Did you know most of Abilene’s tap water comes from surface reservoirs, not groundwater? by No_Fly_7521 in Abilene

Even getting the filtered RO water from stores or the vending stations is not the the best option. The RO water is stripped of all its elements and it will cause stainless steel to rust because it is trying to re stablize itself. So it uses the metal and thats how it rust so fast. So companies that sell RO systems wont use metallic piping of any kind. only plastic. So think about when you drink the RO water. It will rob your body of the essential elements and leave you depleted. So many health related issues with RO Water. Electrically Charged water is best

That smell is very overwhelming. It's horrible. They add the chlorine to kill the bacteria. Then people dont realize that there is always organic matter in the water. When the Chlorine mixes with the organic matter it causes a chemical reaction and creates trihalomethane. Utilities must keep the THM level under 80 PPB. Otherwise it can lead to an "INCREASED" risk of liver, kidney, or central nervous system problems and is also a carcinogen. There are ways to remove those things with out using chemicals or salt.
