Is there lead in your water?
Several customers have contacted us after receiving letters from their city water provider warning them about possible lead contamination in their drinking water. The presence of lead and other harmful substances like PFOA, PFOS, chlorine, and chloramine in your home’s water can be extremely harmful to your health.
If you’re concerned about the quality of your drinking water, you can take steps to remove these contaminants. Let us show you how to ensure that your drinking water is safe for you and your family.
The health effects of lead on adults and children are significant and irreversible. Champion Plumbing partners with Water Control Corporation to offer PIONEER™ the first-of-its-kind whole-house Lead, Cyst, and PFOA/PFOS removal system.
How to remove lead from your water
Not only does PIONEER™ remove heavy metals like lead, it also eliminates chlorine, chloramine, and other harmful contaminants from your water.
PIONEER™ is specifically designed at a 0.5-micron nominal filtration level to remove both particulate and soluble lead from your drinking water. Soluble lead is invisible, odorless, tasteless, and needs to be chemically removed from water. Particulate lead is like a tiny grain of sand that needs to be physically removed from water. The PIONEER™ POE filter is strategically designed to remove BOTH forms of lead contamination from the whole house in a single filter.
From Water Control Corporation’s (WCC) website:
PIONEER™ Systems
Lead and PFAS/PFOS can be found in drinking water all across North America. Lead poisoning is proven to cause developmental and a myriad of other health issues, particularly in children. PFAS/PFOS (often called “forever chemicals”) are believed to cause cancer, even when present in very trace amounts. These substances represent a very real health threat and should be removed from drinking water, particularly when any state and federal Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCL’s) are exceeded. WCC (Water Control Corporation) is proud to partner with Enpress LLC, an innovative American water treatment manufacturer, to offer the PIONEER™ system. Put simply, the PIONEER™ is the best product on the market when it comes to the removal of lead and PFAS/PFOS.
