Your Children & Water

  Your kid is active and may lose one to two quarts of water by the end of the day. That water needs to be replenished throughout the day. And, it's not just their activity that makes kids need water, it's vital to their healthy growth and development. Water can also help play a positive role in managing your child's weight.

  Every parent wants what is best for their children. That’s why we encourage kids to eat fruits and vegetables, low fat foods, and to get plenty of exercise. After all, what is more important than ensuring the health of future generations? One important area that often doesn’t get enough consideration regarding children’s health is the quality of the water they’re drinking. We all know that drinking enough water is very important for good health. However, it’s just as important to ensure that kids are drinking cleaner water free of potentially harmful contaminants.

  A good water filtration system removes many contaminants from your water that treatment facilities may have missed. Remember that water can also become contaminated after it is treated due to low water pressure or cracked pipes, so it is a good idea to filter all your home’s drinking water.

  Water filters also remove most of the chlorine from drinking water. Chlorine is what usually gives city water an unpleasant taste. Once most of the chlorine is removed, the water tastes better, and the kids are more likely to fill their glass with it.

  Babies and young children are more vulnerable to any illnesses and diseases that waterborne contaminants can carry. With a good water filter, most of these contaminants are removed, and your children are kept safe.
