Water Quality Report for Berkeley
CITY WATER FILTER INSTALLS THREE PRODUCTS FOR Berkeley WATER TREATMENT
WHOLE HOUSE CARBON FILTER, WATER SOFTENER, & 6-STAGE REVERSE OSMOSIS ALKALINE WATER FILTER.
MAIN ISSUES WITH WATER QUALITY IN BERKELEY:
1. Choramines –have been used in the treatment of your water. Chloramine are more toxic, less effective, and harder to remove than Chlorine. City Water Filter recommends the Whole House Water Filter to remove the chemicals (Chloramine) from your drinking and bath water. To Learn more: Chloramine Facts.
In Fact your water quality reports states : ” When the chloramine residual cannot be
detected, the sample is further analyzed to ensure that microbiological water quality is in compliance
with regulations.” So if they can’t detect Chloramines they make sure bacteria levels are safe.
2. Chromium– California Environmental Protection Agency had suggested the standard should be 0.02 parts per billion for Chromium(VI). Our Leaders weighed the health factors against costs of removing the Chromium(VI). The new California standard of 10 parts per billion is 500 times higher than advised by CalEPA! See your Water Quality Report, it exceeds 0.02 parts per billion. City Water Filter offers the 6-Stage Reverse Osmosis to remove the Chromium and provide Health Giving properties that also taste better than any water you can buy. This product will improve the taste of your drinking water!!
3. Fluoridation–Fluoride is a toxic endocrine disruptor. Fluoride Supplements have Never Been Approved by the FDA! The CDC and ADA Now Advise to Avoid Using Fluoride! Many City Water Filter customers have opted to install reverse osmosis systems combined with a customized Whole House Water Filtration system (added Fluoride tank) to properly remove the fluoride and chloramines from water. Fluoride can easily be absorbed through the skin and inhaled via steam during bathing. You don’t want Fluoride in your body regardless of the means the toxin enters.
- Many City Water Filter customers have opted to install Reverse Osmosis systems to properly remove the Chloramines, Fluoride, Chromium and other contaminates from drinking water. A Whole House Water Filtration System that is customized to remove sediment, chloramine, and fluoride tank is recommended to treat drinking and bathing water.
4. Bad Tasting Water– common causes of a musty, moldy, or earthy taste or odor in the water is bacteria growing in your drain, or certain types of organisms growing in the EBMUD’s source water reservoirs. A chemical smell is cause by interaction between chloramine and organic material in your plumbing system. Your water is treated with Chloramines which does not disinfect as well as chlorine.
Hard Water might be a concern because of the damage created by mineral deposits clogging your pipes and appliances.
- City Water Filter offers the Hankscraft water softener to solve this issue. When installing this whole house water softener a reverse osmosis system needs to be installed to your kitchen sink to efficiently remove the sodium. Sometimes on older homes, plumbing needs to be bypassed in order to not irrigate with softened water.
- Also, City Water Filter now offers an Eco Friendly scale prevention for the whole house without the the use of salt, chemicals, or electricity. This Water Descaler prevents hard water scale from pipes, water heaters, tubs, showers and sinks. Protects and increases life expectancy of appliances. Use less soap and detergent while delivering greater cleaning effectiveness. You get conditioned water without the slippery feel.

All Water Quality Reports read this disclaimer: “A Note for Sensitive Populations Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immunocompromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about their drinking water from their health care providers. USEPA/Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1.800.426.4791)”
