Water Filtration

Using a water filter in your kitchen or bathroom can be a great way to conveniently have the impurities removed. You can enjoy fresh, purified water at your fingertips – anytime. Having clean water around can be a great addition to daily life and is perfect for: Drinking Water, Brushing Teeth, Face Washing, and Makeup Removal.

The Mountain Pure® Water Filter System removes 99.9% of particles over .5 microns and is anti-microbial to reduce bacteria. This is an unprecedented amount for both drinking and face washing, making it a fantastic addition to any home. It eliminates the need for bottled water which saves a great deal of money as well as reduces the waste of the bottles that are not recycled.

Filtering your water is especially important in order to remove lead. Household Lead in drinking water accounts for 10-20% of human exposure. Major sources of lead in your drinking water can be found in your home’s plumbing system. Lead can leach into your water from pipes, solder, and faucets. Homes built prior to 1986 may have 20% or more lead in their plumbing system. Lead can be found in newer homes as well. Until June 2014, the legal limit for “lead-free” pipes was up to 8%.
