Lead is a worrisome toxin. Lead in drinking water can cause a number of negative health effects, especially in children, pregnant women and babies. Among other things, exposure to high doses of lead can result in learning disabilities, hearing problems, slight deficits in attention span, and even delays in physical and mental developments. A lifetime of exposure to lead at levels above the MCL (maximum contaminant level) could potentially cause kidney disease, stroke and even cancer.

Do recognize, however, that scare tactics used by some to sell lead removal/reduction systems is not good for our society and not something that we practice. Please note that we are cautioning you about lead removal, in general, as well as the use of these two filters in particular. We just don't feel comfortable stating that if you install either of these water reduction filters that your water quality will improve. For all we know, your water could be perfectly safe before you consider purchasing a lead removal water filter.

Since we do not, and cannot, know your specific water conditions and the type of water pipes that you have (we hope you don't have any lead water pipes or supplies), we do not feel comfortable even hinting or suggesting that any of the water filters that we offer can help improve your water quality.

It is best to have your water tested by a quality-oriented laboratory rather than assuming that you have high or low amounts of lead in your water. You cannot determine by taste or by looking at your water if your water is lead free.

The majority of water providers provide safe water. Because of this, purchasing expensive lead removal water filters might be a waste of money for you. Generally the greatest concerns/causes for lead entering your water drinking supply is through corrosion of old plumbing materials, old lead-based solder or even old lead pipes. You have many options available to you to reduce lead in your water. First though, we suggest that you find out (by local laboratory tests) if you really do have high levels of lead in your water.
