housework by 80+ hours per year
- Homes using unfiltered water use up to 83% more water to function properly.
Filtered water, however, has many benefits, such as requiring 30% less ingredients to obtain the desired taste in cooking or beverages. With filtered water, you will experience softer skin, fabrics that last 30% longer, and 70% savings on soaps and detergents. These things are just the “tip of the iceberg” of all the benefits and cost-saving features of filtered water.
