The Facts About Water Filtration

Why Filter Water?

• 80 percent of our water intake comes from the water we drink.1 The better water tastes, the easier it is to drink the recommended daily amount.
• The 3M™ Full Flow Drinking Water System reduces chlorine taste and odor, sediment, lead and cysts.
• Lead plumbing is common in homes built before 1986, and can contribute to contamination of the home’s water. Because the contaminant can be present in people’s homes and not the water supply itself, lead content may not be accurately represented in water quality reports.2
• Contaminant levels can vary depending on the season or the weather.3 Filtering is important to ensure consistent water quality.
• The President’s Cancer Panel has recommended that people use home water filtering devices to help decrease exposure to cancer-causing agents.4

 

3M Water Filtration Systems Are Good For Your Wallet
Direct savings…
• The 3M™ Full Flow Drinking Water System replaces 45,443 16.9 oz. bottles of water, 150 pitcher filters and 60 end-of-faucet filters.5
• The average 16.9 oz. bottle of water costs between $1 and $2. That’s between 240 and 10,000 times more than the cost of tap or filtered water.9
Indirect savings…
• Sediment and minerals found in some water can damage pipes and appliances, shortening the duration of their use. Additionally, build-up within pipes can decrease water pressure. The 3M™ Scale Inhibition Treatment System reduces scale to help protect your plumbing and to help extend the use of hot water-using appliances.

 

3M Water Filtration Systems Contribute to a More Sustainable Lifestyle
• 50 billion plastic water bottles are purchased in the United States annually, and only about 1 in 4 of those 50 billion is recycled. That leaves about 2 million tons of bottles heading to landfills every year.10 One 3M™ Full Flow Drinking Water System replaces 45,443 16.9 oz. bottles of water every year .

o 3M knows that sustainability is critical to being successful in this industry, and continues to work towards developing products that will be recyclable.
