Taking a water break from your garden hose sounds like an excellent idea until you consider the health hazards. If the water comes from the tap or well, chances are, it’s rich in contaminants and heavy metals.

But the good news is you can install a revolutionary garden hose filter to eliminate pathogens, chlorine, lead, and other harmful contaminants. That’s where the AquaOx DF7 comes into the picture!

Does a Garden Hose Filter Reduce Chlorine?

Although communities deliberately add chlorine to fight pathogens and contaminants, the chemical can also harm your plants and create toxic byproducts by reacting with organic matter.

But garden hoses with carbon block filters have the ability to reduce chlorine and chloramine alongside heavy metals and pesticides. Let’s discuss in-depth how your garden hose filter help reduce chlorine:

Why Is Chlorine Bad for Your Garden Hose?

Elevated chlorine levels can damage car paints, causes respiratory diseases, and harm plant tissues. But there’s more:

• Damages Car’s Coating- Washing your car using a garden hose with tap water can damage its clear coating and promote corrosion. Without its coating, your car’s paint becomes susceptible to UV rays, leading to fading.

• Affects the Growth of Plants- Failing to protect your plants from chlorine can cause reactions between heavy metals and chlorine in the irrigation system. Additionally, chlorine can react with fertilizers in your lawns, which encourages the growth of toxic compounds.

• Impacts Your Health- Excessive chlorine intake can also hurt your respiratory system, especially since its gaseous form can irritate and corrode the skin, eyes, and lungs.

How Does a Garden Hose Filter Purify Water?

Chlorine is notorious for its disinfecting properties and is added to municipal water to kill pathogens, making it safe for consumption. But, in excessive amounts, chlorine can be a toxic and corrosive substance that promotes rust, damages car paint, and harms plants.

Installing a garden hose filter can eliminate contaminants, bacteria, and chemicals from our home’s tap water, including chlorine. Particularly, hoses with granular activated carbon installed within can combat pathogens, herbicides, heavy metals like lead, and many other chemicals.

The carbon cartridge contains granulated carbon boasting a porous structure. Thus, the carbon filter effectively adsorbs the chlorine alongside VOCs, hard water minerals, pesticides, and chloramine. What’s more, the chlorine adorbs onto the granulated carbon filter without slowing the flow rate or pressure of the water.

Using a Garden Hose Water Filter For Your Greenhouse or Garden

When we water a plant, it absorbs the water through its roots, then through its vascular system, it sends the water into its stems, leaves, buds, and fruit. When you supply the plant with contaminated water, the toxins will disperse throughout the plant.

While this is not a concern for purely ornamental plants, fruit and vegetables producing ones can become a host of diseases and illnesses. Sometimes, contaminated water can cause discoloration, funky odors, stunted growth, or death in plants. Thus, water quality is crucial to your plant’s growth and edibility.

For instance, high soluble salts- which harden water- can damage plants’ roots, resulting in low nutrient uptake. On the other hand, highly alkaline water can affect the soil pH and can even create a hazardous environment.

How Can a Garden Hose Filter Help Beautify Your Garden?

If you’re like most people using tap water to water the garden, it’s likely your plants are soaking up heavy metals, herbicides, and soluble salts that stunt their growth. Installing a garden hose filter, similar to a kitchen water filter, can help eliminate chemicals, pollutants, and solid particles from tap water.

In addition, filtering your garden hose offers you the peace of mind that your plants can access clean water to grow healthy and beautiful. Not only do these high-quality filters protect your plan from toxic heavy metals and excess minerals, but they also provide essential nutrients.

Here are a few benefits of filtering your garden house:

• Increases Growth and Yield- A garden hose water filter can effectively remove contaminant buildup in the plant’s root system and provide it with the minerals necessary for larger sizes and yield.

• Promotes a Stable pH- Using a filter ensures your plants receive balanced water, which ensures their healthy growth.

Using a Garden Hose Filter for RV Drinking Water

When traveling with an RV, you also introduce yourself to different flavors and qualities of water. In some campgrounds, you’ll find city water, whereas others attach their systems to well water comprising rusty, muddy, or murky water.

Therefore, it’s important to ensure that you have clean drinking water for cooking, drinking, and showering. That’s why a high-quality water filter is a must for full-time and part-time RVers. Let’s discuss how an RV water filter is essential:

Why Do RVers Need a Garden Hose Filter?

Garden hose filters are RVs’ most widely used filtration systems due to their effectiveness and versatility. Most garden hose filters are compact and can easily be mounted anywhere. Additionally, they process all the water entering your RV, ensuring its clean and safe for consumption.

The granulated carbon cartridge will block pathogens and microbes from entering your water, ensuring no toxins in your RV system. Besides this, the porous carbon filter adsorbs heavy metals and other contaminants, which successfully removes bad taste, smell, and color.

In addition, modified carbon blocks manufactured from fibers and a slurry of carbon promote superior filtration. These granular carbon filters have a very small micron rating which helps remove microbes and soluble salts without compromising the water flow.

The Bottom Line

Clean, safe, and healthy water are essential for your garden as it is for your body. To ensure your plants grow healthily and beautifully, you must install a high-quality water filter in your garden hose. At the same time, carrying a garden hose filter while traveling ensures you always have access to high-quality drinking water.

Replacing your filters with a Quantum Disinfection helps ensure no microorganism reaches your drinking water. The presence of silver and TiO2 stunts germicidal activity, which ensures no microorganism stays alive after coming in contact with the QD media. Furthermore, its granular activated carbon shell helps ereduce cholor, organic components, and funky smells.
