There are enough reasons to justify why water purifications are a must before consumption so as to lead healthy lives. Researches have proven the presence of over 2100 known contaminants in drinking water in India and the world. These contaminants can even cause death. Yes, 80 percent of all existing diseases including several types of cancer have been attributed to H2O contaminants. Gastro-enteritis, typhoid, cholera, paratyphoid, dysentery, diarrhea, worm infestations are immediate impacts of consuming contaminated H2O.
The conventional method of water purifications is still followed in many parts of the country. It is boiling. But it is not considered effective unless it is boiled for 20 minutes. You can well imagine the amount of fuel spent with every boiling schedule. You will only end up spending more during a year than having invested in an advanced water purifier. At least with an advanced water purifier, you can expect to drink pure H2O for years together. There are also portable systems that are cheap and that which run without electricity or running water.
Why is boiling still not suggested if you go for the twenty minutes boiling procedure? This is because, all the dissolved oxygen, which is required in our body for easy digestion, will escape during boiling and make the H2O tasteless. Concentration of the chemical impurities will only increase as they cannot be removed. Use of an advanced water purifier is justified here. Boiling as water purifications method will not suffice or prove effective.
Drinking water in India, especially supplied to homes from municipal bodies, turns smelly or is slightly colored during the rainy season. This happens because the river stream, which is a source of H2O for municipal bodies, witnesses an increased bacterial load during the rainy season owing to run off rainwater mixing in the stream. This runoff rainwater comes loaded with pollutants along with agricultural/industrial wastes, eroded top soil, sewage, and sediments. Generally, drinking water in India is treated with the use of bleaching powder, i.e. chlorination. During the rainy season, more bleaching powder exceeding the permissible limit is added to the H2O during treatment. Increased chlorination only results in the formation of chlorine byproducts like trihalomethanes and chloramines that are dangerous to health. Hence the importance of water purifications involving use of advanced purifiers to make drinking water in India fit for consumption. Consider buying purifier of a reputed brand so that you do not regret later.
