The Hidden Effects of Chlorine and How UK Homes Can Benefit from Carbon Filtration
When you turn on your tap in the UK, you expect safe and drinkable water. While UK tap water is among the safest in the world, it often contains chlorine. This chemical disinfectant keeps bacteria at bay, but it may also leave an unpleasant taste, smell, and potential side effects.
In this article, we’ll explore why chlorine is used, the downsides of long-term exposure, and how Aura’s carbon water filters provide a simple yet powerful solution for UK households.
Why Is Chlorine Used in UK Tap Water?
Chlorine has been used for decades to disinfect public water supplies. It effectively kills harmful microorganisms, preventing waterborne diseases. The UK’s water regulations require safe levels of chlorine, but these levels can still affect water quality.
Potential Side Effects of Chlorinated Water
•Dry skin and hair irritation
•Unpleasant taste and smell
•Possible respiratory irritation when inhaled as vapour
While safe to drink, many UK households prefer to reduce chlorine levels for better taste and overall comfort.
Why Carbon Filtration Is the Perfect Solution
Activated carbon filters, like those in Aura systems, effectively remove chlorine and its by-products. They also improve taste, odour, and even reduce other impurities, giving you fresher and safer water directly from your tap.
