Five benefits of better water from Elua.

Your Health

One of the best ways to improve your health is to drink more water. We also know that we are what we drink. Bottled water helps us drink more water while avoiding chemicals like chlorine but it also increases our day to day exposure to plastics. The quality and origin of bottled water has at times been suspect and perhaps not as pure as claimed. Tap water is adequate but can be made better by removing contaminants through filtration.

  • Know someone that needs help kicking their bottled water habit?
  • Want to drink more tap water but concerned about chlorine, voc's and lead?

From personal water filters for camping, hiking and international travel or an under the sink water filter for your home or office, we've got you covered. We can help you transform your tap water and make it better than bottled water, treating it to rigorous NSF standards.

14.4

Antimony levels in PET (SPI Code 1) bottled water after just 7 days in storage at 80°C. The USEPA maximum contaminant level is 6 μg/L (ppb).

BPA

Most 18.9 L (5 gal) water jugs are made of polycarbonate (SPI Code 7), which leaches BPA, especially when stored at warm temperatures.

1986

Many household plumbing systems built before 1986 contain lead pipes, lead solder or lead fittings. PVC pipes often contain lead that can leach into your drinking water.

Our Environment

From the creation of the plastic bottle itself to the transportation of the finished product to stores, offices and homes, bottled water has a significant and well documented impact on our environment. The amount of natural resources consumed, and the pollution created by the production and transport of bottled water is out of balance with its benefits.

Say no to bottled water and yes to reusable water bottles. Don't like the taste of tap water? Get a home water filtration system like the Everpure H-300 or a personal water filter like the GRAYL Water Filtration Cup. Is your current reusable water bottle leaving your water tasting like plastic or yesterday's drink mix? Switch to a BPA free reusable glass water bottle like this one from Glasstic or give your current bottle a good cleaning with these all-natural water bottle cleaning tablets from Bottle Bright.

Technology

We offer home water filtration systems with some of the best technology available on the market today. Compact, multi-stage systems from industry leaders like Pentair Evererpure allow you to take back your tap and create premium drinking water equal to, if not better than most brands of bottled water.

Activated carbon provides a proven capacity to remove a wide spectrum of chemical contaminants while microfiltration and/or ultrafiltration removes fine particulate and protozoan cysts like Giardia and Cryptosporidium. And unlike reverse osmosis, the water filtration systems that we offer do not remove healthy minerals, waste water or require electricity to operate.

Let us help you create your very own bottled water - chlorine free, plastic free and hassle free.

Save Money

Not sure what you are spending on bottled water? You might want to grab your calculator. We've talked to many families who were shocked to find out they were spending close to a $1,000 per year or more.

In the workplace, the savings can be almost $450 per water cooler per year, not counting lost time from changing water bottles, missing bottles and lost bottle deposits, equipment rental fees and water cooler cleaning fees.
