Sesilokhu senza ucwaningo oluzimele kanye nokuhlolwa komkhiqizo iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-120. Singase sithole amakhomishini uma uthenga ngezixhumanisi zethu. Funda kabanzi ngenqubo yethu yokuqinisekisa.
Amanzi amnandi angakusiza uhlangabezane nezidingo zakho. :0.25rem;color:#125C68;-webkit-transition:all 0.3 seconds slow in and out;transition:every 0.3 seconds slow in and out;}.css-1me6ynq:hover{color:#595959;text -decoration-color :#595959;} Ukuphuza amanzi nsuku zonke nokuba nesihlungi samanzi esihle kungasiza ekuthuthukiseni ukunambitheka kwamanzi nokususa ukungcola kwamanzi okuhlukahlukene. Nakuba i-US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ilawula ukungcola okuningi kanye namazinga awo, ungakhetha ukuhlunga amanzi akho ukuze ususe ukungcola okuthile. Kunezindlela eziningana zokuhlunga amanzi, kufaka phakathi isihlungi samanzi esingaphansi kwesinki esigcina isikhala esiqandisini noma ekhawunteni, kodwa imbiza yesihlungi samanzi iyindlela elula engadingi ukufakwa.
Emalabhorethri e-Good Housekeeping Institute, sihlola izinkulungwane zemikhiqizo, okuhlanganisa izihlungi zamanzi kanye namakhithi okuhlola ikhwalithi yamanzi, hhayi nje kuphela ukuze kusebenze kahle futhi kube lula ukuyisebenzisa, kodwa futhi ukuze kuhlolwe ukuphepha kanye nobungane bemvelo. Ukuze sihlole imbiza, sihlole ukuthi kulula kangakanani ukuyifaka nokuthi iphephile yini ekuhlanzeni izitsha. Sihlole nokuthi ishesha kangakanani ukuhlunga amanzi. Ekugcineni, sichithe amahora angu-37 sibheka amakhasi angaphezu kuka-200 edatha yokuhlolwa komuntu wesithathu yalezi zihlungi zembiza ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ngayinye ifanelana nalokho uhlobo oluthi lungakususa.
Ungafunda kabanzi ngendlela esihlole ngayo ama-water filter pitchers elabhorethri yethu kanye nakho konke okudingeka ukwazi ukuze uthenge i-water filter pitcher engcono kakhulu ekugcineni kwalesi siqondiso. Ingabe ufuna ukuletha amanzi nawe? Hlola amabhodlela ethu amanzi amahle kakhulu kanye neziqondiso ezinhle kakhulu zamabhodlela amanzi ahlakaniphile.
I-Brita ingenye yezinhlobo zokuhlunga amanzi ezaziwa kakhulu, ngakho-ke akumangazi ukuthi isihlungi samanzi se-Elite senze kahle ekuhlolweni kwethu futhi sahlunga ukungcola okungaphezu kuka-30.
Ngokusekelwe ekubuyekezweni kwethu kwedatha yokuhlolwa kwelebhu yomuntu wesithathu, sithole ukuthi isusa i-chlorine ukuze ithuthukise ukunambitheka, kanye namanye amakhemikhali afana nezinsimbi ezisindayo, izinto ezibangela umdlavuza, izidakamizwa, iziphazamisi ze-endocrine, nokuningi. Ayigcini nje ngokubonakala njengenketho yethu ephezulu, kodwa futhi iyinketho yethu ephezulu ngenxa yezindleko zayo eziphansi kusengaphambili kanye nezindleko eziphansi zokufaka esikhundleni izihlungi zonyaka.
Kungenye yezihlungi ezisheshayo esizihlolile, ezithatha imizuzwana engama-38 kuphela ngengilazi yamanzi, futhi ngokusho kweBrita, isihlungi sihlala cishe izinyanga eziyisithupha ngaphambi kokuba sidinge ukushintshwa. Isikhulu Esiphezulu Sezobuchwepheshe kanye ne-CTO uRachel Rothman, one-filter ekhaya, uthi: “Sinabantu abahlanu abomile endlini yethu futhi ngiyathanda ukuthi isihlungi sihlala isikhathi eside ngakho akudingeki ngisishintshe njalo futhi ngiyathanda iphunga lesihlungi samanzi.”
