Types of Water
Purified Water*: Water that has been treated by distillation, reverse osmosis, or another suitable process may meet standards that allow it to be labeled as "purified water."
Artesian Water*: This water is collected from a well that taps an aquifer - layers of porous rock, sand and earth that contain water - which is under pressure from surrounding upper layers of rock or clay. When tapped, the pressure in the aquifier, commonly called artesian pressure, pushes the water above the level of the aquifier, sometimes to the surface. Other means may be used to help bring the water to the surface.
Natural Spring Water*: Derived from an underground formation from which water flows naturally to the surface, this water must be collected only at the spring or through a borehole that taps the underground formation feeding the spring. If some external force is used to collect the water through a borehole, the water must have the same composition and quality as the water that naturally flows to the surface.
We at the Wet Vet understand people have different tastes and budgets and that is why we have chosen to offer 3 different types of water for our clients. It is our goal to ensure our clients are pleased with the quality of our water as well as the manner it is delivered.
