3 reasons you should invest in a water filtration system

In addition to pumps and rainwater harvesting systems, we at Anglian Pumping Services also offer a comprehensive range of water filtration systems. Filtration and purification are essential for making water safe, clean and drinkable. But do you really need a filtration system in your own home? We believe that the answer is ‘yes’. Of course, the water that comes out your tap has been filtered and purified to ensure that it doesn’t pose a health hazard, but having your own filtration system offers a number of advantages, which we’ll discuss here.

1. Increasing the usability of harvested rainwater and ground-pumped water

Naturally, rainwater and water that you pump from the ground can be used for certain things without filtration or purification. For example, many people use harvested rainwater to water their garden. However, if you plan on using pumped or harvested water for washing yourself, cleaning your home or even drinking, you will need to ensure that it is clean, pure and safe first.

A sufficiently powerful and advanced water filtration system can make water that has been pumped from the ground or harvested safe and pure enough for domestic purposes.

If you already have a water pump or rainwater harvesting system in place, investing in a filtration system can increase the number of ways you can use the water that you collect. Just remember that there are many different types of filtration system available: make sure you invest in one that can make your collected water clean and drinkable if you plan on ingesting or cleaning with it! 

2. Improving the quality of your tap water

While your tap water has been filtered enough to be safe, it isn’t completely pure. A home filtration system can be used to make it purer and healthier. This may be useful if you have a health problem that affects what you can drink. After all, if you suffer from health issues of this kind, it’s best to make sure that your water is completely uncontaminated. Of course, improving the quality of your water is worthwhile even if you’re in perfect health.

3. Providing water security in an emergency

In the unlikely event that your local area is struck by a natural disaster or manmade emergency, procuring clean, drinkable water may become a problem. Investing in a water filtration system for your home is a great way to ensure that you will always have access to water which is safe to ingest, no matter what the future holds.

One of our most popular products in this range is the Aquada UV Altima filter that treats water supplies with bacteria problems.
