Recognizing a Need for Filtered Water

In 1999, Aquasana products were designed on the premise of making healthy drinking and bathing water easily accessible.

Aquasana offers a full line of water filter products for the home, including countertop and under counter drinking water filters, showerhead filters and whole-house filtration systems.

 Aquasana filters strip out more than 99% of the chlorine, lead, herbicides, pesticides, industrial solvents and cysts found in tap water while preserving its healthiest elements, which include calcium, magnesium, iron and potassium.

Drinking filtered tap water is the safest option because 60% to 70% of all bottled water is exempt from the FDA’s bottled water standards and often presents the same health concerns as unfiltered tap water.

Bathing in filtered water is also very important, as studies show that we absorb 100 times more chlorine (not to mention THMs, VOCs and other volatile toxins) in a ten-minute shower than from drinking a glass of the same water.

Aquasana filters have been named a “Best Buy” by Consumers Digest for six consecutive years and “one of the seven healthiest new products for your home” by Health magazine (June 2010).

Aquasana’s exclusive selective filtration system uses a combination of carbon filtration, ion-exchange and sub-micron filtration to conveniently produce delicious, safe and healthy water in the home.

Due to the superior technology and the sleek cylindrical design of the filter, the water contact with the filtration materials is maximized, providing better water quality overall and a higher percentage of eliminated contaminants. Simply put, Aquasana takes out the bad and leaves in the good.

The costs and energy expended yearly to create and maintain an at-home water filter are miniscule compared to those of a year’s supply of bottled water. Aquasana water filters cost less to use per gallon of water than other filters on the market and bottled water because the replacement cartridges only have to be changed twice a year. The majority, 90% to be exact, of the cost of bottled water comes from producing and shipping the plastic bottle.

In addition, drinking bottled water contributes to the largest pollution issue facing our country. People in the U.S. throw away more than 2 million plastic bottles per hour, and 80% of those bottles end up in landfills and in our oceans where it takes more than 700 years for them to just begin decomposing. According to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, in New York alone, nearly 2.5 billion bottles of water a year are sold. Stacked up end to end, they would reach the moon.

Aquasana filters eliminate the need for buying bottled water and our cartridges are one part recyclable and one part biodegradable. For more information about Aquasana’s countertop and under counter drinking water filters, showerhead filters, and Whole House filters visit AquasanaProducts.com.
