There is

one half of Spain

for whom it sounds like a problem from the past, but for the other half, who

buy bottled water every day

, it is still an urgent matter.

In the case of the Canaries, that percentage reaches 90% and even among the people of Madrid, who are so proud of their water, a third resort to bottled water.

In the Balearic Islands, in the Valencian Community and in the Region of Murcia, they are also aware of the problem.

Result:

water

filtration and purification systems

have become an everyday tool in

millions of homes

, first of all, to save on water.

All life begins with water.

And for humans it is the first guarantee of health.

According to the United States Academy of Sciences,

we should consume between 2.7 and 3.7 liters of water a day

.

More of them than they and not all ingested in liquid, since a good part, around 20%, comes from food.

But the one we take from the tap has become a concern.

Due to the serious presence of

microplastics

in the waters of rivers and seas or due to something more common: waters from wells with a high content of

lime

, waters treated with excess

chlorine

, regions where the waters have an excess of

metals or pesticides

...

Pure water is ideal for anyone, but especially for

children

,

pregnant women

and all those who suffer from gastrointestinal problems.

Of course, once filtered, it lacks the chemistry that protects the water from bacteria, so it is recommended to

consume it within 48 hours

.

WHAT KIND OF FILTERS IS MOST SUITABLE?

Although the need, in so many cases, is unquestionable, it is more conflicting

which filter to use

.

First of all, a

system with

permanent

filters

is recommended

, to avoid the hassle of having to change cartridges, as was common a few years ago.

Secondly, we must check

the compatibility of the

chosen

system

with the taps we have.

These two priority issues are almost overcome today.

Most systems are long-lasting cartridges and are universal.

Spain entered the 21st century with a consumption of 1,453 million liters of bottled water per year.

According to Statista data, two decades later it has doubled, to become the

third country in the European Union

, after Italy and Germany, that consumes the most bottled water, according to data from the sector's European employers' association.

Data that reveals the importance that water quality continues to have and why a purification and filtration system is useful.

The former remove microscopic natural or added components through a

neutralizing element present in the filter

, normally activated carbon, ceramic balls or ultraviolet light;

the latter

trap sediment

and solid impurities.

Today's most advanced systems, in fact, use both technologies: purification and filtration.

The market offers from common systems such as

filter jugs

or complementary accessories for taps to

osmosis

systems

, which are placed under the sink and replicate the process of desalination plants that makes sea water drinkable.

They are, therefore,

very effective in the treatment of common water

, although also less economical in the short term.

If you do not want to make a high investment, the bet would be for systems that include an active component within the filter to hunt down waste.

By different ways, ways of drinking in peace.

And on

Amazon

you can find the system that suits you best:

AEG OSMOSIS TEAM