Ijagi liphethe izinkomishi zamanzi eziyi-10 kanti isihlungi se-Elite sithuthukisiwe kunesihlungi esijwayelekile. Lezi zihlungi azigcini nje ngokuhlala isikhathi eside, kodwa futhi zihlunga i-lead ngaphandle kokushiya izinhlayiya ze-carbon emnyama emanzini, okuyinkinga evamile ngezihlungi ezijwayelekile ze-Brita. SICELA UQAPHELE: Uma ugoba ijagi kakhulu, sithole ukuthi isihlungi sizowa, ngakho-ke kufanele kuqashelwe lapho uthulula. Ungathuthukela futhi ku-Tahoe pitcher, esebenzisa isihlungi esifanayo kodwa esihlala endaweni njengoba uthulula futhi inenkomba ehlakaniphile eyenza kube lula ukubona ukuthi ijagi idinga ukushintshwa nini.
I-Zero Water pitcher entsha engu-2-in-1 ikuvumela ukuthi uthele amanzi kusuka epayipini noma uhlale ekhawunteni bese ukha amanzi usebenzisa i-push-button faucet etholakala phansi kwe-pitcher. I-Zero Water Level 5 ifakwe imitha ye-Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) ekhombisa izinga likasawoti namaminerali ancibilikisiwe njenge-calcium, i-magnesium, i-sodium, i-sulfates, njll. emanzini. Ekuhlolweni kwethu kwelebhu, ukufundwa kwemitha kwakwenzeka ngokushesha. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ihlunga ukungcola kwamakhemikhali amahlanu, okuhlanganisa i-chlorine, izinsimbi ezisindayo, kanye neziphazamisi ze-endocrine ezifana ne-PFOA kanye ne-PFOS, ngokusekelwe ekubuyekezweni kwethu okuqinisekisiwe kwedatha yokuhlolwa komuntu wesithathu.
Kwenza kube lula futhi ukubona ukuthi isihlungi sidinga ukushintshwa nini: vele ucwilise imitha emanzini ahlungiwe bese ubhala ukufundwa. U-Zero uncoma ukushintsha isihlungi lapho ikhawunta ye-TDS ifunda u-006, yize lokhu kuyisinqumo sakho njengoba i-TDS ingathinta ukunambitheka kwamanzi. Abanye abantu bangase bathande ukuba ne-TDS eningi emanzini abo, kanti abanye bakhetha i-TDS encane. Itholakala ngezinkomishi eziyi-10 noma eziyi-12. Kodwa-ke, enye yezinkinga zayo izindleko eziphakeme zokushintsha isihlungi minyaka yonke.
I-AquaTru Water Filter isusa ukungcola okungaphezu kuka-80, okungenye yezilinganiso eziphakeme kakhulu kunanoma yisiphi isihlungi samanzi esisihlolile, okwenza kube ngesinye sezilinganiso eziphakeme kakhulu ezivivinyweni zethu. Sifakazele ukuthi ingasusa izinsimbi ezisindayo njenge-chlorine kanye ne-lead, ukungcola okufana ne-VOCs, imithi, iziphazamisi ze-endocrine nokuningi. Ngaphezu kwalokho, isusa i-fluoride engaphezu kuka-90%, abanye abantu abangase bayithande kanti abanye abangase bangayithandi.
I-AquaTru iza nezihlungi ezintathu ezahlukene: isihlungi sangaphambi/ikhabhoni, isihlungi se-reverse osmosis kanye nesihlungi se-VOC. Isihlungi sangaphambi/ilahle sisusa izinhlayiya ezifana ne-sediment kanye nokugqwala, kanye ne-chlorine, okuthuthukisa ukunambitheka. I-reverse osmosis isusa ukungcola okuncane njenge-1/10,000 micron, okunciphisa i-arsenic, i-lead, ama-cyst e-parasitic, ithusi, njll. Zonke lezi zimangalo zokususa ukungcola zisekelwa ukubuyekezwa kwethu kwedatha yokuhlolwa kwelebhu ezimele.
Izihlungi ze-Carbon VOC zenzelwe ukuthuthukisa ukunambitheka kwamanzi. Uma ukhetha ukunambitheka kwamanzi akho, kukhona nenketho yokuthenga isihlungi se-Ph+ Mineral Enhanced Alkaline Carbon VOC, okufanele silingise ukunambitheka okucebile ngamaminerali kwe-Evian noma i-Arrowhead, kuyilapho isihlungi se-VOC esivamile sinambitheka kakhulu njengaso, ngokusho kwe-AquaTru, i-Smartwater noma i-Aquafina.
