The directions on the website were sparse. The part numbers in the manual didn’t match the part numbers on the website. All I need to filter is arsenic, my tap water is from aquifers and is pretty good otherwise, no sediment, rust, or other chemicals. So, I just bought three arsenic filters.
Don’t really need the arsenic filters, the water is just under the standard 10 pbb, but I figured why not? When the filter was new, I paid for a water test of before and after the filter. Before was 8.(something) and after was 0.5ish. So, it made a big difference.
No amount of arsenic is safe, like no amount of alcohol. Same idea, but with water. I’m sure arsenic, even at 8, won’t be the thing that kills me, but again, why not filter it since I can?
Stay away from rice then!
It’s very sad to me, because I love rice!
Not all rice has higher levels of arsenic. Some places do though. It’s hard to sort them out. And often the “high” arsenic rice is still in the safe levels. And only becomes an issue if you eat large amounts of it every day for all your life.
I personally prefer Thai Jasmine rice myself. Which I love because of the aroma, but is considered to be very low exposure to arsenic.
