When I was first looking for a water filtration system that would provide the best overall water filtration, I developed a 22 point criteria to compare systems against. I knew that if I could find a system that satisfied these 22 points, or at least came close, that I could recommend the system with confidence. After considerable research, I was unable to find any existing solutions that could adequately address all of these important criteria, leading me to develop of the Opus line of healthy water systems which meet all the standards:
1. Produces great tasting water.
2. Removal of chlorine and chloramine.
3. Removal of fluoride.
4. Removal of arsenic.
5. Removal of manganese.
6. Removal of heavy metals, contaminants, lead, cysts, THMs, nitrites, etc.
7. Retaining or adding minerals, including calcium, magnesium and potassium.
8. Maintain existing pH level, no increased acidity.
9. Customization based on filtration of specific chemicals or contaminants, i.e. removal of fluoride filtration for unfluoridated water, adding germicidal UV-C or Doulton filters to kill or filter micro-organisms, etc.
10. Environmentally friendly, no water waste, or high electrical costs.
11. Reasonable purchase price and low cost per gallon.
12. Easy installation, maintenance, and filter changes.
13. Low cost of operating with inexpensive and widely available non proprietary filter replacements.
14. Everything is included for installation, including all fittings, lead free faucet, tubing, etc., with no hidden extra charges.
15. Ability to upgrade to newer technologies or to more advanced models.
16. No risk of fungal, bacterial or viral contamination from RO membrane or holding tank.
17. No risk of nickel, Bisphenol-A, phthalates or other contamination through contact with plastics or stainless steel.
18. No bulky pressurized holding tank.
19. No risk of adverse health effects caused by drinking de-mineralized water.
20. Water is “on demand,” with no waiting for a holding tank to fill. Water can be dispensed continuously.
21. Systems and supplies are available through normal retail outlets, and not sold by “independent distributors,” through multi-level or network marketing, which significantly increase the price.
22. Minimum 5 Year Warranty.
