Home water filters, whether they are meant to purify some contaminant in your water, or simply to enhance the taste, are an important addition to your home. Equally important is the knowledge that once you have installed a system in your refrigerator or your whole house, replacement filters will be readily available. The best water filters are the ones that are cost-effective, easy to replace and available when needed.
Epic Water Filters have been independently certified and tested across the globe in both field and laboratory tests in multiple countries. These rigorous processes are just another way we go well beyond what's required to deliver the cleanest, purest water possible.
When we say Epic, we mean Epic. Our proprietary, multi-patented blend of filter media eliminates up to 99.99% of the harmful contaminants other filters leave behind such as chlorine, heavy metals, industrial & agricultural pollutants and trace pharmaceuticals. Why settle for anything less?
Our goal at Epic has always been environmentally minded and we find value in not only practicing environmental stewardship as a company but also in supporting others who do the same. Like many who came before us and who will surely come after us, we hope to leave the planet a little bit better than we found it (and with cleaner water too).
A carbon filter can reduce the levels of many common contaminants, such as lead and disinfection byproducts. There are many options for carbon filters, from countertop pitcher filters to faucet-mounted filters, undersink filters and whole-house filters.
For the cleanest water, replace your filter every six months. Depending on your filter, a refrigerator water filter reduces lead and up to 73 other contaminants that can be found in your ice and water.
Whirlpool® approved refrigerator water filters are certified by NSF International to reduce a range of impurities and contaminants. To determine what type of contaminants a filter is certified to reduce, look for NSF Standard numbers.
Taste and odor: If you want to improve the taste and odor of your water, look for a filter certified to NSF Standard 42. A filter that meets this standard is certified to reduce aesthetic impurities such as chlorine.
Emerging (or new) contaminants: NSF 401 covers filtration of emerging contaminants which include pharmaceuticals or chemicals not yet regulated by the EPA or Health Canada. These filters have been verified to reduce one or more of 15 emerging contaminants.
While some filters may qualify for one or two of these standards, select Whirlpool® approved filters are certified for all three. Check your filter's safety and performance data sheet for detailed information on which contaminants your filter is certified to reduce.
The United States provides some of the safest tap water in the world. Community water systems are regulated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. However, conditions can vary based on your local water source, plumbing systems, and other environmental factors which can result in the presence of contaminants in your water.
Filters can reduce a range of impurities and other contaminants to ensure quality or improve the odor and taste of tap water. Some people may choose to filter their tap water due to concerns about possible contaminants or simply because they prefer the taste. For information about possible contaminants in your local water, check the annual water quality report provided by your water utility. This report can help you decide what kind of filtration system is best for you and your family. Read this article from the CDC for more information on water quality reports.
NSF International is an independent organization that certifies filters against three contaminant categories: look and taste, health concerns, and emerging (or new) contaminants. While some filters may qualify for one or two of the categories, select Whirlpool® approved filters are certified for all three.
We recommend that you replace your filter for your Whirlpool refrigerator when the indicator light turns on, every 6 months, or as needed. Small ice cubes, low ice production, and/or longer dispensing times may be an indication that your water filter is clogged or was installed incorrectly.
Different factors can murk up your water in different ways, such as glacial sediment, silty water, leaf debris and mud stirred up by a rainstorm. Natural particles, though not a health concern, impact how easy water is to treat, how much field maintenance is required and the lifespan of filter elements.
Effective against protozoa, bacteria and viruses, you simply add them to gathered water and wait. Products are typically iodine- or chlorine-based and available in drops, pills or gadgets that mix base ingredients.
Everydrop® water filters are independently certified for look and taste, health effects and emerging contaminants. While some filters may qualify for one or two categories, everydrop® filters 1-5 meet all three.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, viruses such as rotavirus and norovirus are the smallest of all waterborne disease-causing microorganisms and can pass through filters with pore sizes of between 0.1 and 0.4.
You can also link it up to a hydration bladder such as the Platypus and suck the water directly from the bladder through the filter. Similar to the LifeStraw Go, this does require some effort because of the resistance provided by the filter.
I saw some guys using one on the O Circuit in Torres del Paine and it was great for this type of situation: the water sources in the park are largely uncontaminated by humans or chemicals, so the water just needed filtering for sediment.
The best travel water purifier for every single circumstance: However, the Grayl Geopress comes a close second in the contest for finding the best travel water filter, despite a couple of reservations I have about the product.
The downside to the Grayl Geopress is the size and weight of the bottle and filter, which may put you off, but are something you can overlook in order to be guaranteed safe drinking water wherever you are on the road.
Please consider reviewing Roving Blue portable / travel water filters. They are the very lightweight and easy to use. They have a new technology, that dissolves ozone into water. Ozone is more powerful than chlorine, yet quickly reverts to oxygen. So it is a safen and sustainable way to purify water on the go. Ozone also removes tastes and odors of water. They are not filters so they will never clog. And they are rechargeable and last for thousands of uses. You can learn more at www.rovingblue.com Thank you!
I love my Grayl! Great for foreign travel, I fill up with tap water, etc. all the time. Less worries about bottled water, as I found sometimes the hotel can be a little stingy. :) No issues pressing it, I just set it down and lean on it a bit. I don't try to hold and force it. A little heavy for backpacking, but I take it anyway. I carry a 1l. bladder and a couple of presses fills it up as well.
Sawyer is pretty compact and easy to use, but inconvenient when filtering anything more than a liter at a time. Despite how fast the water flows through the filter, continually attaching and disconnecting the filter to fill up the water bag takes forever. Additionally, unless you have a deep pool of water it's hard to really fill the 16 oz bag up all the way. When combined with the difficulty of squeezing out all the water when filtering, I can usually only get 6-10 oz of water per bag. This means that in order for me to fill up my 3 liter bladder all the way, I have to refill the water bag 20+ times.
Epic Water Filters launched in 2015 with a mission to reduce single-use plastic water bottle pollution by creating a reusable water bottle fitted with a robust, yet compact filter. To make progress on its ambitious goal, however, Epic Water Filters wanted to explore new ways to reach a wider audience. In 2016, it began offering its products on Amazon.com and experienced streamlined fulfillment and tremendous growth, expanding to a wide range of pitchers, fitted filters for popular bottle brands, and home faucet kits that are helping prevent millions of single-use plastic bottles from entering landfills.
For many small businesses like Epic Water Filters, the mission or product idea might come easily, but building customer trust, converting shoppers, and fulfilling orders can be significant challenges that come later. Amazon and Buy with Prime are helping Epic Water Filters streamline its fulfillment and convert shoppers with a seamless checkout and fast, free delivery. This has allowed Epic Water Filters to focus on its mission of developing great products that help reduce single-use plastic water bottle pollution, while creating meaningful relationships with customers and communities.

Two types of common types of cysts are Giardia lamblia and Cryptosporidium. They enter drinking water from human and animal waste, and can lead to gastrointestinal illness such as dysentery, vomiting and cramps. They are not life threatening if treated.
Sediments are naturally occurring particles that develop as earth materials. They break down through weathering and erosion. Sediment comes from sand, rocks and minerals, or may consist of organic particles of plants and microbes. They can take on a cloudy and unappealing look in water.
We recommend using a genuine Elkay filter. Our filters are designed and manufactured to work within Elkay units and provide optimum performance. To purchase filters, click here or call 800-834-4816. 781b155fdc
