Even the heartiest of crime fighters needs to stay hydrated. But when you get home after a busy day and pour yourself a tall glass of water, you expect to be satiated—not disgusted!
When bacteria and chemicals make their way into your tap water, it can taste like you’re licking Thanos’s Infinity Gauntlet. But you can eliminate these microscopic villains with the help of a water purification system in Overland Park.
At KC Flow Heroes, we have several filtration methods to help clean up your water, so it looks clear and tastes great. Let’s take a look at our options.
Filtration
The first method we use to purify water is filtration. The water filtration process involves pushing water through a membrane with microscopic holes, or pores. These pores allow the water to pass through unimpeded, but they prevent unwanted materials, like metals, bacteria, and chemicals, from passing through with it. This process leaves your water clear and clean.
Distillation
Another method we use to purify water is distillation. If you were ever in the Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts, then you might have boiled water to make sure it was safe to cook with. The process is the same here. The high temperatures involved in the distillation process destroy harmful bacteria, so you don’t have to worry about getting sick after drinking a glass of water.
Ultraviolet
We may also use ultraviolet light to clean your water. Ultraviolet rays can eradicate bacteria, parasites, and viruses. But to make this system even more effective, we filter the water before or after the ultraviolet purification process (depending on the specific unit).
Water Softener
Water with an excess of minerals, like calcium, is known as “hard water,” which can damage your skin and your hair. If you have hard water, we may recommend a water softener. This eliminates the minerals, so you can wash without worry.
Taste the Difference
You drink water to stay healthy, so make sure contaminants in your water system aren’t having the opposite effect. If you think you could benefit from a water purification system or one of our other services, like leak repair, consider contacting the KC Flow Heroes for a site visit.
