Does It Help To Install Filters On Faucets Or Water Fountains?
Many people nationwide believe strongly in using filters on their water fountains or faucets, and that the water will be safer to drink as a result. This is a misconception. A filter will only help with aesthetic properties of the water’appearance, odor, or taste. The filter is not providing any health protection. Our water system does not pose a health risk on Fort Rucker, Cairns, Shell, and the stage fields because our our monitoring and sampling indicates that we are meeting all the safety and regulatory standards. If you have a government-approved filter installed in your work or home on Fort Rucker, Cairns, Shell, and the stage field to fix aesthetic water issues, the DPW Self-Help Store carries filter replacements. It is your responsibility to change them out. If you have a filter installed which was not government-approved, it is your responsibility to procure replacement filters at a retail store at your own expense.
