The Risks of Chlorination By-Products

Lab animals exposed to very high levels of THMs have an increased risk of cancer. Several studies on humans have also found a link between long-term exposure to high levels of chlorination by-products and a higher risk of cancer. For instance, a recent study showed an increased risk of bladder and possibly colon cancer in people who drank chlorinated water for 35 years or more.

High levels of THMs may also have an effect on pregnancy. A California study found that pregnant women who drank large amounts of tap water with high THMs had an increased risk of miscarriage. These studies do not prove that there is a link between THMs and cancer or miscarriage. However, they do show the need for further research in this area to confirm potential health effects.

The Cost Of Bottled Water

How much does it cost you a month to drink bottled water?
Here is Winnipeg's tap water vs bottled water.


Winnipeg's tap water cost $1.35/cubic meter (1000 litres of water), that is .0014 cents per litre.
A bottle of water costs between 50 cents and $1.29/500ml, or an average of  $1.80 per litre.
A 5 gallon jug of waters average cost is about $3.00 (about 19 litres), that is .16 cents per litre.

Bottled water is on average 1300 times more expensive than Winnipeg tap water.
5 gallon jugs are on average 115 times more expensive than tap water.

It is recommended that an average person drinks 8 cups a day, about 2 litres.
If you were to drink your monthly requirement of 2 litres of water a day (about 600 litres a month), and just were to use bottled water it would cost you about $1200 a month.
If you use 5 gallon jugs of water it would cost about $96 a month.
If you use Winnipeg tap water it would cost you about $0.84 a month.
