A Water Filtration System Can is the Healthier Choice for Germantown, Brunswick, and Silver Spring Homeowners

We all use bottled water at one time or another to satisfy our need for pure drinking water.
But far too many people rely solely on bottled water for that purpose and the result is an ecological menace. Consider these very real and alarming statistics:
- Plastic bottles take 700 years to begin composting
- 90% of the cost of bottled water is due to the bottle itself
- 80% of plastic bottles are not recycled
- 38 million plastic bottles go to the dump per year in America from bottled water (not including soda)
- 24 million gallons of oil are needed to produce a billion plastic bottles
For those occasions where bottled water is your only clean water solution, please recycle. But for just about every other clean water need, Your 1 Plumber provides exactly what you need with a home water filtration system. These are the two types we recommend and install most often:
- Point-of-use (also called “under sink”) water filters remove lead from drinking water immediately prior to consumption, thus preventing this harmful substance from entering the body.
- Whole-house water filters provide cleaner and healthier water at every water source in your home, including your washing machine, dishwasher, faucets, shower, and all the rest. This is the solution for people who want clean, soft, and filtered water…period.
More Benefits of Filtered Water.
- Water filters greatly reduce the risk of rectal cancer, colon cancer, and bladder cancer by removing chlorine and chlorine byproducts from drinking water.
- A solid block carbon water filter can selectively remove dangerous contaminants from drinking water while retaining healthy mineral deposits that balance the pH of drinking water.
- Water filters provide the healthiest water for children’s developing immune systems.
- Water filters offer the last line of defense between the body and the over 2,100 known toxins that may be present in drinking water.
Where do the savings come in? Well, let’s count them in two different ways. First, you’ll save a ton of money on bottled water. That, in turn, will help conserve many more tons of both money and natural resources, with you and your family lending a big helping hand.
