Should I consider a water filtration system for my house?
How important is it to use a water filtration system on your home? As much as people are being more environmentally sound, it hasn’t always been the case, especially here on Long Island. There are a number of superfund sites with contamination seeping from these site into the local groundwater. While news of contaminated water can be scary, there are things you can do to protect yourself and your family. A lot of people have a water filtration system somewhere in the house to use for cooking or the morning cup of coffee, but did you know you can put a filtration system on your home’s main line?