Ochwepheshe bethu bayaqonda ukuthi uhlelo lokusebenza lwe-AquaTru lukutshela ukuthi isihlungi sakho sidinga ukushintshwa nini, kanye nezinye izibalo ezifana namagalani amanzi ahlungiwe noma izinhlayiya ezincibilikisiwe ngokuphelele empompini nasemanzini ahlungiwe. Ithangi lamanzi empompini liphatha izinkomishi ezingu-16 zamanzi ngakho akudingeki uligcwalise njalo, futhi isibambo sokuthwala senza kube lula ukungena nokuphuma esinkini.
Okubi: Izindleko zokuqala zalesi sitsha sokukhipha amanzi ziphezulu cishe ku-$485, kodwa isihlungi sihlala isikhathi eside kuneziningi, ngakho-ke izindleko zonyaka zokufaka isihlungi zifana nezinye izimbiza ezihlunga izinto ezincane ezingcolisayo.
Ukubukeka okukhulu kwe-colander kungaba yinto ecasulayo, kodwa le mbiza ethambile enezibambo zokhuni yinhle futhi kulula ukuyisebenzisa. UNicole Papantaniou, umqondisi we-Kitchen Utensils and Innovation Lab kwa-GH, uthanda isibambo sokhuni kanye nokulula kokubamba nokuthulula. Sekuseduze ukuthi kuphume ebhokisini, yize kuzodingeka ucwilise isihlungi ngaphambi kokusisebenzisa (isikhwama sesihlungi sisebenza njengesikhwama sokucwilisa!).
Sithole kulula futhi ukugcwalisa sisebenzisa isembozo esipheqa phezulu: mane ubeke ijagi ngaphansi kompompi bese ivalvu ephezulu izokwehla ngokucindezela kwamanzi. Nakuba ingeyona isihlungi esisheshayo, isenesilinganiso esihle sokukhipha amanzi semizuzwana engama-74 ngendebe ngayinye. Nakuba ingahlungi izinto eziningi ezingcolisayo njengezinye izitsha zokuhlunga amanzi esizihlolile, ukubuyekezwa kwethu kwedatha yokuhlolwa kwelebhu yangaphandle kuqinisekisa ukuthi isusa i-chlorine ukuze ithuthukise ukunambitheka kwamanzi, kanye nezinsimbi ezine ezisindayo.
Izihlungi eziningi zamanzi zisusa i-chlorine ukuze kuthuthukiswe ukunambitheka kwamanzi, okungaholela ekwandeni kwamagciwane emanzini ahlungiwe. I-Larq ixazulula le nkinga ngokusebenzisa ukukhanya kwe-ultraviolet ukucindezela ukuqongelela kwe-E. coli ne-Salmonella emanzini ngenxa yokususwa kwe-chlorine. Ihlunga ukungcola okungaphezu kuka-45 njenge-microplastics, izinsimbi ezisindayo, ama-organic compounds aguquguqukayo, ama-endocrine disruptors i-PFOA ne-PFOS, imithi yezokwelapha nokuningi, njengoba kuqinisekiswe ukuhlaziywa kwedatha yokuhlolwa komuntu wesithathu. Inenduku ephinde ishajwe kabusha, esuswayo enika amandla ukukhanya kwe-UV okuyibona lapho amanzi ehlungiwe.
Ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa kwethu kwelebhu, uhlelo lokusebenza lwe-Larq bekulula ukulufaka futhi luwusizo ekulandeleleni ukuthi udinga ukushintsha nini isihlungi sakho. Kufanele kuqashelwe ukuthi sithole ukuthi uhlelo lokusebenza ngezinye izikhathi luyazinqamula noma luzikhiphe, ngakho ukulandelela kungase kungabi nembile ngokuphelele.
Sithanda ukubukeka kwesimanje kanye ne-spout ekhululekile engachithi amanzi yonke indawo. Ochwepheshe bethu bathole ukuthi ukusetha kwayo kunembile, futhi kwakungenye yezimbiza ezimbalwa eziphephile zomshini wokuwasha izitsha esivivinyweni sethu. Induku idinga ukugezwa ngesandla, kodwa sikuthole kulula ngenxa yobukhulu bayo obuncane. Okubi: Izindleko zokushintsha isihlungi sonyaka ziphakeme kunezinye esizihlolile.
