Home Water Contaminants in Mid & Southeast Michigan
What are the Hidden Contaminants in Your Water?
Water contaminants are more common than most people think. Chemical elements like chlorine or disinfectant byproducts could remain in your drinking water long after it has left municipal facilities. Minerals like arsenic and lead can seep into your water through the ground or through old, corroded pipes. Pesticides and fertilizers, including PFAS/PFOS/PFOA, can also get into your water. For many common water contaminants, you can taste, smell, or see them, but some are impossible to detect without a water test.
The effects of contaminants in your water could range from mild to extreme. Long-term health effects of drinking water with excess chlorine can lead to asthma and other respiratory problems, especially in children. Pesticides and fertilizers can lead to an increased risk of cancer, infertility, and loss of proper functionality in your eyes, kidneys, and liver. Some contaminants can even be deadly. With a quality home water filtration system installed by experienced professionals, you can limit the amount of dangerous contaminants from your home’s water.
