Protecting Your Family’s Health with the Kinetico 4040s and K5 Drinking Water Station

As a responsible homeowner, ensuring that your home’s water supply is safe for you and your family is a top priority. One of the biggest concerns today is the presence of PFAS in water sources across the country, including in cities and towns right here in Washington. PFAS are a group of man-made chemicals resistant to heat, water, and oil, and have been linked to a wide range of health problems.

Water in a home can be divided into three main categories: raw water (what comes untreated into your home), working water (what we use to wash clothes and dishes, shower, and cook), and drinking water (the water that we consume). Filters containing activated carbon or reverse osmosis are the most effective at removing PFAS, and several of the Kinetico systems we offer incorporate these technologies.

The Kinetico 4040s utilizes a multi-stage filtration process that includes an activated carbon component, particularly effective at removing PFAS. Installed at the point where your water enters your home, it treats the working water — removing PFAS from the water you use for cooking, bathing, and cleaning, providing whole-home protection.

The Kinetico K5 Drinking Water Station is specifically designed to provide clean and safe drinking water. The K5 utilizes reverse osmosis technology and features a multi-stage filtration process including a reverse osmosis membrane, activated carbon filters, and a sediment filter, capable of removing up to 99% of contaminants from your drinking water, including PFAS.

By addressing both the working water and drinking water in your home, you can ensure that you and your family are drinking and using water that is safe and free from harmful contaminants. Generally the 4040s is meant for customers on city water; if you have well water or a community well, we can also provide carbon filtering, though the system may differ.
