Water Filter Testing: How Water Filters and Jugs Are Tested or Certified

Tap water, while pure enough to drink, contains a range of contaminants, from total dissolved solids (TDS) to forever chemicals and metals. Small doses of these are fine for our health. However, consistent exposure to them can prove a risk. This is why water filter testing is essential—it allows the industry and customers to know what and how much is being removed from the water.

Water filter jugs are designed to ensure you drink clean, healthy, and chemical-free water suitable for human or pet consumption. They go through rigorous testing to be certified to remove certain compounds, such as aluminium, calcium, and other elements, which might have seeped into your local water supply and drinking water.

With years of extensive industry experience, Culligan ZeroWater jugs and water filters have been developed to ensure you’re getting cleaner, safer water. All of our jugs have been put through the relevant tests, meaning you can be confident that every sip you take from your filtered water is clean and pure.

Why Get Our Water Filter Jugs Tested?

Our products go through water filter testing on a regular basis by third parties.

Why? Because it means we can claim Culligan ZeroWater's water filters reduce almost 100% of all dissolved solids from your tap water. Regular testing ensures the products we produce are the best they can be and allows us to confidently assure you, our customer base, how pure our filters make your tap water.

Here are some reasons why we surpass even Brita-Maxtra with our signature water filters and jugs:

• Our water filter jugs reduce almost 100% of all dissolved solids. This is higher than Brita-Maxtra in the UK, which has an average reduction rate of around 49.6%.
• Our filter jugs effectively reduce fluoride, chlorine, and other harmful elements and chemicals in tap water.
• Culligan ZeroWater jugs are certified for chromium and lead reduction in your drinking water.

These mean you get an affordable water filter and jug that delivers clean and healthy drinking water when you are on the move or at home.

The Essentials of Water Filter Testing and Certification

Do you know that over 90% of home and business owners have little to no knowledge of water filter testing?

Moreover, most families, on average, consume the recommended daily water consumption of two litres or eight glasses of water per day. This comes to around 3,000 litres per year of domestic water consumption for one adult.

With this in mind, Culligan ZeroWater aims to give people instant access to cleaner, safer, and better-tasting water. To achieve this, our filter products are tested and certified to the highest environmental rules and regulations.

We use reputed labs to test our filters and jugs for contaminant reduction. This way, we can keep protecting all our new and existing customers' families by providing an affordable and sustainable source of fresh and healthy drinking water.

Culligan ZeroWater is genuinely committed to your health and that of your loved ones, which is why we have worked hard to ensure that our extensive line of portable water filter bottles, 7 Cup Jugs, 10 Cup Jugs, and 23 Cup Dispensers have passed stringent testing requirements and criteria.

The Criteria That Our Products Have Passed

The water filter testing that all our products have been through is strict and precise. The criteria met include, but are not limited to, the following:

• They abide by all of the environmental health department's guidelines and regulations.
• They remove many total dissolved solids which might be harmful to you.
• They reduce various metals from your drinking water, including common metals such as copper, lead, and zinc.

Thanks to our testing process, we can say with certainty that our five-stage water jug filtration systems remove almost 100% of all dissolved solids from your tap water. This prevents things such as nitrate-nitrite, arsenic, and many other volatile organic chemicals and pesticides from gaining a foothold within your UK home or business drinking water.

Our jugs come with a free TDS meter to enable you to measure the effectiveness of your new water filter jug so that you know when to replace the filter to maintain drinking clean water.

What Should You Look For In Any Water Filter Or Jug?

When shopping online for the right water filter jug, there are several things to keep in mind:

• Perform adequate product research and ask plenty of questions.
• Understand their filtration performance. The product should have been through water filter testing so they will be able to detail what contaminants are removed and the rates.
• Certifications gained by the product will also demonstrate this.
• Find out the filter type. Different filter types focus on eliminating different types of contaminants, so use this to work out which one would be better for your local tap water.
• Capacity. Make sure you know how much water the filter jug will hold so you know it will be enough for you and your family.
• Ease of use. Research how to change the filter to make sure it is a process you will be able to do to maintain clean drinking water.
