Harmful substances that the refrigerator water filter can remove2021-06-11
We all know that the water in the refrigerator passes through miles of underground pipes before it reaches the home or business. In the process, it may collect lead from old pipes, agricultural runoff and other harmful compounds.
Most refrigerator water filters are designed to remove three main contaminants: lead, chlorine, and volatile organic compounds (VOC). Certain products can also remove cysts and chloramines.
Lead
Because lead is toxic, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has set the maximum pollutant content of lead in drinking water to zero. Ingestion of lead can cause reproductive problems, premature birth, and damage to the brain, hearing, heart, and kidneys.
Chlorine
Chlorine disinfects drinking water and can actually eliminate water-borne diseases such as typhoid fever and dysentery. But this will also spoil the taste of the water. The carbon refrigerator filter is very good, so that the chlorine-treated drinking water has a fresh taste.
Chloramine is a mixture of chlorine and ammonia used by municipalities to reduce the formation of harmful disinfectants such as trihalomethanes. There are few studies on the health effects of chloramines, and the results are unclear. A refrigerator filter with catalytic carbon removes chlorine and chloramines by separating chlorine from ammonia and converting the chlorine to chlorine.
Volatile Organic Compound
Volatile organic compounds (VOC) are harmful chemicals, such as herbicides, insecticides, or pesticides. VOC exposure mainly comes from air pollution, paint and preservatives, but they can enter drinking water through agricultural runoff or industrial waste. Many volatile organic compounds can cause cancer or cause liver, kidney and reproductive problems.
Purerdrop refrigerator water filter can effectively remove lead, chlorine and volatile organic compounds to protect the health of you and your family. Today, I will introduce a refrigerator water filter that is environmentally friendly and affordable.
This refrigerator water filter is NSF certified and meets Standard 42, reducing 97% of harmful pollutants in the water. The PD004 refrigerator water filter is guaranteed to be compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air and Amana refrigerators.
