Replacement Water Filters should be changed more regularly

United States of America (Press Release) April 30, 2008 -- A water filter for residential use such as a tap water filter, refrigerator water filter or even a whole house water filter are only as good as the operator who regularly changes out the filter according to the manufacturers specifications. Filters should be changed around 4 - 6 months. Fresh Water System's Free Filter Reminder Service can help you remember to change it out. You can also tell when it is time to change the filter when the water pressure flowing through it drops. This is a sign that the filter did its job in removing particals but is now full and needs to be replaced. Replacement water filters can be found through a number of sources on the Internet. A large selection is present at Fresh Water Systems ( http://www.freshwatersystems.com ).

Most people realize the serious health risks from the inhalation of dangerous contaminants or chemicals. But, many more people don't realize the dangers found in common tap water.

Contaminants in unfiltered water can cause a wide range issues. For example, lead found in water can effect the mental and physical development of children and even cause high blood pressure and hearing damage in adults. Asbestos can still be found in drinking water throughout the United States and can cause several types of cancers, including mesothelioma and colon cancer.

The solution for many is a water filter for residential use. Water filters are available for tap water faucets, refrigerator water filters and whole home water filters. To learn more visit the Fresh Water Systems blog at http://blog.freshwatersystems.com
