Sacramento Water Quality Report 2018
Water purification needs will be customized by your location.
City Water Filter installs three products in Sacramento to address the water quality concerns
Whole House Carbon Filter, Water Softener & 6-Stage Reverse Osmosis with Alkaline water filter
Main issues with Water Quality for Sacramento:
1. Fluoride – Most importantly, your water is Fluoridated. We recommend removal of this toxic Endocrine Disruptor and offer the fluoride tank with the whole house water filter. 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 remove the fluoride. A Whole House water filtration system that is customized to remove sediment, chloramine, and fluoride is recommended to treat drinking and bathing water.
2. 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.
3. Disinfection Byproducts – Such as ACH and DBP’s. The chemicals are ineffective and pose significant health concerns. The levels were found way above the EPA safe levels of 80 parts per billion. The city added this carcinogens to water supplies until May of 2014. Check out this news story on ABC10.com titled, “Sacramento residents exposed to carcinogen in their drinking water.” Also, please click here to read article.
4. Hard Water – might be a concern because of the damage created by mineral deposits clogging your pipes and appliances because your water is sourced from both ground and well water.
City Water Filter offers the Fleck 7000sxt water softener to solve this issue. When installing this whole house water softener a reverse osmosis system needs to be installed to your kitchen sink to efficiently remove the sodium. Sometimes on older homes, plumbing needs to be bypassed in order to not irrigate with softened water.- City Water Filter now offers an Eco Friendly scale prevention for the whole house without the the use of salt, chemicals, or electricity. This Water Descaler prevents hard water scale from pipes, water heaters, tubs, showers and sinks. Protects and increases life expectancy of appliances. Use less soap and detergent while delivering greater cleaning effectiveness. You get conditioned water without the slippery feel.
