“Nearly two years ago, the state decided to save money by switching Flint's water supply from Lake Huron (which they were paying the city of Detroit for), to the Flint River, a notorious tributary that runs through town known to locals for its filth.” Sara Ganim and Ling Tran, CNN With the temporary solution, a devastating State of Emergency has been called for Flint, Michigan. The water from Flint River is 19 times more corrosive than Lake Huron. Water from Flint River is flowing through the lead pipes and the water is stripping the lead and leaching into the water supply.
Clean and safe is what Clearly Filtered stands behind. With Clearly Filtered premium filter technology, the filters can remove up to 99.3% of lead (and hundreds of other contaminants) from municipal tap water. The life of the pitcher filter is rated to last 100 gallons, compared to other industry standards that is 2.5 times the amount of filter life. Along with the pitcher filter, Clearly Filtered water bottles allow for clean water on the go. The water bottle filters target lead, along with other contaminants, and will last 25 gallons.
Clearly Filtered is working hard to make sure citizens of Flint will have access to clean and safe water.
