Leading brand Brita-style pitchers, refrigerator filters, and other carbon filters simply cannot reduce well-known contaminants such as lead, arsenic, chromium VI—and a host of others. Really, they are only designed (and certified) to reduce taste and odor—not what you need for clean!

Purification like reverse osmosis, is good and bad. It’s good at removing contaminants but bad because it removes the good naturally occurring alkaline minerals too. Purification also leaves the water acidic and harder to drink and absorb. And it wastes up to six gallons for every gallon of drinking water produced. Purified it isn't a healthy or sustainable answer.
So What'sThe Answer? Ultrawater Filtration Technology!
We think the ultimate answer is UltraWater™. It is the only water ionizer filter we know of that is independently and rigorously tested against 249 contaminants in EPA certified labs—reducing virtually all of them to 99.9%, including the toughest things like chromium VI, arsenic, heavy metals, pharmaceuticals and more. While leaving in what’s good!
Turbochargers combined new and existing technologies to create unprecedented performance. Similarly, UltraWater combines a new cutting-edge media with proven top-performers, then adds a new manufacturing technique. The result? Unmatched, proven filtration performance.
