November 4th, 2012 Fall Back and Change your Clock, Change your Refrigerator Water Filter

Nov. 4, 2012 - PRLog -- Over the past 6-7 months there have been numerous reports about poor drinking water quality, from water quality issues that are caused from trying to develop alternative forms of energy (fracking fluids & clean coal) to boil water alerts that continue to plague our aging water infrastructure. In the wake of Hurricane Sandy that caused destruction from Cuba all the way up the eastern seaboard of the United States, lack of power along with poor water quality are the largest issues in the aftermath of this storm. And it’s not just affecting New Jersey and New York; the problem even stretches up into Connecticut. In Hartford, Connecticut, officials have said that drinking water might have been compromised by sewage backups or pollution. They are urging people to disinfect their water supply before use, which will become a long term issue as these communities rebuild.

Although refrigerator water filters are not a complete solution for disinfecting and purifying your water, they do provide some measure of protection for the drinking water in your homes.

One of the most common ways many of us get filtered water is from an indoor refrigerator water dispenser. These dispenser systems do not just connect to your water line, but instead have complex filtration systems built right into them for ice and drinking water. And as with any water filter, the filter media will become depleted and you will need to replace it. One of the most frequently asked questions when it comes to refrigerator water filters is, “How often do I need to change my refrigerator water filter?” You need to change your refrigerator water filter cartridge every six months, as:

1. It provides better tasting and smelling water
2. It helps remove fine particles and sediment from the water
3. It prevents unabsorbed water contaminants and newly formed bacteria from being reintroduced into your drinking water
4. Prevents drop in water pressure from dispenser
5. Drinking fresh drinking water from your refrigerator can save you over $600 a year over using bottled water

And don’t worry, changing your refrigerator water filter is easy and now even more eco-friendly. We have added a new line of refrigerator water filters, http://www.freshwatersystems.com/s-735-swift-green.aspx Swift Green Filters, that’s a greener alternative to conventional fridge filters.
