We use it every day for drinking, cooking, and bathing, but most of us rarely think twice about what’s actually in it. The truth is, even water that seems fine can carry hidden contaminants that can impact your health and home. Knowledge is the first step to protection, which is why we’re debunking three common water myths you’ve probably heard… and maybe even believed.

‍

Myth #1: Tap Water Is Safe to Drink

Although municipal water is treated and monitored, that doesn’t guarantee purity. In fact, tap water can still contain a range of unwanted contaminants, including chlorine, lead, pesticides, and even trace pharmaceuticals. Aging infrastructure and corroded pipes can also introduce heavy metals and bacteria into your home’s water supply. Having a reliable water filtration system provides an added layer of protection, shielding your family from invisible contaminants and giving you peace of mind with every sip.

Myth #2: Bottled Water Is the Healthier Option

Bottled water might seem like a cleaner, safer choice, but in reality, it’s often just tap water in disguise and contained in plastic. You're paying more for convenience, not quality. Plus, single-use bottles can have a big impact on your environmental footprint. By investing in a high-quality water filtration system, you can enjoy fresh, great-tasting water straight from your tap. It’s better for your health, your wallet, and the planet.

Myth #3: If My Water Looks Clear, It Must Be Clean

Just because your water is clear doesn’t mean hidden particles are not present. Contaminants like lead, PFAS (“forever chemicals”), and nitrates don’t change how your water looks, smells, or tastes, leaving them invisible and undetected. The only way to be certain of what’s in your water is through thorough testing, like our free in-home consultation and water analysis. Giving you real confidence in your water quality so you can trust what’s coming out of your tap.
