Will I get slippery-slimy feeling water from using Whole House Water FiltrationFilters and a Conditioning System as I do now with my water softener?
A lot people wonder if they use today’s new salt-free technologies to address hard water issues, will the water still have that slippery-slimy feel that is common with salt-based water softening systems. And the answer to that question is “NO.”
We have technologies today that reduce the hard water issues in your home without introducing sodium or other salts. Therefore we do not suffer from what RD Allen calls, “A set of man-made characteristics” that come from the old-fashioned traditional water softeners.
No slippery, slimy or oily feeling. The soap and shampoo rinses completely off, and you feel fresh and clean when you get out of the shower. That is what you get with a high-quality water filter and conditioning system like the Healthy Home Solution.
All of these questions can be addressed in one answer.
Specifically, we want our product to clean and refresh itself on a regular basis. Usually every seven days is best. We expose more surface area and therefore dramatically increase the life of the media.
This filter system is much better than standard whole house water filter cartridge systems because of the regular cleaning and restructuring of the media. And in our product, the Healthy Home Solution, this is all done with an automatic back-washing feature which requires a connection to a drain. The water that drains out is clean water. There are no chemicals added, nor does it introduce any sodium or chloride as is done by traditional water softeners. This water can be directed to either the sewer, a landscape drain, or to reuse for irrigation and landscape watering.
RD Allen: A big question today is how does an environmentally sound salt-free water conditioning and filtration system benefit the environment?
The first answer is simple – a whole house water treatment system will reduce the reliance on plastics and plastic bottles. The second answer is to eliminate the need for traditional and old fashioned residential water softeners that introduce sodium chloride into the eco-system. Traditional water softeners are being banned in many communities in California and across the United States because of the dramatic negative effect they are having on the environment.
What is inside the whole house water purifier filter that takes out the chemicals, odors, tastes and other contaminants?
Top quality whole home filters have 3 to 4 different types of media. Redox media is used to reduce heavy metals. Coconut shell activated carbon is used to remove chlorine, pesticides and other chemicals. A garnet media is used to maintain a high flow rate through the water filter. Make sure any water filter system you are looking contains these media because without them you won’t achieve high quality water filtering.
Home water filters can contribute to home wellness in a number of ways. There are a variety of chemicals in our cities’ water that have been added to keep us safe from bacteria and other bugs. Chlorine is the most prevalent chemical used. This is good for sterilizing the water and keeping bacteria and other organisms from contaminating the water supply. Those organisms could make you sick. However, the downside to this is the chemicals can make you sick too. These chemicals need to be removed from your home water before you use it. Once the water is sterilized, there is no more need for the chemicals in it. You should not be drinking or bathing in chlorine, ammonia, or any of the other chemicals used. These and other chemicals can cause serious issues when absorbed into our skin and bodies.
The methods used to filter the water can vary quite a bit in method and design. Some people install home water filters on the countertop or under the sink. Other people prefer stripping the water clean by using reverse osmosis systems. These types of water filters are only used for filtering your drinking water. However, it is in the shower where the most damage could be caused. During a hot shower, our pores open up and our skin acts like a giant sponge. It literally soaks up all the chlorine and other contaminants, which can later do damage to our internal organs. This is why we believe the proper method on how to filter water is by using a whole house water filtration system. This solves all your water filtering issues for the whole house at once.
The HealthyHome Solution whole home water filters create a barrier at your front door to keep these chemicals from harming your family. Harmful chemicals and contaminants are removed or reduced to insignificant levels. Right now, the levels of many contaminants are consistently higher than recommended by even the government. The levels vary from city to city across the United States. Dr. Oz recently did a television about it. Therefore, the need to get some whole home water filter is more important than ever.
Now something to be aware of is the fact that because water chemical levels are different across the country, a water filter system set up for Irvine, California may not work for a Boson, Massachusetts residence. A generic water filter will not effectively cover both cities. That is why we at Pure Elements individually customize our system to your water’s distinct problems. This is something you will not see talked about in whole house water filtration reviews. The media used in the filters must be able to filter the exact chemicals and contaminants found in the client’s water or they are not being effective enough to give the proper protection.

This is an easy question to answer. By employing whole house water filtration systems, the water from every tap will end up being as high in quality as most bottled waters and in some cases even better quality. Being able to use the good tasting water out of your faucets is inexpensive. Using an in home water filter enables you to buy reusable steel or aluminum water bottles thereby saving money and the environment because you don’t use plastic. Around 38 billion plastic water bottles are added to landfills each year. A good way to put an end to this is by using a whole house filter.
It is easy for a home water filtering system to address the problem of heavy metals in your water but only if done properly. Pure Elements focuses on this very problem with each of their HealthyHome Solution water filters. Iron, lead, mercury, arsenic, zinc and silver are greatly reduced due to the design of this water filter and conditioner. Many of our competitors DO NOT have this component in their filters. Their systems lack the ability to pull out heavy metals. While doing research on whole home water filters, be sure to make sure that the filter you purchase has the capability of reducing heavy metals.
