Impacts of Hard Water

July 25, 2020

Impacts of Hard Water

We can bet you have seen this white formation on the water taps and showerheads installed in your home.
And these are the only visible signs that make you ask yourself,

“Oh God. There’s a lot of cleaning to do.”

BUT WAIT….

It’s more than just cleaning.

It’s something that groundwater gets while travelling through nature.
Today we’ll reveal what’s actually the reason behind it.
But before that let us remind you of our happiest memories.

Well, the earliest memory of our childhood, reminds us how our mothers and grandma used “Alum” or “Fitkari” (as it’s known all over India) to clean water from impurities. That’s a popular remedy that helped but there’s more to the water that we use today.

IT’S HARD WATER

What is Hard Water ?

The water on our earth moves through soil and rocks. And while travelling, the water gets dissolved with very small amounts of minerals. This water holds them all as solution.
Well, the two most common minerals that dissolve in water are-
CALCIUM AND MAGNESIUM.

And these minerals make water “hard”.
Thus the term, “Hard Water”.

N.B. The hardness in water goes up as the calcium and magnesium content amplifies. And there are other trace minerals too that get dissolved in water- iron, manganese, zinc and aluminium.

But again your mind pops up with a question:

IS HARD WATER SAFE TO USE ?

The truth is,

Hard water is safe to drink for now, but in longer term it will lead to problems that will prove to be costly and inconvenient.

Some of the very common impacts of hard water are:

Restricts flow of water

The magnesium and calcium carbonates dissolved in water gets deposited as off-white chalky solids (also called as scales) on the inside parts of water heaters and piping systems.

This scale grows hard with time and restricts the flow of water by pipes.

In simple words, Hard Water deposits clog plumbing and sanitary installations that ultimately requires pipe replacement and extra expenditure.

Water Spots on Dishes

It’s pretty common to notice white residue on our dishes even after good washing.
This is due to the hard water deposits that appear upon drying of the crockery items.

Those rough white spots make a bad impression when serving recently washed plates and bowls to our guests.

The same goes with hotels, restaurants and cafes too.

You may remove them by using a cleaning cloth. But, even after these preventions these ugly stains will cause wearing of cookware, cutlery and all other crockery equipment washed using hard water.

Skin Irritation

Every morning we look up to the first shower that will refresh us for a new day.

But who knows that the water that greets our hair may cause skin irritation and other problems like eczema (found mostly in children).

Well, your skin may have resisted it.

But everyone’s skin has a different sensitivity towards water.

And when it’s Hard Water, we suggest you to install an easy to use water filter that’s specially made for showers and taps.

DID YOU KNOW: Hard Water creates a film on glass doors of shower space and also on shower walls and bath tubs

STICKY & DULL HAIR

It’s really good to get our water checked for its’ hardness.

But why?

Its’ because while bathing we use soap that pairs up with hard water.
This hard water leaves a film of sticky soap curd on your skin.And this soap curd goes on to make your hair dull, weak and tough to manage.

In some cases the hard water has also been found responsible for hair loss.Even the soap doesn’t lathers or rinses completely, giving way to flat hair.

But there’s more, that you have observed in daily life.Seen some people’s hair turning brownish with time.

Well, its’ not magic. Its’ because of hard water that these people have been using for a very-very long time.And this hard water has stolen their natural hair colour from them.

You can prevent any sort of that issue happening with you by making smart moves.

And what’s that?

When it’s Hard Water, we suggest you to install an easy to use premium water filter that’s specially made for showers and taps and has been ordered over 10,000 times online.

10 Stage Advanced Filter for Shower & Taps

Stains on Bathtub & sinks

A pure white bathtub and shiny sink.

You, me and everyone wants that forever.

But hard water has its’ own plans to leave a mark on our lovely bath ware.

Every time we use a bathtub, it receives plenty of water.
And day in and day out, we use it in the same way by filling it first, bathing and then draining out the water.

And suddenly one day you notice stains on your bathtub surface and also on your sinks.
Boom comes a shocker.

Well, its’ all due to the invisible hard water deposits left on these surfaces.
This calls for cleaning and rubbing these bath ware with a hard cloth/brush.

So much of time and effort lost in cleaning.

What’s the solution? Its’ simple. Use a filter that helps you get soft water flowing from the taps, hand showers and bathroom faucets.

Will help keep your bath tubs and sinks look like shiny new purchase.

Sore Throats

As we discussed in the beginning that hard water contains minerals like calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc and Aluminum etc.

