This system has 1 health-based violation on the EPA record — involving Coliform bacteria, Lead & Copper Rule, Total Trihalomethanes (TTHM). A limit meant to protect health, exceeded.
The Revised Total Coliform Rule tracks coliform bacteria — an indicator that disease-causing organisms could be getting into the water.
Read the rule → EPA · Coliform RuleThe Lead & Copper Rule requires utilities to test water at customer taps for lead and copper — metals that enter water from pipes and plumbing, not the source. Lead harms brain development in children; no level is considered safe.

NSF-58 certified under-sink RO — the only tech that broadly removes dissolved contaminants at the tap.
NSF-42 whole-house carbon cuts chlorine, chloramine and the pool-water taste.
