The amount of chlorine that reaches your home will vary. Excessive chlorine in drinking water can lead to a pungent smell and potential health hazards.
Rust and Dust
Water passes through several stages before it reaches your tap.
Starting from the treatment plant, network, storage tanks, valves, and piping until it reaches your faucet, which increases the potential of having excess turbidity or suspended solids.
Hard Water
