New Year New You With Zero Water Purification
Living in London, I have been increasingly aware of its hard water I use, and I have recently been getting into clean drinking. A keen water drinker, I had bought a Brita filter to try to balance out the harsh mineral content of Thames water.
Then I was introduced to ZeroWater. It’s filter has a 5 layer filtration system that completely obliterates anything in the water, leaving zero trace. The jug comes with a TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) meter that helps prove this, when dunked in the water (it’s also quite addictive comparing to other waters). And from £24.99, the price isn’t bad either.
According to their site: “ZeroWater's first layer of filtration, activated carbon and oxidation reduction alloy, removes the chlorine taste you are accustomed to with tap water. The Ion Exchange stage removes virtually all dissolved solids that may be left over from public water systems or even leached into your water from piping, such as aluminium, lead, zinc, nitrates, and more. Three additional stages are included to remove other contaminants and ensure your water receives the appropriate amount of treatment time to deliver water that has virtually zero dissolved solids.”
The FDA in America requires the TDS level in PURIFIED bottled water to reach 000-010ppm. ZeroWater is the only filter in its class to achieve this level.
I was shocked to discover my tap water is a whopping 341 on the meter, meaning I have an exceptionally high level of contaminants. Tap water can contain chlorine, mercury, lead and even asbestos.

I of course dipped the meter into my Brita filtered water which had filtrated the water to just 244, but I was surprised that the cheap bottled Kirkland water from Costco was actually only 154. Bottled water will not be completely low on the scale because it will still contain minerals (just not the harsh metals).
Phillip Schofield even did a great review on How to Spend it Well at Christmas:
And you can definitely taste the difference and I feel better not wasting plastic. I have the 2.3L jug which is a good size, albeit heavy with the filter, but it has a handy pourer on the back.
I used to wash my hair in Brita filtered water, and have been using ZeroWater instead and my hair doesn’t need washing as much anymore. In fact my hair feels much healthier and less problematic. I still need to get into the habit of washing my face with it too, as I suffer from dermatitis. I do use the water for my Sarah Chapman Pro Hydro-Mist Steamer though.
I can now say I am a full ZeroWater addict, and unless I move from Thames water to Severn Trent water (yes I’ve been researching!) I will be completely dedicated to making ZeroWater part of my routine, from head to toe.
