No ke aha e koho ai i kahi pahu kānana wai? ʻO ka manaʻo waiwai hikiʻole ke lanakila

[Ka Manaʻo Huli: Pilikia & Hoʻoponopono]

ʻO nā ipu kānana wai e hoʻomalu i ka mākeke no ke kumu maikaʻi. ʻO lākou ka hopena kūpono inā ʻoe:

• E hoʻolimalima i kou home a ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻokomo i nā mea paʻa paʻa
• Loaʻa i kahi ākea liʻiliʻi a pono i kahi hopena paʻa
• Makemake ʻoe i kahi wahi komo kūpono i ka wai kānana ($20-$50 ma mua)
• Pono e lawe ʻia no nā keʻena, nā dorm, a i ʻole nā ​​​​hale liʻiliʻi

ʻOiai ko lākou maʻalahi, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā ipu hao hou ma mua o ka wā ma mua, me kekahi mau hiʻohiʻona e hoʻokūkū nei i nā ʻōnaehana kumu kūʻai no nā pilikia wai maʻamau.

Pehea e hana maoli ai nā kīʻaha kānana wai: ua maʻalahi ka ʻepekema

[Manaʻo Huli: ʻIkepili / Pehea e hana ai]

Hoʻohana ka hapa nui o nā ipu i kahi kaʻina kānana ʻelua-pae:

1. Hoʻomaʻamaʻa Mechanical: Hoʻopaʻa ka pale i ulana ʻole ʻia i ka ʻōpala, sediment, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe e like me ka liʻiliʻi e like me ka 1-5 microns.
2. Hoʻopili ʻia ʻo Carbon Filtration: ʻO ke kumu o ka ʻōnaehana. ʻO ke kalapona ʻāpana a paʻa paha:
   • Hoʻopili i nā mea haumia e like me ka chlorine, VOC, a me nā pesticides ma luna o kona ʻāpana nui.
   • Hoʻemi i nā metala kaumaha e like me ke kēpau, mercury, a me ke keleawe ma o ka hoʻemi catalytic.

Hiki i nā ipu kiʻekiʻe ke hoʻokomo i ka resin hoʻololi ion e hōʻemi i ka paʻakikī (kaulike) a i ʻole nā ​​​​mea hoʻolaha kūikawā ʻē aʻe.

Ma muli o ka hana kānana, ke kumukūʻai-per-gallon, ka hiki, a me ka wikiwiki.

**Ma muli o ke kānana ʻana i 1 galani i kēlā me kēia lā a me ka avg. ola kānana. Brita (~$20/6mo), ZeroWater (~$25/1-2mo), PUR (~$20/3mo).*

1. E ʻike i kou pilikia wai: ʻo ia ka ʻono (chlorine), ka paʻakikī (ka unahi), a i ʻole kahi mea haumia (lead)? E nānā i kāu Hōʻike Kūlana Wai (CCR).
2. E nānā i nā palapala hōʻoia NSF: Mai hilinaʻi wale i nā koi kūʻai. E nānā i nā helu palapala hōʻoia NSF/ANSI ma ka pahu (e laʻa, NSF 53 no ka hōʻemi kepau).
3. E noʻonoʻo i ka Capacity & Speed: E makemake ana kahi ʻohana nui i kahi kīʻaha kiʻekiʻe me ka wikiwiki hoʻopiha piha. Hiki i ke kanaka hoʻokahi ke hana mua i ka hoʻolālā paʻa.
4. E helu i ke kumu kūʻai no ka wā lōʻihi: ʻoi aku ka nui o ke kumukūʻai o ka ipu hao me nā kānana ola pōkole. E hana i ka makemakika ma ke kumu kūʻai no ke galani.
5. E ʻimi i nā hiʻohiʻona ʻoluʻolu: ʻO nā hōʻailona kānana uila, nā lima ergonomic, a me nā poʻi maʻalahi e hoʻopiha i ka ʻike i kēlā me kēia lā.
