He aha i whiriwhiri ai koe i tētahi ipu tātari wai? Ko te whakaaro uara tino pai

[Te Kaupapa Rapu: Te Mōhiotanga ki te Raru me te Otinga]

He take pai te nuinga o ngā ipu tātari wai e whakamahia ana i te mākete. He otinga tino pai ēnei mēnā:

• Rētihia tō whare, ā, kāore e taea te tāuta i ngā taputapu tuturu
• He iti te wāhi, ā, me whai otinga kiato
• E hiahia ana koe ki tētahi wāhi utu iti mō te wai tātari ($20-$50 i mua)
• Me kawe mō ngā tari, ngā whare noho, ngā whare iti rānei

Ahakoa te māmā noa iho, he nui ake ngā poke e tangohia ana e ngā oko hou i mua, ā, ko ētahi tauira he rite ki ngā pūnaha utu nui ake mō ngā raruraru wai noa.

Te Mahi Tuturu a ngā Ipu Tātari Wai: Te Pūtaiao i Whakamāmātia

[Te Kaupapa Rapu: Mōhiohio / Te Mahi]

Ko te nuinga o ngā ipu wai e whakamahi ana i te tukanga tātari e rua ngā wāhanga:

1. Tātari Ā-Mīhini: Ka mau te waikura, te paru, me ētahi atu matūriki he iti noa iho i te 1-5 maikorona te rahi i roto i te mata kore-whatu.
2. Tātari Waro Whakahohe: Te uho o te pūnaha. Waro poraka kirikiri, poraka totoka rānei:
   • Ka mimiti (ka kukume, ka pupuri) i ngā poke pērā i te chlorine, ngā VOC, me ngā patupatu ki runga i tōna mata nui.
   • Ka whakaiti i ngā konganuku taumaha pēnei i te mata, te konukōrei, me te parahi mā te whakaiti i te kaha o te konukōrei.

Ka tāpirihia pea e ngā ipu matatau te kapia whakawhiti-katote hei whakaiti i te pakeketanga (tauine) me ētahi atu rauemi motuhake rānei.

Ngā Mea Ka Taea, Ngā Mea Kāore e Taea e Ngā Kaiwhiu te Tango: Te Whakatakoto i Ngā Tumanakotanga Tuturu

[Te Kaupapa Rapu: "He aha ngā mea ka tangohia e ngā tātari ipu wai"]

He Kōrero Matua: He tino pai ngā ipu para mō te whakapai ake i te reka me te whakaiti i ngā poke o te wai paipa, engari ehara i te otinga tino pai mō te wai puna, mō ngā puna kua tino poke rānei.

Ngā Ipu Tātari Wai Pai e 3 o te tau 2024

I runga i te mahi tātari, te utu-mō ia karani, te kaha, me te tere.

**I runga i te tātari 1 karani ia rā me te roanga o te tātari. Brita (~$20/6marama), ZeroWater (~$25/1-2marama), PUR (~$20/3marama).*

Te Utu Tuturu o te Mana Pupuri: Ngā Ipu me ngā Wai Pounamu

[Te Kaupapa Rapu: Te Whakamārama / Te Whakataurite Uara]

Koinei te wāhi e tiaho nui ai ngā kaiwhiu.

• Vs. Wai Pounamu: Ka penapenahia e te whānau e $20 ia wiki mō te wai pounamu ($1,040 ia tau) neke atu i te $900 ia tau mā te whakamahi i tētahi ipu wai ($130 mō ngā tātari).
• Te Utu mō ia Karani: Ko te tikanga he $0.25 – $0.35 mō ia karani, engari ko te $1.50 – $9.00 mō ia karani wai pounamu.
• Ngā Pānga ki te Taiao: Ka whakakapia e te kātere tātari kotahi te 300 o ngā pounamu wai kirihou paerewa.

