Private well owners are responsible for the safety of their water. The Environmental Protection Agency does not regulate or enforce legal limits of contaminants found in private wells. It is up to the well owner to test and treat for these contaminants to ensure the safety and wellbeing of those using water from that source. Along with the common complaints amongst private well owners regarding the taste, smell, and appearance of their well water, that water could also contain levels of contaminants such as radioactive substances, metals or fluoride, agricultural chemicals, fertilizers, pesticides, and the list goes on.

The HANS™ Premium Water Appliance purifies your water ….
In addition to purifying your water to better-than-bottled-water quality from every tap in your home, a HANS™ unit will render your water softener useless without the hassle, cost, and negative environmental impact of salt, which leads to brine discharge back into your septic system, discharged underground into a drywell, or piped out of the building to the ground surface.