Okwenza i-Aarke ihluke kakhulu yisihlungi samanzi sensimbi engagqwali esiyingqayizivele. Esikhundleni sokulahla ikhatriji yesihlungi sepulasitiki njengezimbiza eziningi zesihlungi, ijagi yesihlungi se-Aarke yenza kube lula ukufaka esikhundleni izinhlayiya ezingaphakathi kwesihlungi sensimbi engagqwali. Isiza ukususa i-chlorine, ithusi, i-lead kanye ne-limescale.
Imbiza iphethe izinkomishi zamanzi eziyi-10 futhi kwakulula ngathi ukuyigcwalisa ngesivalo esisuswayo. Imbiza ibukeka ibushelelezi futhi yenziwe ngengilazi nensimbi engagqwali, okwenza ibukeke njengeyesimanje kunezimbiza zepulasitiki. Ngeshwa, ibiza kakhulu kunezimbiza zepulasitiki eziningi ezinezinkomishi eziyi-10. Amabhampa e-silicone avimbela imbiza ukuthi ingasheleli futhi iwe, futhi ingasuswa uma ungazidingi.
Ama-colander amaningi awaphephile ekuhlanzeni izitsha, ngakho kuzodingeka uwageze ngesandla, okuyisinye sezizathu ezenza ochwepheshe bethu bathande le Pur colander. Zonke izingxenye zingagezwa kumshini wokuwasha izitsha, ngakho asikho isidingo sokugeza izandla zakho. Lapho siyihlola ekhaya, sikuthole kulula ukugcwalisa nokuthulula ngenxa yesembozo esihlala sikhona lapho uthulula. Izihlungi ezijwayelekile zisiza ukususa i-chlorine nezinye izinsimbi ezisindayo, esiziqinisekisile ngokuhlaziya idatha yokuhlolwa kwelebhu yomuntu wesithathu.
Siyazisa futhi ukwakheka okuncane kwale jagi enezinkomishi ezi-7, okusindisa isikhala esiqandisini ngoba kungadingeka ukuthi uyigcwalise njalo. Enye inzuzo yale jagi encane ukuthi iza ngemibala ejabulisayo kufaka phakathi i-lime (esithombeni), i-blush kanye ne-blue. Baphinde babe nejagi yamanzi enezinkomishi eziyi-11 ukuze bonge uma beya esinkini.
Lesi sihlungi samanzi esincane kodwa esinamandla sithuthukisa ukunambitheka nokucaca kwamanzi futhi sisusa ukungcola okungaphezu kuka-30 okuhlanganisa i-chlorine, ama-microplastics, i-sediment, izinsimbi ezisindayo, ama-VOC, ama-endocrine disruptors, izibulala-zinambuzane, imithi yezokwelapha, i-E. coli kanye nama-cysts. Qinisekisa ngokubukeza idatha yokuhlolwa kwelebhu yomkhiqizo evela eceleni. Imikhiqizo eminingi inikeza amajagi epulasitiki kuphela, kodwa i-LifeStraw itholakala kokubili ngengilazi kanye nepulasitiki.
Ekuhlolweni kwethu, sithande ukuthi ilula, kulula ukuyibamba nokuyithulula, futhi inesisindo esingamakhilogremu angu-6 kuphela uma igcwalisiwe. Inzuzo ukuthi kuzodingeka uyigcwalise kaningi ngoba ayigcini amanzi amaningi (igcina izinkomishi ezingu-2.5 zamanzi ompompi kuphela). I-LifeStraw ithi imbiza idinga ukugcwaliswa kaningi ukuze amanzi aqhubeke egeleza, kodwa siphawulile ukuthi ngisho nangemva kokugcwaliswa kambalwa, amanzi ayesahlungwa kancane. SICELA UQAPHELE: Sithole ukuthi isihlungi kulula ukusihlanza ngengozi, okubangela insipho ukuthi ingene esihlungini, ngakho qiniseka ukuthi uyayifunda imiyalelo bese uyisusa ebhodweni lepulasitiki ngaphambi kokuhlanza.
Isihlungi seBerkey sihamba phambili ohlwini lokususa ukungcola okuningi kunanoma yisiphi esinye isihlungi samanzi esisihlolile: ukungcola okungaphezu kuka-200, okuhlanganisa ukungcola kwamakhemikhali okuvamile okususa ama-pitcher amaningi njenge-chlorine, i-cadmium kanye ne-lead, futhi siyaqinisekisa ukuthi siyakwenza futhi. sisusa amagciwane, izifo ezibangelwa amagciwane, amabhaktheriya, amakhemikhali e-volatious organic, imithi ethile, kanye nokungcola kukaphethiloli njengophethiloli kanye namafutha aluhlaza. Uma ufuna ukususa i-fluoride emanzini, lena ingenye yamadivayisi ambalwa angakwenza, kodwa kuzodingeka uthenge isihlungi se-fluoride ngokwehlukana.