Rārangi Arowhai Hokonga 5-Hipanga

[Te Kaupapa Rapu: Arumoni - Aratohu Hoko]

1. Tāutuhia tō raruraru wai: He reka (hauora), he pakeke (tauine), he poke motuhake rānei (mata)? Tirohia tō Pūrongo Kounga Wai (CCR) ā-rohe.
2. Tirohia mēnā he Tiwhikete NSF: Kaua e whakawhirinaki noa ki ngā kereme hokohoko. Rapua ngā tau tiwhikete NSF/ANSI mana kei runga i te pouaka (hei tauira, NSF 53 mō te whakaiti i te mata).
3. Whakaarohia te Pūmanawa me te Tere: Ka hiahia te whānau nui ki tētahi ipu wai kaha, he tere te whakakī. Tērā pea ka whakaritea he hoahoa kiato hei whiriwhiri mā te tangata takitahi.
4. Tātaihia te Utu mō te Wā Roa: Ka nui ake te utu mō tētahi ipu iti te utu me ngā tātari utu nui, poto te ora i roto i te wā. Tātaihia te utu mō ia karani.
5. Rapua ngā Āhuatanga Whakangāwari: Ka whakapai ake ngā tohu tātari hiko, ngā kakau ergonomic, me ngā taupoki whakakī-ngāwari i te wheako o ia rā.

Te Whakanui i te Mahi me te Roa o te Ora o tō Kaiwhiu

[Te Kaupapa Rapu: "Me pēhea te whakamahi i te ipu tātari wai"]

• Whakakīia he Tātari Hou: Me rumakina, me horoi hoki te tātari hou mō te 15 meneti kia rite ki ngā tohutohu. Mā tēnei ka ārai i te puehu waro i roto i ō puranga tuatahi.
• Puritia kia Matao, kia Kī tonu: Rokirokihia tō hāte wai ki roto i te pouaka whakamātao. Puritia kia kī tonu kia tātarihia, kia whakamatao hoki te wai i ngā wā katoa.
• Kaua e Tatari mō te Māramatanga: Ki te kore he tohu a tō kaiwhiu pōro, whakatakotoria he whakamaumahara maramataka mō ngā marama e rua hei taunoa. Ka heke te whai huatanga o te tātari i roto i te wā.
• Horoia i ia wā: Horoia te ipu me te taupoki ki te hopi ngawari me te wai i ia wiki hei ārai i te tipu o ngā kitakita.

Ngā Pātai Auau: Te Whakautu i ngā Pātai Tino Noa mō ngā Kaiwhiu

[Te Kaupapa Rapu: "Ka Pātai Anō hoki te Iwi"]

P: He aha te take e pānuihia ana e taku ipu ZeroWater he TDS o te 006? Kāore ianei e kiia ana he kore?
A: He pai tonu te pānui o te 006, ā, e tohu ana kua tata te mutunga o tō tātari. Ko te "Kore" te mea tino pai, engari ko te mea kei raro iho i te 010 ka taea te purea mō te inu.

P: Ka taea e au te whakamahi i tētahi tātari whānui/"kāore i te waitohu" i roto i taku ipu Brita, PUR rānei?
Āe, engari kia tūpato. Ahakoa he iti ake te utu, kāore pea i a rātou ngā tiwhikete NSF ōrite, ā, ka kore pea e pai te uru, ka puta he turuturu, ka ngoikore rānei te mahi.

P: He haumaru te wai o taku hāte mō aku mōkai (ika, ngā ngārara)?
Āe, mō ngā kararehe whakangote (ngeru, kurī). Mō ngā ika me ngā ngārara, kāore pea. He maha ngā wā ka tangohia e te tātari te haukini, he mea pai tēnā, engari kāore pea e tangohia te haukini.amine, he paitini ki ngā ika. Kāore hoki e whakatika i te pH, i te pakeke rānei, he mea nui tēnei mō ngā mōkai wai.

Q: He reka te wai tātari o taku wai. He mea noa tēnā?
A: He kitenga noa tēnei mō ētahi tātari waro, ā, kāore he kino i te nuinga o te wā. Tērā pea nā te iti o te hekenga o te waikawa, nā te tango rānei i ngā matū reka kawa.

Te Whakataunga Whakamutunga

Mō te nuinga o te hunga noho tāone e hiahia ana ki te whakapai ake i te reka me te whakaiti i ngā poke noa, ka tukuna e te Brita me te tātari Longlast te pauna pai rawa atu o te utu, te mahi, me te watea.

Mō te hunga e nui ake ana te āwangawanga mō ngā konganuku taumaha, e hiahia ana rānei ki te wai tino parakore, ā, kāore e māharahara ki te utu nui tonu, ko ZeroWater te toa motuhake.
