Safe Drinking with Water Purifiers | CUCKOO Singapore

SAFE DRINKING WITH WATER PURIFIERS

When we turn on our taps, we’d usually expect to have clean water, but tap water often contains contaminants invisible to the naked eye. Regular tap water can contain a variety of impurities and contaminants ranging from lead, copper and chlorine to water-borne bacteria and other pathogens.As clean water is essential for every human being, be it for consumption or cleaning, a reliable water filtration system is important to have.

You may wonder, what do water filters remove and what’s the difference between a water filter and a water purifier? Water filtration is the process of removing or reducing the concentration of sediment in water using physical barriers. Although water filters and water purifiers are both used to treat water, a water filter typically functions to block contaminants that are physical and biological in nature. Water filters do remove most of the fine particulate matter but are unfortunately not as effective against chemical pollutants and viruses.

A water purifier has a broader function that may include processes such as distillation, deionisation, reverse osmosis, and UV treatment that helps transform your tap water into purified water which is suitable for immediate consumption. Purified water is safe for drinking and cooking. Hence, you won’t have to worry about any water-borne diseases or being sickened by chemical contaminants with a water purifier in place as a safeguard.

WHY DO YOU NEED A WATER PURIFIER?


While Singapore’s tap water is indeed safe for consumption thanks to our country’s effective water treatment processes, it may not be a pleasant experience if tap water appears discoloured, contains particles or has an odour. Unfortunately, this isn’t due to a lack of proper water treatment. It is caused by corrosion in the pipes that deliver the water to our homes. A proper water filter system strains out rust and debris – which are the typical suspects behind the foul odour and taste contaminating our running water.

Although the government bodies regulating the cleanliness of our water have significantly reduced the risk of contaminated water making its way to our homes, it’s always wise to be prepared against accidental contamination from post-water disruption or sewage leakage by investing in a reputable water filter system.

Short-term exposure to contaminated water may result in just diarrhoea. However, the long-term effects can be far more severe with health issues ranging from water-borne illnesses to kidney failure, gastrointestinal illness, reproductive problems and even death.

TYPES OF WATER PURIFIERS


Water purifiers or filters come in a multitude of options, so picking one depends entirely on your needs and budget. However, they can generally be classified into three main types:

  • Outdoor water filters
  • Indoor drinking water filters
  • Water dispensers that have hot and cold water functions

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A WATER PURIFIER
