Water Purification Joplin, MO
We Know and Fix Joplin’s Drinking Water Problems
Legal does not necessarily equal safe. Getting a passing grade from the federal government does not mean the water meets the latest health guidelines.
According to the Enviromental Working Group, Joplin’s public drinking water contains over 25 total contaminates and 12 of those identified contaminates exceed the EWG Heath Guidlines.
Legal limits for contaminants in tap water have not been updated in almost 20 years.
The best way to ensure clean tap water is to take matters into your hands. Have your water tested and identify what contaminates are present and choose the correct water purification to provide clean, fresh and pure water for your entire family.
Legal ≠ Safe
The federal government’s legal limits are not health-protective. The EPA has not set a new tap water standard in almost 20 years, and some standards are more than 40 years old.
