The 10-part PBS series includes a visit to nearby Flint to emphasize the importance of safe drinking water and the fact that it’s not always a given.
Drinking water quality and safety has become top of mind for many since the water crisis in Flint, Michigan, fell under a national spotlight. The 10-part PBS series includes a visit to nearby Flint to emphasize the importance of safe drinking water and the fact that it’s not always a given.
Homeowners, Frank and Tamiko Polk installed the Aquasana RHINO 600,000 Gallons Whole Home Filtration System with Salt-Free Water Conditioner and UV Filter to provide filtered water from every tap and shower, ward against viruses and bacteria and improve indoor air quality. Additionally, the Claryum 3-Stage Under Sink Filter was installed in the kitchen to ensure removal of the highest number of contaminants from the Polks’ drinking water for the lowest price per gallon and ease of use.
“One of our main charges at Aquasana is to help educate families on the importance of knowing exactly what’s in your drinking water, so we were thrilled to a part of the ‘This Old House’ Detroit project,” said Todd Bartee, CEO at Aquasana. “As we’ve witnessed from the devastation in Flint and other cities across the country, testing the water in your own home and using a high-quality NSF-certified filter is the best way to guarantee the water coming out of your tap is safe and healthy.”
Aquasana offers systems that remove the highest number of contaminants for the lowest price per gallon on the market, and its best-in-class water filters provide easy access to clean and healthy water. The company’s drinking water systems are NSF-certified to remove over 99 percent of lead as well as 67 other contaminants—15 times the number of contaminants removed by the leading pitcher brand— including asbestos, pharmaceuticals, chloramines, herbicides, pesticides, industrial solvents, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and mercury. Aquasana recently became the first and only water filter maker to receive NSF certification for the removal of PFOA and PFOS, a component in non-stick cookware.
