Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment System Homeowners' Best Defense for Industrial Pollutants Suspected to Be in Southeast Michigan's Water

Online, June 16, 2013 (Newswire.com) - A home reverse osmosis water purification system is Southeastern Michigan's homeowners' best defense against dangerous impurities that a watchdog organization says may be present in the area's water supply.

According to a report from the National Resource Defense Council, Detroit is among 11 US cities whose water supply is at risk from contaminants from runoff and industrial or sewage contamination.

As recently as June 7, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality was reviewing an $18 million proposal to cleanup water and soil contaminants - including chromium and lead, volatile organic compounds and other solvents -- at three former Lansing-area General Motors properties, according to a report in the Lansing State Journal.

Water filtration systems can remove many of these types of impurities, but carbon-based systems won't filter out sodium, chloride, sulfate, salts, high Total Dissolved Solids (TSDs), metals and other elements that may be present in the area's water supply.

Only a reverse osmosis home water treatment system can guarantee that these impurities are removed so that your home's water supply is safe and unadulterated.

Reverse osmosis water purification systems are not only effective at removing many different kinds of minerals and contaminants that can affect the taste, safety and quality of your water, but they also are compact and environmentally friendly.
