Find out which chemicals and contaminants are removed when you use a PiMag Waterfall Filter to filter your tap water.
With an increase in publications that suggest our water supply is contaminated with various metals, pesticides, herbicides, insecticides and fungicides we (Nikken) have completed tests that show reductions in a large number of these contaminants.
The process conducted in our laboratory is to deliberately contaminate the tap water with a high level of each contaminant and to then take a reading for each one after filtration.
Nikken has no information on water quality in your area. The substances removed or reduced by this device are not necessarily in your water.
- CHLORINE
HEAVY METALS
The metals below are regularly tested for by water companies and filtered through their systems to make sure that they do not exceed the regulation PCV (Prescribed Concentration or Value). The PiMag Waterfall Filter showed the following reductions versus UK tap water:-
- ALUMINIUM
- LEAD
- CHROMIUM
- CADMIUM
- MERCURY
- COPPER
- IRON
- ARSENIC
- NICKEL
CONTAMINANTS
Nikken has tested 91 various contaminants and the consolidated results are shown here. These percentages indicate the maximum level of reduction for each category:
- Organochlorine (insecticides) – 24 Substances Tested
- Organophosorus (pesticides) – 13 Substances Tested
- Urons – 13 Substances Tested
- Triazines (herbicides) – 7 Substances Tested
- Acidics – 18 Substances Tested
- Metaldehyde (pesticide)
- Trihalomethanes (THM’s) / Solvents – 4 Substances Tested
- Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) – 8 Substances Tested
- Chlormequat (plant growth regulator)
- Glyphosate (herbicide)
- Phosphorus
CONCLUSION
These contaminants are not necessarily in your tap water, but where any contaminant residual is present in a treated water supply, the PiMag ® Waterfall product test shows that it is effective in significantly reducing the level of contamination.
