I'm so ready for this!! 🎥
But who are we kidding??
Exposing what's (really) in our drinking water isn't in the interest of big corporations
But here's the real talk 📣
Most Tap water contains:
* Disinfection byproducts (THMs) — formed when chlorine reacts with organic matter in the source water
* Lead & copper — leaching from aging pipes and service lines
* PFAS “forever chemicals” —
* Microplastics - * Pesticides
* Pharmaceutical residues — trace hormones and medications
* Nitrates —
(All linked to cancer)
& Bottled plastic water:
* Microplastics — studies have found 10s of thousands of particles per liter, even in “premium” brands
* BPA/BPS leaching — worsens with heat exposure (hot cars, sun, warehouses) which are linked to cancer & birth defects
* Often just filtered tap — many bottled brands source from municipal supply
* Minimal oversight — bottled water is tested far less frequently than tap
If you're ready to deepen your understanding about the importance of quality, drinking water, whole home and under the counter filtration, you don't need to wait for a Netflix documentary!

This is the inside of a 15 year-old Enagic machine, bought used online.(BTW: something we adamantly discourage)
The customer knew the risk going in — he just couldn’t swing a brand-new system yet, and we get that.
After he picked it up, even a deep clean from us didn’t fix it: the water still didn’t taste right. So being the hands-on type, he took the machine apart himself (please don’t try this at home) — and found this.
A tube coated in mold and mildew, built up over who-knows-how-many years of unknown maintenance history. 🦠🤢🦠
This isn’t a dig at him, in fact, he gave me permission to use this picture ☺️
It’s a warning for anyone tempted to save a few hundred dollars on a secondhand machine:
→ No warranty
→ No recourse if something’s wrong → No idea how it was actually cared for before you
→ No customer ID, which means no access to genuine parts or maintenance supplies
→ No lifetime support from True Source Waters
A used machine is a gamble with your daily water. The only way to know exactly what you’re drinking — and to actually be covered if something goes wrong — is to start with a new system.
Come talk to us at 3617B Portola Drive about getting set up the right way. 💧