Ekuhlolweni kwethu kwelebhu, siphawule ukuthi lesi sitsha sokuhambisa itafula sidinga umsebenzi omningi ukuze sisethwe kunezinye, futhi imiyalelo yayingacacile njengoba besingathanda. Kodwa uma sesifakiwe, kulula kakhulu ukusisebenzisa, yize singakuthandanga ukuthi awukwazi ukufaka ithangi (izikulufo zizophazamisa, ngakho kuzodingeka ulibambe ngenkathi ligcwalisa noma uhambise ithangi emuva naphambili). Thela amanzi avela ejagini ungene ethangini). Ngakolunye uhlangothi, sinethangi elikhulu likaphethiloli, ngakho akudingeki uchithe isikhathi esiningi uligcwalisa.
Sithole nokuthi ihlungwa kancane kancane ezivivinyweni zethu zelebhu. Kodwa-ke, abahloli bethu basekhaya abazange babhekane nale nkinga. I-Berkey iza ngobukhulu obuhlukahlukene, iqala ku-$345 ngencane kunazo zonke, kodwa i-Berkey ithi isihlungi singahlanzwa izikhathi ezifika ku-100 ngendwangu ye-Scotch-Brite engu-3M. Lokhu kungonga imali ngokuhamba kwesikhathi uma kuqhathaniswa nama-pitcher adinga ukushintsha izihlungi njalo ezinyangeni ezimbalwa.
I-Hydros Slim Glass Pitcher isusa i-chlorine kanye ne-sediment, ithuthukisa ukunambitheka kanye nokucaca kwamanzi. Lokhu kuhle kulabo abafuna i-pitcher elula, futhi usayizi wayo omncane ongamasentimitha angu-4 ungonga isikhala esiqandisini. Ababuyekezi bethu bathole ukuthi ilula uma igcwele, inesisindo esingaphansi kwamakhilogremu angu-4. Esikuthandayo ukuthi lesi sihlungi asidingi ukucwiliswa kusengaphambili, mane usihlanze ngamanzi agobhozayo imizuzwana engu-15 bese sikulungele ukusetshenziswa.
Ochwepheshe bethu bamangala kakhulu ukuthi ihlunga amanzi cishe ngokushesha. Okubi: Imbobo incane futhi amanzi agcwala kalula ngesembozo uma egcwaliswa. Amanzi aphuma kahle, yize kukhona ubunzima phansi uma ubamba intamo yejagi ukuze uthele. Iyatholakala futhi ngenguqulo yepulasitiki.
Yebo, isihlungi samanzi singasusa izinto ezingcolisayo njengezinsimbi ezisindayo, amakhemikhali, izidakamizwa, nokunye. Amanye amakhemikhali, njenge-chlorine, anezelwa emanzini asedolobheni ukuze ahlanze amagciwane, kodwa abantu abaningi bakhetha ukuwahlunga ngoba kungathinta kabi ukunambitheka.
Khumbula ukuthi akuzona zonke izihlungi zamanzi ezisusa ukungcola okufanayo. Imiklamo eminingi eyisisekelo isusa ukungcola okufana ne-chlorine kanye nezinto eziphuma kuyo kuphela uma kuhlanganiswa nezinto eziphilayo, kanti eminye isusa ukungcola okwengeziwe.
UDkt. Birnur Aral, uMqondisi Omkhulu we-Beauty, Health and Sustainability Laboratory, uthe: “Ukusebenza kwesihlungi samanzi kuncike nasezingeni lomthombo wamanzi kanye nokushintshwa kwesihlungi njalo.” ngamanzi omthombo, okuzoholela ekuvalekeni ngokushesha. “Abantu abanezinhlelo zamanzi omthombo kufanele baxhumane nensizakalo yokuhlunga amanzi yobungcweti efana neCulligan.
Ochwepheshe be-Institute for Good Housekeeping bethu bafuna imakethe ama-water filter pitchers amahle kakhulu bese besebenzisa ulwazi lwethu ukunciphisa izivivinyo zethu zibe yimikhiqizo ethembisa kakhulu.
