Sunbeam Pure Source features a micro-fine 0.5 micron carbon block filter which removes contaminants
from water that can cause bad taste and odour, as well as being harmful to your health.
Some of the potential contaminants of concern are listed below, along with the sources of each and
their their potential health effects.
Contaminant
Chlorine
Source
Health Effect
Purposely put into water by water
treatment plants for disinfection.
Can cause bad taste and odour.
Lead
Lead can enter your water from
lead plumbing, lead solder and
brass alloy taps.
Lead can interfere with red blood
cells, delay physical and mental
development in babies and
children, increase blood pressure
and damage kidneys in adults.
Cysts
(Cryptosporidium
& Giardia)
Main source is from animal faeces
containing the cysts. Run off
carries cysts into lakes and rivers.
A hard shell protects these micro-
organisms from the chlorine
disinfection.
Cysts can cause acute flu like
symptoms that can last one to
three weeks in healthy adults.
Effects on children or the elderly
can be more serious and life
threatening for those with
suppressed immune systems such
as cancer patients or HIV/Aids
patients.
Lindane
(a common
pesticide)
Chemicals can soak through the
soil into ground water, or can be
carried into lakes and rivers by
rainwater run off.
Lindane has been shown to
damage liver, kidney, nervous
system and immune system in lab
animals. At high levels, it has
caused nervous and circulatory
system damage in humans.
Atrazine
(a common
herbicide)
Atrazine has been shown to affect
the hearts and babies of lab
animals.
Mercury
Mercury can get into the water
supply as a result of improper
