Safety 101: Quality of Water at Home
Posted On: July 15, 2021
How sure are you about the quality of water you have at home?
Without proper testing, water can carry unknown contaminants, as well as bacteria, which can make it non-potable. It may taste alright, but this kind of water can cause some health risks, unless proven otherwise.
Even previously treated potable water can get contaminated, too, and therefore no longer drinkable. One example is when municipally treated water that has already been tested show that there is a presence of dangerous contaminants. This could prompt a ‘boil water advisory’.
One of the most common temporary remedy is to boil water for 20 minutes or more. this can remove impurities and make your water safe to drink.
How about bottled water? Is it safe to drink? There are regulatory standards for bottled water quality, but unfortunately, not all are filled with water that meets those standards and regulations. Without supporting lab results and/or documented treatment processes, you can simply assume that bottled water is just tap water that’s actively carbon filtered.
There are some manufacturers of bottled water who claim that they have UV filtered water, even assuring consumers that their product is free of any bacteria, and had been through water distillation or reverse osmosis.
Monitoring and safety standards in many areas are not able to keep pace with the market supply of bottled water for consumer demand. If you are thinking twice about the safety of bottled water, you should take steps to find other sources of safe drinking water.
As a consumer, you need to be proactive in making sure that the water your family drinks is really potable water and is safe for everyone. There are some water filtration systems and products that can help make sure your water is free from contamination. Choosing the right one depends on the kind of water you have and the metals and microbes found in it. Talk to an expert who can tell you your best option.
Your body needs water, but water can only be truly beneficial if it’s clean and safe for your health!

Very pleased with the installation of our new furnace and A/C unit. From quotation stage to the completion of the job Twintech was very professional.
Thank you for a job well done.

My old water heater quit on me. I called TwinTech. In less than 4 days, I had my new water heater installed and the old one taken away. The whole process was quick, easy, pleasant, and well done. This is the third time I've dealt with TwinTech and I've been satisfied each time.

I had them replace my furnace last year. When it came time for the air conditioner this year, I did not hesitate to call Twintech again. I will also have them perform regular maintenance on them.

We required a new HVAC replacement after running the old
system for 18 years.
Dave understood our requirements and gave us a quote that
covered all the necessary items.
Installation was fast and very tidy. Everything works as
it should. Our thanks to Greg, Mitch and others for their
excellent work. Recommend this family owned business to
anyone else, considering HVAC or other work.

I needed a new furnace and A/C to replace my 21 yr. old units, and went to the internet to view potential companies in May, I received 3 quotes,
and chose Twintech based on their salesman Dave who was very detailed and covered off everything on what Twintech was all about,
an extremely dedicated company with so many years of experience, and after reading the on line reviews I was sold on Twintech, who did not disappoint as the installation team were top notch with Greg leading,
I would highly recommend this company without any doubts, in my books they are first class all the way. Our new Amana furnace and A/C are working perfectly !
