Some years ago, while selling another company's product, I realized I could design a whole house water filter that was more effective, cost you less, and cost less to maintain. So I did.
I put all of my knowledge about water quality and all of my experience in water treatment into the design. I believe that the Urban Defender™ is the best whole house water filter available today, equal to products that cost three times the price and far superior to many of my competitor's products that deprive you of effective treatment in order to appeal to you on price.
To learn about these features click here, or request my specifications here. The Urban Defender is custom built and I can modify each unit to match the chemicals in your water and the needs of your household. Hundreds of people now enjoy healthy water using the Urban Defender water filter. If I could make it even better, I would... Each year I take time out to research how I can improve the filter system and while I have made minor adjustments I am extremely pleased with the construction and effectiveness of the filter system components. I describe below why I think it is the best whole house water filter for your family.
I have also designed a less expensive system for smaller homes. Sweetwater's Terminator is designed for homes with one or two people and low water use. See below.
The Urban Defender will remove the chlorine or chloramine and the carcinogenic chemicals, including the hard to remove trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids (look for those in your water report) in municipal water supplies.
The Urban Defender removes or reduces: volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds such as chloramine, chlorine, alachlor, atrazine, trihalomethanes, haloacetic acids, solvents such as benzene and MTBE, soluble metallic and non-metallic ions including but not limited to arsenic, cobalt, antimony, copper, mercury, cadmium, chromium, lead, chloroform, hydrogen sulfide, lindane, malethion and other pesticides, silver, and trichlorethane. If you have significant levels of any of these metals then I will recommend the addition of a reverse osmosis system at the kitchen sink because we want to be able to maintain high flow rates with the Urban Defender and that limits its effectiveness at removing metals.
If your water contains chloramines, a toxic combination of chlorine and ammonia now in use by many cities, then you need the catalytic carbon version. If your city uses chlorine then the GAC version will work just fine. If you have want to be able to use more than two showers at any one time then you need to use the Super Size version which has a higher flow rate.
The Urban Defender media is tailored to your water, the features, such as downflow filtration and the amount of carbon I use, make it effective at removing contaminants, and the quality of its components are the best in the industry. Mostly though I can honestly say that it is the best and most effective because I look at your water report as we talk and I build the system that will serve the needs of your family.
