(Sure, you could include \u201ctemperature\u201d as a sixth, but temperature is more personal preference.) You look at the water, smell it as you lift the glass to your mouth, and finally taste it. Is the water too acidic (low pH), such as pure reverse osmosis (RO) water with zero minerals? Does the water have a strong chlorine smell and taste? Is it safe to drink?<\/p>\n<p>There are many factors contributing to what may be causing your drinking water to seem off. Some may identify a larger problem with your home\u2019s water that should be addressed with one of our whole house filtration systems, such as <a href=\"\/residential\/product\/ironshield\">IronShield<\/a>\u00a0(well water) or <a href=\"\/residential\/product\/toxinshield\">ToxinShield<\/a>\u00a0(city water).