And here you may have a valid question,

“Aren’t all these minerals good for our body?”

Yes, but only in a limited content.
As, the taste of hard water is quite different from soft water, so are its impact upon people’s dietary needs. To your surprise, some people even get sore throats from regular consumption of water that’s high on mineral content.

And in some cases even reports of kidney problems have been observed because of the patient drinking hard water for a very long term.

Clothes Feel Rough

Hard Water has a direct impact on your shirts, pants, jeans, etc.

As clothes and linen that are washed with hard water feel rough and leave a dull image.
Even when laundered in hard water the clothes may look dingy and will feel scratchy.
In some cases, even bad odors have been reported.

Its’ very important to note here that all these impact on clothes happen in longer term. In short term they’ll miss your eye.

But on the other side, even the water appliance have to use more energy with hard water, thereby leading to increased water bills.

Swimming Pools

The easiest way to know about hard water in swimming pool is by looking for a cloudy(milky) appearance of the water.

This is also known as turbidity. Turbidity forms because of insoluble carbonates present in the water. Its’ because of the pH being excessively high, i.e pH>7.6

That’s why chlorine is used in recommended amounts to treat this hard water.

And hard water is also the reason behind, why some people get skin irritation even after having a great time in the pool.

Overheating in Boilers

Even inside the boiler, the hard water deposits impair the flow of heat towards the water.

This takes down the heating efficiency and leads to overheating of boiler components.
And this overheating results in failure of boiler and heat exchanges too.

In all, it becomes a huge cost expenditure that wastes a lot of time, effort and money.

7 Benefits of a Good Shower Filter

February 9, 2020

7 Benefits of a Good shower Filter

Long Showers. Good Music. Deep Thoughts.

A good shower time is waiting for you.

Wanna have a 10 Minute shower ?

Or a 5 Minute One ?

Well, all of us have our own versions of rich shower experiences.
We even look up for a fresh shower at the start of a new day.
And also a soothing shower after a long working day.

How cool is it that our shower solves it all within a few moments.

By the way, we even love how millennials and the younger ones love playing rock songs during a shower! And the mood lifts up with good vibes.
That’s the magic a shower does for you.

But there’s more to the shower than these happy scenes. It’s something that’s not visible to us. And yes we mean it.

Today’s blog post is specially curated by Purifit team to help you and your family learn the benefits of buying a good shower filter.

Welcome back and we hope you are in good health.

So, the point is, a million gallons of water is supplied by a huge network of municipal water supply systems that are well connected to your homes. And every day we use this water for so many times. During washing, during bathing, etc.

But what gains importance is the water that we use for our bathing.

Because your lovely shower, sprinkles you with water that flows all through your body. And there are pretty good chances that it has hard water elements and chlorine in it.

We even go a step further to ensure our shiny new showers are cleaned every month.

Well, that serves very little to the ill effects of water on our skin and hair.

So, what’s the easiest way out?

Its’ simple- A GOOD SHOWER FILTER.

And why should you buy a shower filter? Because, after reading this blog, dedicated to shower filter benefits, you’ll happily buy one.

So, let’s start.

Provides Soft & Clean Skin

Our skin is exposed to a lot of germs, bacteria, airborne pollutants and even to the build-up of dead skin cells.

We wash it, we apply cleansers, moisturizers and the list goes on.

In simple words, we spend a lot on beauty products that promise of skin softness.

But all of them have no use, if your skin is not washed properly with soft water that keeps your skin hydrated. And a shower filter comes to the rescue.

Shower Filter has an alkaline layer that improves the pH level of water and thereby it keeps your facial skin and whole skin texture smooth.

Because it helps in perfect removal of dirt, oil and other unwanted elements that make your skin dry and rough

And its’ useful for everyone in your family.From kids to spouse and parents, all of them need water that’s free of contaminants and takes care of their health.

Removes Chlorine From Water

If you remember, we were always asked by our parents, coaches and science teachers to get a shower after getting out from the pool.

Ever thought why a shower after swimming is necessary?

Its’ because the pool water is treated with chlorine.
Chlorine is used for disinfection of water.

And chlorine is also used by the municipal authorities to treat water and disinfect it.

But large amount of chlorine is harmful for your skin, scalp, hair, eyes and lungs.

Chlorine kills the good bacteria and natural oils needed by our skin to maintain softness and smoothness.
It leads to dry skin, acne problems, itchiness and rashes.

Well, a shower filter helps in reducing this chlorine from water.

