Reverse Osmosis Water Purifier

RO (ReverseOsmosis) water purifiers are highly effective at reducing pesticides in water, typically removing 90–95% of them.

Drinking RO water can provide potential health advantages by reducing exposure to harmful substances. The improved water quality may contribute to better overall health outcomes, making RO systems a valuable choice for households seeking safer drinking water.

About my experience – I am happy with performance AO Smith ProPlanet P7 model that I installed recently. The water taste has improved as compared to my potable water supply. Liquid based drinks like coffee and tea taste has improved.

Damning analysis discovers US tap water is a ‘cocktail of chemicals’

Tap water across the US is riddled with chemical contaminants and even radioactive material, a new study has shown, with the situation complicated by outdated safety standards.

The worrying state of American tap water was highlighted in recent analysis by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), a non-profit organization based in Washington, DC that has maintained a database of drinking-water contaminants across the country since 2014.

Hazardous chemicals, including pesticides and radioactive materials, are “often found in drinking water at potentially unsafe levels, particularly in low-income and underserved communities,” it said in a press release.

“When some Americans drink a glass of tap water, they’re also potentially getting a dose of industrial or agricultural contaminants linked to cancer, brain and nervous system damage, fertility problems, hormone disruption, and other health harms.”

For too many Americans, turning on their faucets for a glass of water is like pouring a cocktail of chemicals.

More than 50 new pollutants have been identified in water supplies, with the main culprits behind the increase being perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances. This class of substances, commonly referred to as ‘forever chemicals,’ due to their stability and slow breakdown process, are widely used across multiple industries.
