BENSALEM, Pa., Jan. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The People's Chemist, Shane Ellison, recently put several water filters to the test with Los Angeles's tap water, naming ZeroWater the best fluoride filter because of the 5-stage ion exchange filter and its low price point.
"I tested several common brands, Pur and Brita failed miserably, as did carbon filters in the fridge." One model, however, stood above the others: ZeroWater. According to California's State Water Resources Control Board (http://bit.ly/14BOC42 ), the year-to-date 2013 average monthly fluoride in the city of Los Angeles was 0.62 milligrams per liter with some areas of the LA County reaching 0.96, well above the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' recommendation of 0.7 (http://cbsloc.al/1BJzccK ).
According to The People's Chemist (http://bit.ly/1uB15Pt ), both chlorine and fluoride "are dumped into city tap water by the truckload." Citing the Environmental Protection Agency, he points out that "fluoride and chloride may contribute to weakening of the skeletal system, depression, kidney problems, obesity, respiratory problems and even cancer." He believes the best way to avoid these contaminants is not with a pricey reverse osmosis system but rather an inexpensive fluoride filter that also targets chloride.
With ZeroWater, Ellison found both fluoride and chloride levels to be undetectable stating that ZeroWater is superior to the competition due to the unique five-stage filter technology.
"We are excited to see yet another well-documented independent lab study that underscores the superior performance of our filter. Our technology is simply very different from others, allowing our filters to remove 99.6% of dissolved solids from water, about double what conventional filters remove," states ZeroWater CEO, Doug Kellam.
ZeroWater is available at select retailers across the United States and Canada. For more information, please visit www.zerowater.com.
Zero Technologies, LLC developed the ZeroWater 5-stage ion exchange filter the mission of delivering the best filtration possible to consumers by removing virtually all total dissolved solids. No other filter pitcher can make this claim. ZeroWater is the only gravity-fed filtration system to match the TDS levels found in Purified Bottled Water. The breakthrough ZeroWater filter has received certifications by NSF International and the Water Quality Association for the removal of copper, iron, zinc, aluminum, lead, chromium, mercury, chlorine and hydrogen sulfide.
