Contaminant Analysis

NeurotoxinWhat is it?
Lead is a toxic heavy metal that leaches from aging pipes, solder, and fixtures. It was banned from plumbing materials in 1986, but millions of older homes and water systems still contain lead service lines.
Health Risks
Even low levels of lead in blood affect IQ, attention span, and behavior in children. In adults, lead exposure causes high blood pressure, kidney damage, and reproductive problems. There is NO safe level of lead exposure.
How to Remove It
Boiling does NOT remove lead - it actually concentrates it. You need a certified NSF/ANSI 53 filter or Reverse Osmosis system to effectively remove lead from drinking water.

ByproductWhat is it?
Total Trihalomethanes (TTHMs) are disinfection byproducts formed when chlorine reacts with organic matter in water. They indicate problems with water treatment or source water quality.
Health Risks
Long-term TTHM exposure is linked to bladder cancer, liver problems, and adverse reproductive outcomes. Pregnant women face increased risk of miscarriage and birth defects.
How to Remove It
Activated carbon filters effectively remove TTHMs and chlorine. A whole-house carbon filtration system provides protection at every tap in your home.

Your local water utility meets federal standards, but "legal" doesn't always mean "optimal." The contaminants listed above—even in trace amounts—can accumulate in your body over time.
Protect Your Long-Term Health
Heavy metals and synthetic chemicals found in tap water have been linked to long-term metabolic and immune system issues. Filtering at the source is your first line of defense.
Better Skin & Hair
Unfiltered water often contains chlorine and hardness minerals that strip natural oils from your skin and hair. Pure water can lead to softer skin, shinier hair, and a healthier glow.
Based on Randlett's water profile, these NSF-certified reverse osmosis systems are the most reliable way to remove the contaminants identified above. Choose the option that fits your home.

Frequently Asked Questions for RANDLETT
Does boiling water remove Lead?
NO. Boiling water actually concentrates lead levels as water evaporates. You must use a certified filter.
What are TTHMs and where do they come from?
TTHMs (Trihalomethanes) are byproducts created when chlorine reacts with organic matter during water treatment. They're linked to cancer.
Can I absorb Lead through my skin in the shower?
Generally no, lead is tightly regulated because ingestion is the primary risk. However, avoid swallowing shower water.
Is it safe to shower with TTHMs in my water?
