Just bought this for my home for $25 more refurnished/open box! Very cool wii-connected water filter that tells you the flow rate and will alert you when you have a water flow drop (as well as bug you about replacing the filter).

Side note/question - Do you use a uv light on your hvac system? I've read so many conflicting articles on whether it really is worth it or not. It would be used in FL it it matters.
Did not know it was used in water systems

It doesn't matter where you are located.

If you want cleaner air, you need a Aprilaire or Air Bear air filter.

Different UV filters actually work slightly differently. All help iaq by adding a positive and negative changes to the air. This supposedly helps dust and dander clump together. Then your intake filter grabs the dust.

Reme Halo devices somehow is supposed to remove hydrogen peroxide from your air. There are generally two negatives with UV light devices. First, most emit some ozone as part of ion generation. (Reme just released the Halo Zero which has undetectable levels of ozone.) The only other way it would be negative is if your air quality is poor. Your HVAC manufacturer, ASHRAE and ACCA have guidelines for airflow to be around 200-300 cfm.

You can measure your IAQ in a number of ways but the most intriguing to me is wearable tech like TZOA, especially if you commute to work. Car cabin air filtration, office air filtration, etc. I once had a coworker who complained he smelled mold, we all laughed at him because he liked to be annoying in general and we thought this was just another way he found to be annoying. Well, he was right. He was directly under the main air duct which had a ton of mold in it according to the building superintendent.

Measuring IAQ will tell you specifically what your air quality issues are. Modern houses with zip system are sealed tight so if you don't have an outdoor air exchange system, you might just be recirculating unclean air.

Anyway, I'm by no means an expert, just someone highly allergic to dust mites.

Respectfully, This is a clueless question. Nano-hydroxyapatite is a revolutionary substance in dentistry due to its characteristics. It has the ability to bind chemically to bone, and fill in damaged enamel more finely and efficiently than fluoride which requires calcium to bind. Most orthodontist are very familiar with nano-HA in restorative and preventative care. It is widely used in oral surgery.

Whereas fluoride is known to cause dental fluorosis (weakness of the bone!), nano-HA promotes bone growth.

Noteworthy, only in 2006 did United States National Academy of Science provide a review of fluoride, and only in 2011 did Health and Human Services set a standard "to balance the benefit of preventing tooth decay while limiting any unwanted health effects".

I appreciate your ability to find deals on here. But trolling people who consciously avoid carcinogenic toxins is not something I appreciate. Hopefully others found this educational.

Thats a great dental conspiracy you got going on there. You should write a 15 page research paper on it. I am sure the instructor teaching the dental course would fail you.

Seeing how I have basic understanding on how FDA drugs get approved. I can say for sure you are completely wrong as there is no side effects or there would have been a huge investigation.
btw
Grand Rapids, Michigan became the first US city to fluoridate its public water supply in 1945.

Quote from CleverDirt2575 :
Highly depends on where you live and how much water you use. Generally, the crap cities have in their water vs rural folks is different. The second and large particulates are less of a problem in cities but you get more of the small and vice versa in the rural areas. This is just a carbon filter, mostly for the large stuff... Meaning dissolved solids will pass through it
Are you kidding me? There's so many studies about farming chemicals in ppls water - particularly since a lot of subdivisions in rural areas are built on former farmlands. YIKES!
