Your Tap Water Travels 125 Miles.
The Last 50 Feet Are the Problem.
NYC's water is great at the reservoir, but old mains, aging building pipes, and pre-1961 lead solder stand between it and your glass. Crystalina filters are engineered for exactly that.

Studio apartment or four-story brownstone, there's a Crystalina system built for your space.

NYC Water Is Famous. It's Also Complicated.
The city's supply is well-treated at the source, the risks come from the journey to your faucet.
The journey to your tap. NYC water travels from upstate reservoirs through a century-old network of aqueducts and mains, some laid before 1900.
Estimated lead service lines still connecting NYC buildings to the water main. If your building is pre-1961, lead solder in the plumbing is also a concern.
NYC is one of only five large U.S. cities with mostly unfiltered surface water, treated with chlorine and UV, which is why your tap can taste and smell like a pool.
The age of much of the city's water infrastructure. Water main breaks send rust, sediment, and turbidity into building lines hundreds of times each year.

What Our Neighbors Are Saying
"Our building is from 1928 and the tap always had a metallic edge. Two weeks after installing the RO-10, my TDS meter went from 42 to 6. Coffee tastes completely different."
"As a renter I couldn't touch the plumbing. The Countertop Luxe took five minutes to set up and I've stopped buying bottled water entirely. Saving about $60 a month."
"Whole Home system in our Bay Ridge brownstone. The installer was on time, tidy, and walked us through filter changes. No more rust-tinted water after main breaks."
