Protect Your Family: Recommended Water Quality Products

Independent picks for reducing PFAS, lead, and other contaminants in your drinking water: reverse-osmosis systems, certified pitcher and faucet filters, whole-house systems, and at-home test kits. We only recommend products with third-party certification (NSF/ANSI 53, 58, or 401) for the contaminants they claim to remove.

How We Choose

We match filter technology to the contaminant. Reverse osmosis and activated-carbon blocks are the two technologies independently shown to reduce PFAS; standard pitcher filters certified only for taste and chlorine do not remove PFAS or lead.

Check your own water first: enter your ZIP code on the KnowYourExposure homepage to see which contaminants your utility has reported, then pick a product certified for those specific contaminants.
