Safety
Drink Culligan bottled water
to avoid these possible water
contaminants:
 |
|
Carbon
Dioxide, Smoke, Sulfur
Water is sometimes
known as the universal solvent. It has a tendency
to dissolve a little bit of everything it touches.
Dust, smoke from industry, carbon dioxide, spores
and smog may be absorbed by water droplets. |
|
|
|
Acid
Rain
For example, if it dissolves
sulfur from industrial smokestacks, it can form
acid rain. This increases its capacity to dissolve
other substances. The water vapor in clouds eventually
condenses and falls back to earth as rain, sleet,
hail or snow. |
|
|
|
Calcium,
Hydrogen Sulfide, Iron, Magnesium, Sodium, Radioactivity
As water runs over the surface it can become
cloudy, even muddy. Then, as water seeps down through
the ground, it may dissolve a little bit of the
minerals and other substances that could be present.

|
|
Odor,
TCE, PCB, Trihalomethanes
By the time
water returns to rivers, lakes or underground aquifers,
it may have accumulated amounts of the elements
it has contacted. |
|
|
|
Fungicides,
Herbicides, Insecticides
Along the
way bacteria, chemicals, agricultural byproducts,
fertilizers, insecticides and other man-made wastes
may also enter the water. Even after reaching a
home, it can continue to dissolve materials such
as lead from solder in plumbing pipes |
