I grew up drinking out the hose in the summer …the damage has already been done

Most people think they’re being safe drinking hormone disrupting microplastic water, but truthfully tap water is better for them. The optimal water experience is an RO system

There should be no bacteria in tap water unless The local water treatment plan underdose on chlorine in which they’re required to send a boil water notice to the entire affected area. Other than that, the source of bacteria could only be coming from the piping leading into your house.

Chlorine completely inactivates 99.99% of harmful bacteria. The 00.01% is filtered via anthracite filter beds. Labs testing for harmful bacteria are performed several times a day per EPA regulation.

That person likely has another issue that they attributed to the water.

This is true and PFAS have been a huge topic of discussion across the water treatment industry. The problem is it’s too expensive to filter out. The numbers are astronomical

Yes I live in Canada

yea but i hate the way it tastes so i just drink bottled water from those big packs

No (Michigan)

No. It got past!!!

Jesus Christ. And all that was tax payer money...

Melbourne water

idc where i live i’m never drinking tap water

and yes i’ve chosen the microplastics instead regardless i’m not tryna go to whatever poison they put in your tap

nigga ive drank tap water in the motherland and nothing happened

so of course ima drink water from kitchen faucet im a grown ass man

ye crazy how wasteful the US govt is. (and downright hateful towards its citizens tbfh)

but yeah take a look at APEC water systems. about 250 for an initial undersink system, and the replacement filters is about 100 a year, give or take. it was the best purchase I made in 2022 no question

the unit actually started leaking very slowly last week, one month after the free extended warranty ended. I sent an email and they asked for a picture of the leak plus a screenshot of the original order so I sent em that s***.
within 48hrs I got tracking info for the free replacement part. so I highly recommend their systems.

tap water

reverse osmosis filter water

the whole house systems is rich people s***, but the undersink systems is definitely affordable for a good chunk of people.

I still be drinking that hose water after a run in the hot summer air ngl. it just takes me all the way back to my childhood

LA tap water has every cancer ever made

get a RO system man. microplastics is everywhere but all bottled water companies sell is plastic. most just bottle tap water and mark it up mad stupid

me too lol

yep

My tap water is surprisingly really good.

Drink straight from the faucet and put ice in my cup

One of the best tap waters in the continent where I am

Yep and it's good omg 😭

No but who cares

The perpetual cycle of human suffering.
We will find out the real effects of microplastic consumption in the next 10years