Because it is equipped with a Chlorine Removal Layer that removes up to 95% of chlorine and other bacteria from water. This layer efficiently employs KDF Technology (Kinetic Degradation Fluxion) for chlorine removal on a daily basis.

And, thereby you get sure that the water is safe for bathing purpose and there are very few chances of dry skin and other skin diseases.

Reduces Hair-fall & Dandruff

We have seen our friends and close ones going through hair fall at a very early age.

While some may attribute it to heredity, but there are strong reasons of water having a major role in Hair-fall, Discoloration and Dandruff.

Hard Water leaves a lot of unwanted minerals on your scalp, which ultimately get trapped. Thereby causing dehydration of scalp and roughness of hair.

Even Chlorine has a role to play, here too.

Regular exposure to chlorine, causes damage to the hair follicles that hold your hair.

These hair follicles lose the nourishment they need and you see hair-falling off from your head. All because of chlorine that sucks out natural oils needed by hair and skin.

It even leads to dandruff-like symptoms.

So, its’ quite clear that you need a shower filter that fights hair-fall, dandruff and grey hair issues.

And why a shower filter?

Its’ because of the strong presence of Vitamin-C layer and also the very important Hardness Removal Layer.

How do they help?

Well, Vitamin-C filter layer effectively removes chloramide & chlorine, by neutralizing them.

And to your surprise, Vitamin-C is very rich when it comes to fighting hair issues.

Its antioxidant properties help fighting dandruff. And Vitamin-C produces protein that enhances hair growth and also fights against the effects of UV Rays.

On the other hand, Hardness removal filter, reduces the mineral content of water that damages your scalp. It ensures that your hair receives soft water that maintains its gloss and shine.

Maintains Strong Water Pressure

Hard Water contains calcium, magnesium and other minerals that lead to the formation of scales or say off-white chalky layer inside the shower as well as also on the shower head’s opening.

In some cases, this off-white formation is also visible on the shower arm.

This lime scale results in inconsistent water pressure and in longer term it means spending more money on replacing the shower heads.

And you have to again take a trip to the bathroom fittings supplier and even hire a plumber to fix it.

Whoof ! We understand that all of us have other important things in life to focus on. Why waste time here?

Well, a shower filter solves all this for you.

All the micro particles, hard water salts and sediments are collected by the stainless steel mesh present in the filter.

The Filter is even equipped with 2 Stages of Polypropylene Cotton Layer at the start and at the end, which ensures full removal of unwanted particles from the water.
In all, it saves you money and time.

And gives consistent output and flow of purified water.

So, now you know that a good shower filter is value for money because it cares for your bathroom and the water you use daily.

Prevents Bad Odor from Water

You’ll often get suggested for buying an activated carbon filter that helps in air purification as well as they also help combat pollutants and bad odors.

But their individual pricing is too high, regardless of the multiple benefits they provide.
But wait….

SHOWER FILTERS HAVE ACTIVATED CARBON LAYER TOO!

This activated carbon layer:

Removes Bad odor, Pungent smell
Prevents Bacteria Growth
Traps Harmful Organic Compounds, and
Removes pesticides, herbicides, too

So many benefits in one pack of shower filter.

And buying a shower filter proves to be an all in one deal to have a healthy shower time at any time.

Protects from Cancer & Serious Health Problems

This is the most important role of water shower.

We’ll rather say, it deserves topmost priority.

Although not visible to the naked eye, but there are heavy metals too in the water. Heavy Metals like mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic, etc. that can cause serious damage to skin, eyes and they also contain cancer causing materials.

Even World Health Organization has listed all these as Top 10 Chemicals of Major Public Health Concern.

Source: https://www.who.int/ipcs/features/chemicals_concern/en/

These toxic heavy metals get mixed with the water and have also been known to cause neurological issues in children. So, children are at higher risk of getting these diseases in long run.

Well, dangerous amounts of lead is collected in the water that’s sitting in the pipes overnight. That’s why it’s advisable to run tap for a few minutes before using the water for bathing.

The source of lead is attributed to the home plumbing systems that experience corrosion by water.

So, how does a Shower Filter helps in removing heavy metals?

Well, Shower Filters by Purifit have a “Heavy Metals Removal layer”.

That’s quite effective in removing heavy metals like mercury, lead and iron to such an extent that they are deemed non-injurious while interacting with human body.

This is the most important use of Shower Filters for water purification.

Helps in Proper Respiration

As we state again that removal of chlorine from water is very important considering the health of people of all ages.

