\"ENPRESSThis new and innovative POE (Point-of-Entry) filtration system provides FILTRATION EVERYWHERE TECHNOLOGY\u00ae \u2013 PIONEER\u2122 provides the best filtration solution \u2013 starting at the source and giving peace-of-mind throughout the entire home. Soluble lead is invisible, odorless, tasteless, and needs to be chemically removed from water, and PIONEER\u2122 removes not only soluble, but particulate forms of lead as well<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

PIONEER\u2122 is typically installed by a licensed plumber or water treatment professional, where the water main enters the home, business or restaurant, whether that be in a basement, garage, closet, or outside. This system has been tested and third-party certified as required in the NSF\/ANSI 53 standard for the reduction of lead and cyst<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The History of Lead Usage<\/h3>\n

Until it was banned in new home construction in 1986, more than 70% of cities in the US were using lead-based products for conveying water, because it was less expensive and more durable than iron. Lead pipe could be easily bent, allowing pipes to be shaped to conform to the contours of existing buildings or other structures.<\/p>\n

How Lead Gets into Drinking Water<\/h3>\n

Lead can enter drinking water when service lines that contain lead corrode, especially where the water has high acidity or low mineral content that corrodes pipes and fixtures, most often from the pipes that carry water from the water treatment plant to water mains under the street supplying homes. Lead release is heavily influenced by the chemistry of the water delivered by the water system and by physical disturbances such as road construction or water main replacements.<\/p>\n

How Lead Affects Children and Adults<\/h3>\n

There is no safe level of lead for the human body and unlike other metals, it has no useful biological function. Even low concentrations of lead in water can cause a significant increase in blood lead levels and any damage are irreversible. Lead is a potent neurotoxin which has significant effects on childhood health and development. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, lead exposure can affect nearly every system in a child\u2019s body, inhibiting the development of both physical and mental abilities.<\/p>\n

The Solution<\/h3>\n

Soluble lead is invisible, odorless, tasteless, and needs to be chemically removed from water. Particulate lead is like a tiny grain of sand that needs to be physically removed from water. PIONEER\u2122 POE filtration system houses a strategically designed nominal 0.5-micron filter to remove BOTH (soluble and particulate) forms of lead contamination from the whole house in a single filter. The PIONEER\u2122 Binder is designed to chemically react with soluble lead to create an ionic bond, kinetically removing lead from the water and producing clean water.<\/p>\n
