Saratoga Water Quality Annual Report
CITY WATER FILTER INSTALLS THREE WATER TREATMENT PRODUCTS IN SARATOGA
WHOLE HOUSE CARBON FILTER, WATER SOFTENER, & 6-STAGE REVERSE OSMOSIS ALKALINE WATER FILTER.
Main Water Issues Saratogo
1. Hardness of water – Contains high levels of calcium and magnesium which cause water spots and dry skin and hair. City Water Filter installs a commercial quality water softener, Hankscraft (48,000 Grain) Water Softener to most homes in Saratoga. The water softener is metered and minimizes water and salt waste. If you don’t like the slick feel of Softened Water. We offer an Eco-Friendly option with the NuWater Water Conditioner.
2. Chloramines – Chlormines are used by your water utiilities to disinfect the water supply. Chloramines are created by combining chlorine and ammonia which creates a strong residual that is difficult to remove. City Water Filter installs a whole house carbon filter to your home which is a catalytic and granular activated carbon. Catalytic carbon is the only carbon that removes chloramines. The whole house carbon filter has two purposes, it protects the water softener from chloramines, and the whole house carbon filter removes chemicals from the shower.
3. Chromium– California Environmental Protection Agency had suggested the standard should be 0.02 parts per billion for Chromium(VI). Our Leaders weighed the health factors against costs of removing the Chromium(VI). The new California standard of 10 parts per billion is 500 times higher than advised by CalEPA! See your Water Quality Report, it exceeds 0.02 parts per billion. City Water Filter offers the 6-Stage Reverse Osmosis to remove the Chromium and provide Health Giving properties that also taste better than any water you can buy.
There is a new concern on the Horizon: Fluoride!
According to the San Jose Mercurty New article dated 12/19/2012. The city is over due in the plans to retrofit local water plants to bring the Fluoridated water. They said would take about two years to finalize the details, back in 2012. City Water suspects everything will be operational for the fluoride addition to your water during 2016. A Fluoride tank can easily be installed to your whole house water filter to remove this toxic endocrine disruptor. Fluoride Supplements have Never Been Approved by the FDA! The CDC and ADA Now Advise to Avoid Using Fluoride! Many City Water Filter customers have opted to install reverse osmosis systems combined with a fluoride filter to properly remove the fluoride and chloramines from drinking water. A The Whole House Filtration System with a Fluoride tank is needed to treat both drinking and bathing water. You don’t want to absorb into your skin or breath into your lungs these chemicals either.
