The Best Just Got Better!Sunday, March 29, 2015 - by Water2Drink![]() This week, Multipure International announced an important enhancement
to the Aquaversa (MP750) and Aquadome (MPAD) Drinking Water Systems. These two
models are now certified under NSF’s new Standard 401, “Emerging
Compounds/Incidental Contaminants,” to greatly reduce emerging contaminants
that are occurring in water sources today. These compounds include #pharmaceuticals
such as pain relievers and blood pressure medicine, hormones, herbicides and
pesticides, and other chemicals used as flame retardants and detergents.
The newly certified Aquaversa and Aquadome have been proven
effective in reducing the levels of the following 15 contaminants covered under Standard 401:
Atenolol Bisphenol
A
Carbamazepine Estrone
DEET Ibuprofen
Linuron Naproxen
Meprobamate Nonyl phenol
Metolachlor Phenytoin
TCEP Trimethoprim
TCPP
NSF International
surveyed more than 1,000 American consumers, and those surveyed indicated that
of the emerging contaminants, #pesticides and herbicides were of greatest
concern, followed by prescription drugs, detergents, flame retardants, and OTC
medicines. According to the survey, these
emerging contaminants were ranked by consumers as being of significant concern
to their health. #Standard401 addresses all of these contaminants, and now the
Aquaversa and the Aquadome are NSF-certified to reduce them.
