Because Good Health Starts with Pure Water
Certainly we all want to disinfect our water – but do you want to disinfect
your family, too?
You’re probably already aware that:
•Chemicals (such as disinfection by-products, solvents, and pesticides),
radionuclides (such as radium), and minerals (such as arsenic) are contaminants
found in our drinking water that can negatively influence our health with
chronic conditions such as cancer, liver or kidney problems, or reproductive
difficulties.
•About 90% of our population drinks chlorinated water that can
contain hundreds of disinfectant by-products resulting from water treatment.
You may not be aware that:
•MTBE (methyl-t-butyl ether) released into ground and surface water can occur through leaking underground storage tanks and
pipelines, spills, emissions from marine engines into lakes and reservoirs, and
to some extent from air deposition.
•Lead, trihalomethanes, and asbestos can
occur in your drinking water after it leaves your local water treatment plant.
If You Don’t Filter Your Water:
•You should "flush" your cold-water pipes
by running the water until it becomes as cold as it will get, anytime the water
in a particular faucet has not been used for six hours or longer, especially in
older homes. The more time water has been sitting in your home's pipes, the more
lead it may contain.
•You should
only use water from the cold-water tap for drinking, cooking, and especially for
making baby formula, because hot water is likely to contain higher levels of
lead. The two actions recommended above are very important to the health of your
family. They will probably be effective in reducing lead levels because most of
the lead in household water usually comes from the plumbing in your house, not
from the local water supply.
An EPA audit suggests there are tens of thousands more cases a year than
previously documented in which water systems break safety rules. In September
1999, USA Today reported, "88% Of The Violations Go Unreported."
Many people today consider the “gold standard” to be bottled water. Here are some facts not
commonly known about bottled water:
• A typical family will spend several
hundred dollars annually for bottled water.
• Both bottled water and tap
water have to meet the same standard – the same contaminants in your tap water
may also be in your bottled water.
• 25% of all bottled water is simply
recycled tap water.
• Bottled water must be replaced with time consuming
trips to the grocery store or by expensive delivery services.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) does not establish standards or
testing protocol for consumer installed drinking water filtration or treatment
systems. Consumers seeking assistance are referred to NSF International, a
non-profit organization designated as a World Health Organization Collaborative
Center for drinking water safety and quality, which develops and administers
programs related to public health. NSF’s high standards have been adopted
internationally for consumer products and services, including drinking water
filtration systems.
The Life Plus Pure Water Machine meets NSF/WQA Standard 53 (Health Effects).
Such hazardous contaminants may be microbiological, chemical, or particulate
(including filterable cysts) in nature.
The Life Plus Pure Water Machine has
been certified as NSF/WQA Standard 42 (Aesthetic Effects) Class I compliant.
This requires that chlorine be reduced by 75% to 100% and that particulate
reduction occur at 0.5 to 1 micrometer (sub-micron).
*Life Plus Pure Water Machine is for use with potable water only