Its’ due to the chlorine fumes from shower water that cause serious breathing problems.

Source: http://www.bioray.com/content/Chlorine.pdf

Chlorine is a halogen. And inhalation of this halogen, irritates the walls of our respiratory system.

Even daily exposure to chlorine fumes from shower water can lead to asthama and bronchitis among other respiratory problems.

Source: https://realtytimes.com/advicefromtheexpert/item/48354-10-important-benefits-of-using-a-shower-filter

A shower filter prevents respiratory problems by removing 95% of chlorine from the water. Thereby, making shower water safe for bathing.

That’s the reason, why the chlorine removal layer in a shower filter goes a long way to safeguard you and your loved ones from untreated water.

N.B. Some studies have also shown that frequent swimmers and lifeguards at public pools with high levels of chlorine, face serious breathing problems

VERY EASY TO USE

A Shower Filter from Purifit can be used with head showers and handheld showers too.

You just have to buy one from the comfort of your home and as soon as you get the delivery, you can easily fit the shower filters on the bathroom showers of all rooms.

Comes with a User Manual that makes it even faster to install one in your bathroom.

And ta-da. Congratulations. You made a good decision by buying a shower filter that takes care of you and your family’s health and hygiene.

Why Chlorine in Water is Harmful and Can Cause Cancer

February 9, 2020

Why Chlorine in Water is Harmful and Can Cause Cancer

AND WHY ITS HIGH TIME TO SAVE YOUR HEALTH AND WEALTH FROM SERIOUS DISEASES CAUSED BY CHLORINE

What if we told you that this blog will shake your beliefs on the water you use ?

Sounds surprising. Right?

So, let’s take a lil drive back in time.
A time when we were attending science classes at school. Such a good time it was.

And those were the moments when our general science lessons should have made us learn, on how we are all using water that’s unhealthy for many a reasons.

Part of this problem is a chemical that’s invisible to our eyes.

But here’s a shocker- Without using this chemical, your water cannot be free of bacteria and waterborne diseases.

And here comes the obvious question. Which chemical is used to treat water?

Its’ none other than “Chlorine”.

Well, we were just taught that chlorine is used to clean swimming pools or it is used to disinfect water. That’s it.

Should we need more? Of course. In today’s time we have to.

After Covid-19 outbreak we have learnt a great deal that health & hygiene should be our topmost priority.

Well today, Purifit reveals the unknown truths of chlorine inside your water that harms your health in the long run.

First let’s take a quick ride of the basics.

WHAT IS CHLORINE?

Chlorine is a chemical that’s used as a disinfectant for drinking water and swimming water. It gains a significant value because chlorine is added in water, to kill bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms present in water.

This process of treating water with chlorine is known as “Chlorination”.

And chlorination helps in preventing the spread of waterborne diseases.

Today, chlorination has become a very popular method of disinfection and is used for treating water all around the world.

But, is it harmful to us?

Well, as per safewater.org

“In drinking water, the concentration of chlorine is usually very low and is thus not a concern in acute exposure. More of a concern is the long term risk of cancer due to chronic exposure to chlorinated water.”

Sigh, the second sentence on chlorine as a cause of cancer, is a hard-hitting truth.

But in our modern world, we have made good progress to get you rid of diseases caused by chlorination. Purifit assures you that you have landed at the right spot where we’ll offer you good reasons to easily filter out chlorine from the water you use every day.

But, here’s another one.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CHLORINATION?

Here, in India, municipal bodies have this responsibility to disinfect the water that’s supplied to our home.

And the most common disinfectant they use is “chlorine”.

Its’ because chlorination process is easy to implement as compared with other water treatment methods. And chlorination is used to kill bacteria, viruses and other microbes in water.

N.B. No one shares the water quality report with Indian Citizens. As there’s no framework setup for sharing the parameters of potable drinking water with the Indian citizens. The only progress witnessed is the formation of a draft policy. This policy recommends to set up water testing labs at district, state and national levels.

And how do they use chlorine in water? Let’s answer this.

FORMS OF CHLORINE USED FOR WATER TREATMENT

To your surprise, the common types of chlorine used for disinfecting water, exists in three forms:

Chlorine Gas (Cl2) : Least expensive form of chlorine in gaseous state

Calcium Hypochlorite Ca(ClO)2 : Powdered form of chlorine that’s used for water purification of both, wastewater and drinking water. It’s even used for disinfection of swimming pools. Also available in tablet form & easily dissolves in water.

