Uma kuziwa endleleni yokuphila enempilo (noma ukuphila nje), amanzi okuphuza kubaluleke kakhulu. Yize izakhamizi eziningi zase-US zikwazi ukuthola ompompi, inani lezimpawu ezitholakala emanzini athile ompompi lingenza kucishe kungaphuzwa. Ngenhlanhla, sinezihlungi zamanzi namasistimu okuhlunga.
Nakuba izihlungi zamanzi zithengiswa ngaphansi kwezinhlobo ezahlukene, azifani zonke. Ukukulethela amanzi acwebile kanye nemikhiqizo esebenza ngempela, I-Post ixoxisane nochwepheshe wokwelapha amanzi, “Uchwepheshe Ohamba Phambili Wamanzi” uBrian Campbell, umsunguli we-WaterFilterGuru.com.
Simbuze yonke imininingwane yokukhetha imbiza yokuhlunga amanzi engcono kakhulu, indlela yokuhlola ikhwalithi yakho yamanzi, izinzuzo zezempilo zamanzi ahlungiwe, nokunye okwengeziwe ngaphambi kokuhlolisisa ukukhetha kwakhe okuphezulu okuyisihlanu kwezitsha ezingcono kakhulu zokuhlunga amanzi.
Abathengi kufanele bacabangele lokhu okulandelayo lapho bekhetha isihlungi samanzi sendlu yabo, uCampbell uthe: ukuhlolwa kanye nesitifiketi, impilo yokuhlunga (umthamo) kanye nezindleko zokushintshwa, izinga lokuhlunga, umthamo wamanzi ahlungiwe, ipulasitiki engena-BPA, newaranti.
"Isihlungi samanzi esihle siyakwazi ukususa ukungcola okukhona emthonjeni wamanzi ahlungiwe," kusho uCampbell etshela iPost. "Akuwona wonke amanzi aqukethe ukungcola okufanayo, futhi akubona bonke ubuchwepheshe bokuhlunga amanzi obususa ukungcola okufanayo."
“Kuhlale kuwumqondo omuhle ukuhlola izinga lamanzi akho kuqala ukuze uthole umqondo ongcono walokho obhekene nakho. Ukusuka lapho, sebenzisa idatha yemiphumela yokuhlola ukuhlonza izihlungi zamanzi ezizonciphisa ukungcola okukhona.”
Kuye ngokuthi uzimisele ukusebenzisa malini, kunezindlela ezimbalwa zokuhlola amanzi akho ekhaya ukuze ubone ukuthi yikuphi ukungcola obhekene nakho.
“Bonke abahlinzeki ngamanzi komasipala baphoqeleka ngokomthetho ukuthi bashicilele umbiko wonyaka mayelana nezinga lamanzi abawaphakela amakhasimende abo. Yize lesi kuyisiqalo esihle, imibiko ikhawulelwe ngoba ihlinzeka ngolwazi kuphela ngesikhathi sokusampula. ethathwe embonini yokucubungula, kusho uCampbell.
“Ngeke bakhombise ukuthi amanzi aphinde angcoliswa yini uma eya kwakho. Izibonelo ezidume kabi ukungcoliswa komthofu okuvela engqalasizinda egugile noma amapayipi,” kuchaza uCampbell. “Uma amanzi akho ephuma emthonjeni ozimele, awukwazi ukusebenzisa i-CCR. Ungasebenzisa leli thuluzi le-EPA ukuthola i-CCR yangakini.”
“Izinsiza zokuhlola zenzele wena noma imicu yokuhlola, etholakala kabanzi ku-inthanethi nasesitolo sendawo yangakini yezingxenyekazi zekhompiyutha noma isitolo esikhulu samabhokisi, izobonisa ukuba khona kweqembu elikhethiwe (imvamisa engu-10-20) lokungcola okuvame kakhulu emanzini edolobha,” Kusho uCampbell. Okubi ukuthi la mathuluzi awaphelele futhi awacacisi. Abakuniki isithombe esiphelele sakho konke ukungcola okungenzeka. Abakutsheli ukuthi ukungcola kungakanani ngempela.”
“Ukuhlolwa kwelebhu yiyona ndlela kuphela yokuthola isithombe esiphelele sekhwalithi yamanzi. Uthola umbiko wokuthi yiziphi izinto ezingcolisayo ezikhona nokuthi zingakanani,” kusho uCampbell etshela iPost. "Lokhu ukuphela kokuhlolwa okunganikeza idatha enembile edingekayo ukuze kutholwe ukuthi kuyadingeka yini ukwelashwa okufanele - uma kutholakala."
UCampbell uncoma i-Simple Lab's Tap Score, eyibiza ngokuthi “umkhiqizo wokuhlolwa ngelebhu ongcono kakhulu otholakalayo.”
