New Mum Tips n' Tricks

Are you a pregnant mum who's trying everything to drink enough water but are constantly put off by the smell or taste?

Tap water smells like a swimming pool. Filter jugs require multiple manual daily refills. The smell of plastic from a plastic bottle makes the water taste as if it's been left in back of the car for days.

You've even tried glass mason jars, herbal teas and mint-infused water but nothing stops that off-putting odour that makes drinking enough water a real challenge.

This is exactly why over 180,000 UK homes use this obvious yet forgotten about trick to stop their water having a hold over them.

1. The change of smell is NOT in your head

The change of smell and taste is different for everyone. But a common one we read about is water that tastes 'metallic' or 'swimming pool like' or 'copper coiny'.

This can be caused by something called Dysgeusia, a distorting of your taste.

2. You're told to drink more water - but what if it tastes rank?

Like a lot of advice, staying hydrated is always mentioned. But what do you do when the water tastes horrible?

Chlorine is routinely used to disinfect the water - great.

But this water can then taste like a leisure centre swimming pool - not great.

This Chlorine smell can be contributing to your current distaste for water. That's why a water filter can make a real difference to your sense of smell and taste.

3. Why I would switch to something powerful and easy to setup

Unlike a lot of filter systems, I would always reccomend one where you don't need a new tap. That can turn into a lot of headache (that you definitely don't need at the moment).

I'd reccomend something that goes under the sink and turns the tap into a stream of filtered water before it reaches your glass.

No bulky jug filters, no endless refills — just filtered, great-tasting water whenever you turn on the tap.

4. It's not just tackling the smell and taste - it's what else it can filter

I feel that people are becoming more aware of what they consume, whether it's the food they eat, the clothes they wear or the water they drink. It's good to be in as much control as possible.

That's why the Water2 Pod 2.0 can filter up to 95.28% of Chlorine tackling that smell and taste.

But it can also filter things like lead, microplastics and THM's as well.* It's powerful, convenient and trusted by over 180,000 homes to deliver filtered water straight from the tap.

5. Taste can be subjective but satisfaction shouldn't be

Water2 offers a 100 day 'love it or leave it' guarantee on all of their orders.

That means you can try it for 99 days and on the 99th day if you are not absolutely certain that having filtered water on tap has not improved your life, feel free to return for a full refund.

Customer photo review of Rainfall Capsule

Does what it’s supposed to giving us reassurance we’re cleansing our bodies with good water. And was so easy to replace.

Rainfall Capsule

I love the water filter No. 2 - but we had to get a plumber out to fit it as we did when we got water filter No. 1. But now it's fitted we are loving it.

The Pod 2.0 Starter Kit

excellent at softening shower water

Rainfall Capsule

It’s does what it says on the box. I was sceptical but thought after deliberating, to give it a go. I am very pleased we did. The difference in the taste of the water is immediate and to be honest, a huge relief. The showerhead is good as well, just wish you could alter the angle perhaps a little more but again, does make a difference. I understand that the filters have to be changed yearly so providing they are not too expensive, the whole thing is brilliant. Easy to install, clean and sharp and small to house!