Sodium Hypochlorite (NaClO) : Available in Liquid form, it has a light yellow color and has strong odor of chlorine.

And here comes the bigger question of concern:

HOW CHLORINE HARMS YOUR HEALTH?

So, if you are drinking water or taking a shower, you have no time or reason to think on how pure the water is. And the chances are high, that the water contains harmful elements and unwanted levels of chlorine.

It’s an open secret that we get exposed to chlorine in multiple ways.

Very common are:

Drinking and Eating
Breathing the fumes created by chlorine, and
Absorption through skin, eyes, nose, and ears

Well, there’s an alarm of concern too- Long exposure to chlorine leads to production of free radicals within human body. These free radicals are known to be the cause of cancer.

They even damage the cellular barriers of our lungs.

DID YOU KNOW: According to U.S. Council of Environmental Quality, “Risk of Developing Cancer is 93% higher among people who drink or are otherwise exposed to chlorinated water than those whose water does not contain chlorine”.

But wait. There’s something very shocking to learn-

“Chlorine used in water reacts with organic matter present in water and gives rise to a disinfection-by-product (DBP) called as Trihalomethanes (THMs).

These chemicals are associated with serious health effects such as cancer and adverse reproductive outcomes.”

And this is just one serious illness. There are more visible symptoms that are caused due to the exposure of chlorine. Let’s see which ones.

SYMPTOMS OF CHLORINE

We found the most common symptoms reported among humans to be:

Breathing Difficulty : Inhalation of Chlorine Gas(chloroform) goes directly into our blood stream.

Inhalation of chlorine may also cause asthma and bronchitis.
These illnesses don’t show up initially, but with passing of time and use of unfiltered water, you’ll find difficulty in breathing caused by the breathing of toxicity of chlorine gas.

Irritation in Eyes : You’ll observe temporary symptoms, like redness in your eyes and blurriness. Well, red eye is the result of dehydration caused by chlorine when it removes the tear film of your eyes.

While, Conjunctivitis has also been reported to be caused due to chlorine.

Irritation of Skin : Our skin absorbs chlorine while bathing and showering.

More so, when we are bathing with hot water, our skin pores are opened up. This leads to absorption of chlorine and other chemicals present in water that eventually cause irritation on your skin.

Cough & Sore Throat : People with sensitive airways or allergy to chlorine may experience this issue of coughing while exercising or while laughing.

You’ll also find runny nose and sneezing.
That’s why it is recommended to take a shower before and after using the swimming pool.

Moreover, it is always advised to install a shower filter with an activated carbon layer. Coz this carbon filter with charcoal granules, performs molecular bonding of chlorine ions with the charcoal.

Thereby, assuring you a flow of clean & healthy water for your family.

Congestion & Tightness in Chest : Since chlorine is a toxic irritant for our respiratory system, it may cause damage to our respiratory tract and nasal passages.

Inflammation and obstruction of airways causes chest tightness and congestion. And then the patient requires treatment similar to the one prescribed by Asthma patients.

You’ll find less concentration of chlorine in drinking water. And that’s not a concern. But due to chronic exposure to chlorinated water, there are higher chances of carcinogenic elements leading to cancer in long term.

Well, it becomes really important to note that Amount of chlorine used is dependent on the amount of impurities present in water. In some cases, the water will need greater amounts of chlorine. While, in other cases the water will need lesser amounts for disinfection

HOW TO REMOVE CHLORINE FROM WATER?

Well, there are several popular methods that promise of water that gets free of chlorine and chloramines after you boil the water or treat it with expensive treatment systems.

But after an extensive research, Purifit team would recommend you to try a Shower Filter with Activated Carbon layer in it.

But why a shower filter?

Because there are multiple Benefits of a Good Shower Filter.

And foremost of them is-

A shower filter has Carbon Layers that, up to a large scale, remove 95% of chlorine, chloramines, bad odor, Trihalomethanes(Cancer causing elements) and other harmful Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).

It is also enriched with KDF(Kinetic Degradation Fluxion) filtering method.

This method uses copper-zinc alloy to convert free chlorine to chloride by performing oxidation.

And now the obvious question comes up.

IS SHOWER FILTER ENOUGH?

Well, it’s a perfect answer for getting clean water for use while bathing, showering and swimming.

But we use water for various other applications too. From taps that are used for drinking water and the taps that are used for supplying water for washing clothes.

And at Purifit, we care for all your needs to ensure a clean water supply at your homes, offices, restaurants, schools, etc.
