Water is continuously recycled. It is used to drink, to bathe in, and to carry effluents away.  Because of water’s universal property to carry contaminants, it is used and abused. Once it is used, the water companies collect and recycle millions of gallons of water a day to be re-used for personal, agricultural and industrial use. The quality of the resulting municipal supplied water can be highly variable.

The water companies have the mammoth task of removing a huge number of pollutants such as pesticides, chemical effluents, toxins and sewage from our water. At the treatment plant heavy metals and inorganic compounds may be added to the water treatment process.  Both chlorine and, increasingly, fluoride are also added to our drinking water.

On the way to our taps, water can pick up asbestos from old concrete pipes, rust, lead particles and dirt. The glass of water you take from the tap has had a long eventful journey but is it clean enough to drink or could it be cleaner and better for us?

How pure is the water you drink? You who drink it are the best judge of that!!!
