Think your tap water is safe? It might not be as clean as you assume. Even water that looks clear can carry chemicals, microplastics, and scale-forming minerals that threaten your family’s health and home. If you notice any of these signs, it could be time to invest in a whole house water filtration system.

Most U.S. cities disinfect water with chlorine or chloramine, as required by the EPA's Safe Drinking Water Act. Chloramine is formed by combining chlorine and ammonia and is widely used in large urban systems like Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Washington D.C., and San Francisco.

While chloramine is more stable than chlorine and leaves less noticeable taste or odor, it’s still a chemical you and your family drink and bathe in every day.

Even if your water tastes fine, exposure to these residual chemicals is a real concern for long-term health.

A whole house water filtration system helps remove chlorine, chloramines, and other contaminants, giving you cleaner, safer water at every tap.

If you see white spots on dishes, orange stains in sinks, or chalky buildup around faucets, you're witnessing more than cosmetic issues. Although these minerals are healthy, they can cause damage to your fixtures and your appliances.  

Without a home water filtration system:

 - Minerals can coat pipes, reducing efficiency and appliance lifespan.

 - Microplastics can enter your body through drinking and bathing.

 - Healthy minerals can be lost or masked by chemical additives.

Filtering your entire home protects against these hidden threats and ensures you’re providing the best water possible for your family.

If your skin feels dry and your hair turns brittle after showers, hard water is not the problem.  It is actually your water’s chemical content. Chlorine strips natural oils from your skin and hair, leading to irritation and discomfort.

Whole house filtration reduces harsh chemicals across all faucets, helping maintain your skin’s moisture balance and leaving hair softer and healthier.

If you find yourself hauling cases of bottled water because you don’t trust what comes from your taps, it’s a clear sign your current system isn’t meeting your needs.

With a whole house water filtration system, you can eliminate the need for bottled water altogether, saving money and dramatically reducing plastic waste. You get clean, great-tasting water from every tap, not just your kitchen sink.

If you recognize one or more of these signs, it’s time to take action. LifeSource offers a maintenance-free whole house water filtration system that addresses chemical contaminants, protects your plumbing, and preserves the healthy minerals your body needs, all without the need for salt, wasteful water cycles, or constant maintenance.
