Before anyone can answer that question, "What makes water pure?" he or she needs to learn how the questioner views the concept of water purity. Not everyone has the same expectations from water that is said to be "pure" water. In some situations, such as in a scientific laboratory, pure water should contain no traces of any other chemical.

Of course, most homeowners are not scientists, and most homeowners can afford to form a different answer to the question "What makes water pure?" Most homeowners feel confident about offering to those living in a home the sort of water that mimics the water found in a relatively pristine environment.

The water that one finds in the most pristine environment has a recognized mineral content. Some of those who have asked themselves "What makes water pure?" have developed ways to remove any of the dissolved minerals in water. The resulting filtration systems have produced pure water, but for just how long has that water remained pure?

When water looses its natural mineral content, it then gains the ability to interact with a range of organic and inorganic substances. Those who express surprise at the preceding statement have forgotten that water has provided man with a universal solvent. Even water vapor can dissolve particles.

The rain that falls to earth contains particles and minerals from the air. As water washes over the soil, it picks-up more chemical substances. The water that enters our streams and rivers can not be called pure water.

The human body can not suffer ill effects from the minerals in natural water. Today, however, most sources of water contain some harmful chemicals. Those chemicals come from fertilizers and from manufacturing facilities. Sometimes too, homeowners allow harmful chemicals to enter water run-off, and thus to become a dangerous part of the water system.

In addition, most municipalities look to certain chemicals as a way to remove micro-organisms from the water. Those chemicals kill the microbes, but they do not remove them from the water. When city residents drink water from the tap, they drink water that contains both dead microbes and the chemicals that killed them.

Faced with those facts, a homeowner has good reason to ask, "What makes water pure?" Some homeowners might even loose sleep while that question sounds again and again in their minds. Some of the troubled homeowners have thus chosen to act. They have decided to study the available systems for water purification.

Most of the homeowners who search for an effective way to purify a home's water supply have one primary goal-providing friends and family in the home with clean, pure, great-tasting water. An ever-widening circle of homeowners has chosen to use one particular filtration system.

Every year, one list gets longer and longer. That is the list of homeowners using carbon filters with ion exchange and micron filtration. Why are so many homeowners choosing to use that type of purification system?

Did those homeowners discover a hidden answer to this question: "What makes water pure?" No instead those homeowners have come to a realization. What do they now realize?

Those homeowners have come to realize that they do not want mineral free water. They want water that is free of harmful substances, but water that retains the chemicals from which the body can benefit. After careful study those homeowners have elected to make what they perceive to be the safest choice.
