According to the U.S. EPA, bottled water is not always safer than tap water. Learn more about how you can protect yourself from harmful water contaminants through reverse osmosis water filtration.

1. BOTTLED OR TAP?
The Institute of Medicine's Food and Nutrition Board recommends
that women drink 91oz & men drink 125oz of water daily
WHERE DOESYOUR WATER
COME FROM?

2. IF IT’S BOTTLED,
YOU PROBABLY DON’T
KNOW.

3. MYTH: BOTTLED WATER IS SAFER
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
BOTTLED WATER IS NOT NECESSARILY SAFER THAN TAP WATER.
In fact, industry reports show that up to 44% of BOTTLED WATER, including two of the most popular
brands Aquafina and Dasani, IS JUST TAP WATER -- filtered in some cases, but not necessarily in all cases.
The advantage of TAP water -- whether you filter it or not -- is INFORMATION.
BOTTLED WATER manufacturers are NOT REQUIRED to publish their WATER QUALITY tests.
The FDA regulates bottled water as a food - it requires identification of the source, regulates ALLOWABLE levels
of CHEMICAL, PHYSICAL, MICROBIAL and RADIOLOGICAL CONTAMINANTS and labeling.
The FDA does NOT have the ability to oversee a mandatory testing program like the EPA does with public water suppliers.
There is no guarantee that the bottle of water you buy is safe.

4. According to the American Water Works Association, in 2012, the average cost of
Some 16.9-ounce bottles cost as much as $7.50/gallon.
Double the cost of a gallon of gas.
If you were to refill a 16.9-ounce bottle with city tap water
every day for a year, you'd pay $.48.
Let me repeat that: That's 48 cents for the entire year!
FACT: BOTTLED WATER IS
EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE
$1.45/gallon $0.004/gallon

6. WHAT IS IN MY UNFILTERED
TAP WATER ANYWAY?

7. MORE BADTHAN GOODChemicals from industrial waste or from spraying crops often enter the water stream.
Microorganisms like bacteria and parasites get in the water runoff from human or animal fecal matter.

8. THE EFFECTS ARETERRIFYING
Water can be contaminated in several ways and the way it affects your health
depends on the type of contaminants:
CRYPTOSPORIDIUM is a pathogen that can cause a fatal GASTROINTESTINAL DISEASE.
Nitrates in FERTILIZERS pose an immediate THREAT TO INFANTS, preventing blood from transporting oxygen.
LEAD and MERCURY cause physical and mental developmental problems in infants and children.Adults who have been
drinking lead-tainted water can experience KIDNEY PROBLEMS & HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE.
Since 2004, more than 62 million Americans have been exposed to drinking water that
DID NOT MEET GOVERNMENT HEALTH GUIDELINES INTENDED TO HELP
PROTECT PEOPLE FROM CANCER OR SERIOUS DISEASE.*
Government scientists now generally agree, that many chemicals commonly found in
drinking water pose serious risks even at low concentrations.
Published studies and reports by Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, Environmental Health Perspectives,American
Journal of Public Health,Archives of Environmental and Occupational Health, National Academy of Sciences suggest
millions of Americans become sick each year from drinking contaminated
water, with maladies ranging from upset stomachs to cancer and birth defects.

The permeate pump upgrade reduces water waste by up to 80%, increases water production by up to 50%,
allows the storage tank to fill fuller, and produces slightly cleaner water by preventing "TDS creep." It is
a non-electric pump that harnesses the movement of the waste water for power.