“Isitifiketi esizimele esivela ku-NSF International noma i-Water Quality Association (WQA) yinkomba engcono kakhulu yokuthi isisefo sihlangabezana nezidingo zomkhiqizi,” usho kanje.
"I-output yesihlungi inani lamanzi angadlula kulo ngaphambi kokuba ligcwale ukungcola futhi lidinga ukushintshwa," kusho uCampbell. Njengoba kushiwo ngaphambili, "Kubalulekile ukuqonda ukuthi yini ozoyikhipha emanzini ukuze unqume ukuthi udinga kangakanani ukushintsha isihlungi."
"Emanzini anezinga eliphezulu lokungcola, isisefo sifinyelela umthamo waso ngokushesha kunamanzi angangcolisiwe kancane," kusho uCampbell.
“Ngokujwayelekile, izihlungi zamanzi e-canister zibamba amalitha angama-40-100 futhi zihlala izinyanga ezi-2 kuye kwezi-4. Lokhu kuzokusiza ukuthi unqume izindleko zokushintsha izihlungi zonyaka ezihlobene nokugcina isistimu yakho.”
"I-canister yokuhlunga incike kumandla adonsela phansi ukuze idonse amanzi endaweni yokugcina amanzi kanye nesihlungi," kuchaza uCampbell. "Ungalindela ukuthi yonke inqubo yokuhlunga ithathe [kuze kube] imizuzu engu-20, kuye ngeminyaka yesici sokuhlunga kanye nomthwalo ongcolile."
“Izimbiza zokuhlunga ziza ngobukhulu obuhlukahlukene, kodwa ngokuvamile ungacabanga ukuthi zizohlinzeka ngamanzi ahlungiwe anele umuntu oyedwa,” kusho uCampbell. "Ungathola futhi abahlinzeki bamandla amakhulu abasebenzisa ubuchwepheshe obufanayo bokuhlunga njengamajeke abo amancane."
“Mhlawumbe akusho lutho, kodwa kubalulekile ukuqinisekisa ukuthi imbiza ayiwakhiqizi amakhemikhali emanzini ahlungiwe! Imishini eminingi yesimanje ayina-BPA, kodwa kufanelekile ukuyihlola ukuze iphephe,” kuphawula uCampbell.
Iwaranti yomkhiqizi iyinkomba enamandla yokuwuthemba kwabo umkhiqizo wabo, kusho uCampbell. Bheka lezo ezinikeza okungenani iwaranti yezinyanga eziyisithupha - izihlungi ze-pitcher ezihamba phambili zinikeza iwaranti yempilo yonke ezongena esikhundleni sayo yonke iyunithi uma iphuka! ”
“Amabhodlela ahlanzekile ahlungiwe ahlolelwe i-NSF amazinga 42, 53, 244, 401 kanye no-473 ukuze kukhishwe amagciwane afika ku-365,” kusho uCampbell. "Lokhu kuhlanganisa ukungcola okunenkani njenge-fluoride, i-lead, i-arsenic, amagciwane, njll. Inempilo enhle yokuhlunga engamalitha ayi-100 (kuye ngokuthi umthombo wamanzi ahlungwayo)."
Futhi, le jeke iza newaranti yempilo yonke, ngakho-ke uma ike yephuka, inkampani izoyishintsha mahhala!
"Lesi sikhiqizo sinamanzi ahlungiwe kakhulu kunojeke futhi siyakwazi ukukhipha i-fluoride kanye nokunye ukungcola okungu-199 okuvame ukutholakala emanzini ompompi," kusho uCampbell, othanda kakhulu le nketho ngoba ilingana kahle neziqandisi eziningi.
“I-polyurethane pitcher igunyazwe ngokusemthethweni i-NSF kumazinga e-NSF 42, 53, kanye ne-401. Nakuba isihlungi singahlali isikhathi eside njengabanye (amalitha angu-40 kuphela), le mbiza iyindlela enhle yesabelomali yokukhipha umthofu namanye amanzi edolobha angu-19. ukungcola,” kusho uCampbell.
UCampbell uncoma imbiza ye-Propur kulabo abangafuni ukushintsha amakhatriji njalo.
“Ngomthamo omkhulu wokuhlunga ongu-225 amalitha, akudingeki ukhathazeke ngokuthi udinga ukushintsha kangaki isihlungi,” usho kanje. "Imbiza ye-ProOne iyasebenza ekwehliseni ukungcola [futhi] iyakwazi ukususa izinhlobo ezingaphezu kuka-200 zokungcola."
"I-pH Restore Pitcher izosusa ukungcola kobuhle, ithuthukise ukunambitheka kanye nephunga lamanzi, kuyilapho iphakamisa izinga le-pH ngo-2.0," kusho uCampbell. “Amanzi ane-alkaline [azo]nambitha kangcono futhi angase anikeze izinzuzo ezengeziwe zezempilo.”
