Your potable water must be safe and clean to consume. Aside from being our most valuable resource, it is also essential to our health and well-being.
According to a UNICEF and the World Health Organization report, billions worldwide suffer from poor access to water, sanitation, and hygiene. A billion people worldwide do not have water from sources located on-premises or source that takes less than thirty minutes to collect water from, are free from contamination and are available when needed.
Fortunately, our drinking water in Australia is of very high standards. However, drinking tap water or directly from plastic bottles can pose a few problems:
- Dust contamination and sediment from pipes
- Chlorine and other chemicals from the sanitation process
- Pesticides from pipes
- Heavy Metals — a study shows water supply may have arsenic, boron, lead and mercury.

Only Have Safe Drinking Water Flowing Through Your Home
Installing Sydney water filters or purification systems is more than filtering tap water. Without a water filtration solution, you risk your health by drinking Sydney water from your household taps or store-bought plastic bottles.
Your whole house will benefit from installing a water filter in Sydney. Also, with your businesses, if you have commercial filtration systems in place. In addition, a whole-house water filter means:
- You are removing chemicals such as chlorine, cryptosporidium, lead and other harmful chemicals (including fluoride removal and activated carbon contaminant removal)
- You are eliminating rust from pipe breakdown from your water supply
- Avoiding possible asbestos exposure
- Health advantages and a stronger immune system for you and your family
- Save money and the environment by not buying bottled water
- Better-tasting food (if you’re making food that requires water)
Lead contamination and poisoning are motivations for installing filtered water systems.
You can’t easily identify lead in tap water by sight, smell, or odour. So lead poisoning can be challenging to detect. Symptoms don’t typically appear until the body has consumed dangerous amounts. The most vulnerable ones who can absorb this toxin more quickly are children and infants, making them more susceptible and immediately reactive to the health impact of lead in drinking water.
In some cases, extreme exposure can result in seizures. High levels of lead exposure can be severe and life-threatening. In children, symptoms of severe lead poisoning are the following:
- Irritability
- weight loss
- abdominal pain
- loss of hearing
- fatigue
- vomiting
Adults with lead poisoning can incur high blood pressure, joint and muscle pain, difficulty with memory or concentration, and harm to reproductive health.
If you’ve been exposed to lead in water, contact your healthcare provider, even if there are no lead poisoning symptoms. The dangerous repercussions of lead to your health can stay undetected in the body for years. A blood test can confirm whether you or your child has been exposed to dangerously high lead levels and what follow-up actions are required to lessen the adverse effects.
