With an increased emphasis on healthy living, consumption of purified water is on the rise. We would like you to understand what makes water "pure" and why you should take advantage of the great tasting water available through the H2Only Water Station, our commercial water purification plants and our H2Only brand of bottled water.
THE PROBLEMS WITH OUR DRINKING WATER
Sometimes water has an unpleasant odor or taste, which may not be unhealthy but isn't desirable. Other times drinking water problems derive from chemical or biological contaminants that can affect your health. Most contaminants enter the water supply through landfills, deteriorating underground storage tanks, industrial waste, agricultural fertilizer and pesticide run-off, storm water run-off, and leaching from plumbing materials. Some contaminants also occur naturally in water and soils. Under the provisions of The Safe Water Drinking Act, the public water supply systems are faced with the growing problem of dealing with this increasing number of contaminants, many of which were unknown when the treatment plants were designed and built. To make matters worse, many treatment systems are strained to capacity in order to meet increases in water demand. To deliver water that meets all minimum health requirements, they are sometimes forced to produce water that is highly chlorinated or which simply does not taste or smell good. To protect themselves from potential water contaminants as well as to enjoy better tasting and smelling water, more and more people are turning to purified water as their source of drinking water.
A HEALTHY ATTITUDE TOWARDS DRINKING WATER
Water has an important role in nearly every major
function of your body. Next to air, it's the substance most necessary for
our existence. Water regulates body temperature, carries nutrients and
oxygen to cells, and removes waste. It cushions joints and protects organs
and tissues. Health professionals recommend that people consume at least
two quarts of water each day.
Purified water is the ideal beverage for today's
healthier lifestyles because it is natural, has no calories, is caffeine
free and, it's portable. Water has become the drink of choice for those
who exercise regularly and for people who pay attention to their diets.
With 90% of Americans consuming low calorie, sugar free or reduced fat
food and beverages, purified water is the natural choice!
