People call me every day to review their water reports and discuss the type of water purification system they may need. i base my recommendations on local water reports because, in my view it is the only way to know what you need. Some people call and say they want to remove everything, but 'everything' may or may not be in your water. To buy the correct water filter for your home it is advisable to start by studying your local water source. And that is the first thing I look for in a water report. Where is your water coming from? Water comes from mountains, it comes from lakes, it comes from rivers, and it comes from wells. Each of these sources has a different set of issues.
If your water source is a river and there are cities upstream of you then there are trace amounts of pharmaceuticals in your water. Because these amounts are very low, at present the government considers them to be of little consequence to your health. However, a number of studies now contradict this and suggest that even trace amounts of pharmaceuticals in drinking water can affect human cell growth.
Whole House Fluoride Filters
Many people call me and hope to learn how to remove fluoride from water throughout their entire home. They don't want to bathe in it, believing, I think rightly so, that fluoride may be absorbed through the skin. Until recently I'vd not seen any studies which verify this. However I did discover a study written by the State of New Hampshire in 2008 which says that fluoride is absorbed through the skin when bathing.
You can remove fluoride from water in your entire home, but it is expensive. A whole house fluoride filter must be sized so that the water flows through the filter slowly enough to provide time for the fluoride to interact with the media in the fluoride filter. Most people don't pursue this course due to expense and most water treatment companies fail to mention this to you.
I have two different models of fluoride filters which I have designed for your budget and desired effectiveness. One is 1 cubic foot in size, making it effective at treating one shower at a time. The other is 3 cu ft for higher flow rates. Systems are described along with the pros and cons of each:
Downflow with automated backwash valve: $ 1535. - most effective of the small systems and automated so you don't have to worry about backwashing it.
3 Cubic Foot Downflow System (6 gpm): $ 2860. - this system will remove fluoride at higher flow rates and is fully automated.
Effectiveness in the removal of fluoride depends on a variety of factors.
