The Great Lakes are a vast system of five interconnected lakes that stretch from west of Thunder Bay, Ontario to the Atlantic Ocean. Although the lakes contain an abundance of fresh water, this huge resource is threatened by human activity and pollution. 

There are several different methods used by filtration systems to purify water. These include activated carbon, distillation, and reverse osmosis. Reverse osmosis filtration is a commonly used method, but most people do not really understand how it works.

A simple step-by-step walkthrough to get you from start to finish on installing your new H-300 drinking water system.

Water filtration methods date back to ancient times, but many of those more primitive systems were ineffective. It has taken thousands of years to finally invent a system that thoroughly rids water of harmful bacteria and microbes. Today we have a variety of filtration systems available to us, and the PBS400 is one of the best.

Billions of people rely on groundwater for drinking water. With the ever-growing global population, the amount of waste generated and improper waste disposal has contributed to increased groundwater contamination. Unfortunately, we do not realize there are certain human activities that cause water pollution; many of which occur in our homes.

Life on earth depends on water. Unfortunately, because of decades of abuse and misuse, many of our water resources have become contaminated by all manner of impurities -- some more harmful than others. Municipal water sources, especially, can be subpar in terms of cleanliness and safety, putting households and businesses at risk for poor-tasting drinking water and unsuitable liquid for cooking.

Clean water is vital to our health: we need it for drinking, cooking, and showering. Using a water filtration system in your home is a safe and effective way to ensure you have a good supply of pure water. Filtering water removes bacteria, metals, chemicals, and other contaminants that can found in tap water, even if it passes through a water treatment facility where you live.

Water is life. However, as a result of certain human activities and industrial development, contaminants have found their way into our water sources -- particularly some provided by municipal water supplies. Fortunately, water filtration systems (like the Everpure water filter H-300) can mitigate these issues and provide a healthy and environmentally-friendly source of water.
