The Cruel Hidden Truth of Household Water Filters in Malaysia. When it comes to water filter, the first most common question buyers will ask is, "How good is your water filter and the quality of its treated water?" In line with such 'requirement', water filter suppliers make many manipulative claims which are mainly false. The simple reason links to the basic marketing rule of "supply versus demand". Even as the buyers possess little scientific knowledge on water quality and its treatment process, they demand super high-tech products and hence, opening a loophole for sellers to take advantage of this situation. All genuine water treatment professionals know the truth but it is difficult to explain and to prove this to the not-so-technically-inclined users. Generally, people are reluctant to accept the cruel truth. Even those who are willing to listen would impatiently demand the explanations to be brief. Therefore, only certain misleading brief information is understood and yet still, not the whole truth. I personally feel that the public should be educated with some basic scientific knowledge of the water treatment and water quality specifications recommended by the World Health Organisation, before they jump into any conclusion. With more then 20 years experience in the design and commissioning of various water treatment projects mainly, in Malaysia, I have accumulated sufficient experience and knowledge to comment on water issues that may seriously affect the users' health. I dare firmly declare that most household water filters in Malaysia market are carcinogen (cancer-causing agent) generators. In order to prove this statement, I have no other choice but to drag the reader into the tedious theories of science and the technical aspect of water treatment. Visit the W.H.O to find out more:
