If you're not sure if you need a water filtration device, check out our
Why Filter Your Water?
Page.
There are many water filtration devices out on the market today, and unfortunately, most do not do much more than filter for flavor and part of the chlorine.
Here at EcoViva,
we searched high and low to find the
best quality, longest lasting water filters
we could find. We decided not to offer
reverse osmosis or distilled water systems
at this time, for several reasons. Both
of these systems remove too many of the
minerals that your body needs at the
same time as removing contaminants. They
are also much slower at filtering, and
often more expensive. Distilling also
changes the nature of the water, which
many think is not good for your health
over the long term, even if you add minerals
to your diet in other ways.

The Undercounter,
Countertop and Whole house CuZn® copper-zinc
(KDF) water
filters we sell here at EcoViva are combined with large
amounts of coconut shell
carbon. This KDF combined with coconut shell carbon
makes a very
effective filtering media. They are certified
under NSF Standards 42 and 61 and approved by the U.S.
EPA for use in potable drinking
water systems. Toxins
like Chlorine, Asbestos, Lead,
and Pesticides are significantly
reduced (by up to 99.9%, depending
on the substance).
