I kēia ao, ʻaʻole wale ka wai maʻemaʻe he mea hoʻohiwahiwa—he mea pono ia. Inā ʻoe e hoʻopiha ana i kāu kīʻaha ma hope o kahi lā lōʻihi a i ʻole e kuke ana i kahi meaʻai no kāu poʻe aloha, he mea nui ka maikaʻi o ka wai āu e hoʻohana ai. ʻO ia kahi e komo mai ai nā kānana wai, e hoʻololi ana i kāu wai paipa i ka wai maʻemaʻe a hōʻoluʻolu hoʻi. Akā he aha ka mea e ʻoi aku ai ka kānana wai ma mua o kahi hāmeʻa home? E luʻu kākou!

ʻO ka mea huna i ka wai maʻemaʻe: ke kilokilo kānana

E noʻonoʻo i kāu kānana wai e like me ke kupua. Lawe ia i ka wai āu i loaʻa mua, i piha i nā mea haumia, a hoʻolilo iā ia i mea kilokilo: wai maʻemaʻe a palekana. Hana ia i kāna mau hana mana ma o kahi moʻo o nā pae e wehe ai i nā kemika ʻino, nā bacteria, a me nā ʻala ʻino, e waiho ana iā ʻoe me ka wai ʻaʻole wale ka palekana akā ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka ʻono.

No ke aha ʻoe e mālama ai?

ʻAʻole wale ka kānana wai e pili ana i ka ʻono. Pili ia i ke olakino, ke kaiapuni, a me ke kūpaʻa. Ma ka kānana ʻana i nā mea haumia, ke hōʻemi nei ʻoe i kou ʻike ʻana i nā mea ʻino e like me ka chlorine, ke kēpau, a me nā mea haumia ʻē aʻe. Eia kekahi, ke hana nei ʻoe i kahi koho i ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi no ke kaiapuni—ma ka hōʻemi ʻana i nā ʻōpala palaki mai ka wai ʻōmole a me ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka pono no ka ʻōpala palaki.

Pehea e Hana ai: Mai ka Piula a i ka ʻOno

Hoʻohana nā kānana wai i nā ʻenehana like ʻole e hoʻomaikaʻi i ka maikaʻi o kāu wai. ʻO ke kalapona i hoʻāla ʻia, no ka laʻana, he mea maikaʻi loa ia i ka omo ʻana i ka chlorine a me nā ʻala, ʻoiai ʻo ka osmosis hoʻohuli e hele i kahi ʻanuʻu hou aʻe e wehe i nā ʻāpana microscopic. Loaʻa i kēlā me kēia ʻano kānana kona mau ikaika ponoʻī, akā i ka hui pū ʻana, hana lākou e hana i kahi ʻike wai ʻoi aku ka leʻaleʻa a olakino.

Ka ʻŌlelo Hoʻohiki no ka Wai Maʻemaʻe

Ma ka puʻuwai o kekahi ʻōnaehana kānana maikaʻi ka ʻōlelo hoʻohiki o ka maʻemaʻe. Inā ʻoe e hoʻopukapuka kālā ana i kahi kumu hoʻohālike countertop a i ʻole kahi hopena ma lalo o ka poho holoi, hiki i kahi kānana wai maikaʻi ke hoʻokiʻekiʻe i kou ola o kēlā me kēia lā. ʻAʻole ia e pili ana i ka wai maʻemaʻe wale nō—e pili ana i ka ʻike ʻana he maʻemaʻe ka wai āu e inu ai, kuke ai, a hoʻohana ai i loko o kou home e like me ka manaʻo o ke kūlohelohe.

No laila, i ka manawa aʻe e hoʻā ai ʻoe i kāu piula wai, e noʻonoʻo e pili ana i ka hana mana e hana nei i loko o kāu kānana, e hoʻolilo ana i kēlā aniani wai i mea maʻemaʻe loa a hou loa. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, ʻo ka wai ke ola, a pono e maʻemaʻe mau ke ola.

E noho hydrated, e noho olakino, a e hana kou wai i ka hana kilokilo!
