Amy's Opinion:

Before we moved into our Vermont home with very
clean well water, we were devout tap water and shower
filter users. I did my research. This is the only company
who gave me the independent lab summary results of
the filters. Nobody else would give these out, even
when asked. The test results showed that these filters
take out the greatest number of contaminants for the
largest volume of water. And, they're very affordable.

Why these filters are better than Multipure and Amway
(which sells the Multipure filter under the Amway name),
and others:

· They're significantly less expensive.
They are a small factory direct company, not a multi-
level marketing company like Multipure and Amway.
No pyramid structure of sales people to jack up the
cost. If you are like me, you don't want to pay more for
nothing.

Comparable Multipure unit- $599.95, replacement
filters: $71-$99 each. Amway unit-$420, replacement
filters: $120 each. These units retail for-$189 (counter-top),
$199 (under-counter), replacement cartridges-$39 each
(you need two, one gets changed yearly, the other
every two years). There are also a variety of other

add on filter options, such as: nitrate, e-coli, chloramine
(new), and sediment removal. Those three housing units are
$259 and $279.

· These filters have better performance, testing & upgrades -
as new materials and technologies become available,
they incorporate them into their units. Testing is done by
qualified, independent labs according to NSF standards.

· They come with an unconditional lifetime guarantee.

· The owner's "walk their talk". Their home and manufacturing
facility are "off-the-grid"-- all their energy comes from electricity
generated from solar and wind.
