Zero Water claims their filters reduce chloramine by up to 99.9%. That’s not marketing fluff—it’s backed by NSF/ANSI Standard 42 and 53 testing. Trust, but verify.
If you’re a total skeptic (hi, I see you), you can buy a chloramine test kit online. Test your tap water, then test the filtered water. The difference will make you feel like a mad scientist with a satisfying result. Just don’t drink the test chemicals. That’s not the move.
What about taste?
Oh, the taste. Zero Water filtered water tastes like… nothing. It’s aggressively neutral. If you’re used to chloramine-tasting water, this will be a shock. Your brain might go, “Wait, is this safe?” Yes, it’s safe. It’s just blank.
Some people find it too flat, but you can add electrolytes or a squeeze of lemon. Or just embrace the void. For cocktail lovers, this water is a godsend—no weird flavors messing with your gin.
