Stop Buying Bottled Water. Get A Reverse Osmosis System
Are you tired of dragging home cases of bottled water? Have you thought about the money you are wasting and the impact of all those plastic bottles on the environment? Picture the Great Pacific Garbage Patch at roughly twice the size of Texas and how many water bottles it includes. While all these issues related to bottled water are alarming, you might not know of a reliable and cost-effective solution. But the pros at Paul Bunyan Plumbing & Drains have the answer for you, a reverse osmosis system.
What Is RO Water?
If you are unfamiliar with the process of reverse osmosis, it is a very simple method of purifying water. The device uses a semipermeable membrane and high pressure to filter the impurities from the water you are consuming. The result is water that is just as pure as the costly bottled water you buy at the store, and it tastes just as refreshing.
Are You Trading One Expense For Another?
Before you begin to contemplate a huge and costly water system, understand that an RO system can be installed under a sink to provide pure water in the kitchen or at a water tank for whole house service. The only reoccurring cost of an RO water system is a replacement filter. Many homeowners find that they need to replace the filter about every six months, but that timeframe is based on the amount of water used in your home.
Making The Initial Investment
When you think about purchasing a reverse osmosis system, the first red flag might be the initial investment you need to make. But before you give up on the opportunity to have on-demand pure water in your home, do some rough math to determine the payoff timeframe.
For a family of four, each person should consume roughly four 16-ounce bottles of water a day or 16 bottles as a family. That will add up to about two cases of water consumed every three days or 10 cases each month. At $5 per case, you are spending a minimum of $50 a month just on the water to drink. You can double or triple that if you use it for cooking and making coffee or other drinks.
Next, divide the cost of your new RO system by $50 each month to determine the payoff date. After that date, you drink pure, healthy water for free. In addition, you are not tasked with carrying cases of water home from the store. And the planet thanks you for not contributing to the mountain of plastic used for water bottles.
