On the 30th, the water quality at Fanling Queen's Hill Estate began to show abnormalities, with drinking water mixed with large amounts of black contaminants. Residents are worried about water contamination and are hesitant to drink it. Some netizens questioned why the Water Supplies Department did not issue a notification despite being aware of the issue earlier that morning, showing indifference to the residents' drinking water safety.

Multiple Facebook pages related to Queen's Hill Estate are discussing the contamination issue. One netizen commented, "This is really exaggerated. I experienced something similar when I moved in, but it wasn’t this serious." Another asked, "What happened to the water tank? Normally, all the filters are just brown; today, after using the water for a day, I found more and more black spots. I changed to a brand new one, and within five minutes, it was completely black. Does anyone know what happened?"

Pictures shared by residents show that the parts of the filters, whether the water core or the spout, are covered with numerous black spots, some resembling charcoal dust. Some images are captioned, "I installed a brand new one and it only ran for five minutes." The filter shown in the picture is completely black, raising hygiene concerns if the water is used directly without filtration. One resident stated, "I feel like I’m drinking pure Dongjiang water and brewing pure Dongjiang tea."

Recently, a customer consulted us about choosing a filter cartridge for their home with a newborn baby. They wanted something aesthetically pleasing and with specific water quality requirements, so we recommended the Everpure H-1200 model.

Why Recommend Everpure H-1200?

The Everpure H-1200 is a high-performance filter cartridge. It features our patented Everpure Precoat® multi-layer semi-permeable membrane, which has a large filtration area and pore size of less than 0.5 microns (one-twentieth of a centimeter). This effectively removes contaminants larger than 0.5 microns, such as bacteria and microplastics.

Additionally, it includes a Micro-Pure® patented formula with high-quality activated carbon, which has strong adsorption capabilities. It filters out not only well-known contaminants like chlorine, carcinogenic trihalomethanes, and lead, but also emerging contaminants like per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).

What Are PFAS and Why Are They Concerning?

PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) are a type of synthetic chemical widely used in various products, such as waterproof materials, food packaging, cleaners, and firefighting foams. PFAS do not decompose in the human body and cannot be expelled, meaning they can remain permanently in the body. In other words, even if the concentration in water is very low, it can accumulate over time.

Research shows that PFAS may be linked to various health issues, including immune system impairment, endocrine disruption, and increased risk of certain cancers.

So, if you have high water quality requirements, the Everpure H-1200 model is perfect for you!

The customer chose a zinc plate bottom installation for a concealed look, which doesn’t take up space on the kitchen countertop and maintains a minimalist kitchen design.

Listening to my mom and boyfriend, the most common advice is "Drink more water!" They talk as if drinking water can cure all ailments. But it turns out that it's not just about drinking a lot! Choosing the right time to drink water is the real "free health tip"! Don’t believe it? Let’s see why!

Daily 6 "Golden Water" Timetable (Easy to Remember!):

7:00 AM - "Lifesaving Water"

After 8 hours of sleep, drink a cup of warm water on an empty stomach to instantly help your blood circulation.

12:30 PM - "Weight Loss Water"

Drink a cup of water 30 minutes before meals to enhance feelings of fullness, reducing your meal size by half.

2:00 PM - "Awakening Water"

After lunch, when blood sugar rises and you feel sleepy, drink half a cup of water. It’s more invigorating than coffee and can also neutralize stomach acid!

3:15 PM - "Happy Water"

At 3:15 PM, your body enters a "dehydration phase." Enjoy your afternoon tea and drink a cup of tea to replenish fluids.

6:30 PM - "Waste Elimination Water"

After a hot summer day and being stuck in traffic, your body is dehydrated. When you get home, drink a cup of water to "refresh" your digestive system.

11:00 PM - "Sleep Water"

Drink half a cup of water 30 minutes before bed. This way, you won’t wake up thirsty at midnight. Just remember not to drink too much, so you won’t have to run to the bathroom!

Tip: If you want to know how much water you should drink daily, use your weight (kg) × 40 ml. This will give you the daily amount in ml that you need to drink!

Actually, it’s because too much rust and sediment have been absorbed!

Especially in Hong Kong, where the water supply pipes in older buildings and complexes are often outdated (especially iron pipes), the water may contain rust. Once rust is absorbed, it can cause discoloration.

The aging plumbing in Hong Kong's industrial buildings is indeed a tricky issue. Many of these buildings were constructed in the 1970s and 80s, and the standards and materials from that era no longer meet today's requirements. Coupled with Hong Kong's high humidity and salt content, this accelerates the corrosion of metal pipes. However, since the public plumbing is beyond our control, what can be done to solve this problem?

The answer is to choose the right filter cartridge! Everpure cartridges are NSF42 & 53 certified, effectively blocking rust and sediment, as well as harmful contaminants like E. coli, cysts, microorganisms, Giardia, Cryptosporidium, suspended solids, asbestos fibers, and microplastics. They also effectively adsorb unpleasant colors, odors, chlorine, lead, mercury, and other heavy metals, ensuring not only safety but also better tasting water. Many chain restaurants, coffee shops, schools, and social service organizations use Everpure filters, so you can be confident in their performance!

Tip: If the pipes in your home or office are severely aged, consider installing an Everpure filter and adding a pre-filter. This combination can block larger rust and sediment particles, allowing the filter to focus on smaller contaminants and extending its lifespan!

First, why is chlorine added to water? Its "benefits":

The primary purpose of adding chlorine at water treatment plants is to disinfect and kill bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in the water. This ensures that the water from your tap is safe to drink.

So what are its "downsides"?

Chlorine can produce disinfection byproducts like trihalomethanes (THMs). The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies chloroform (a type of THM) as a Group 2B carcinogen, meaning it possibly poses a cancer risk to humans. Some epidemiological studies have suggested that long-term exposure to high concentrations of THMs may be associated with an increased risk of bladder and colorectal cancers and may also burden the liver and kidneys.

For individuals with sensitive skin, eczema patients, or infants, chlorine can cause dryness, itching, and redness of the skin. It can also irritate the eyes, making swimming or showering uncomfortable. Additionally, it can irritate the respiratory tract, which is particularly unfriendly for asthma sufferers.

Excess chlorine can lead to the familiar "swimming pool" or "disinfectant" smell, which significantly affects the taste of drinking water and appetite. Using chlorinated water to brew coffee, tea, or cook soups can mask the original flavors of food, resulting in an unpleasant taste.

For households concerned about chlorine residuals, have higher water quality requirements, or have members with sensitive skin, it may be wise to consider installing appropriate water purification equipment.
