Why is purified bottled water better than tap
water?
Bottled water does not contain chlorine, lead
or organic contaminants. Additionally, bottled water is subjected
to testing through the International Bottled Water Association
(IBWA). Also, bottled water is considered a food product by
the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and in many states,
must meet separate and higher quality standards than tap water.
clearly colorado water is filtered and sanitized, which removes
all odors or foul taste. Tap water, on the other hand, can
have high levels of substances such as copper, radon, chlorine
and lead. It is often only tested at the processing facility
and many contaminants can come from the pipes that deliver
the water to your home. Furthermore, most municipal water
supplies contain chlorine, which is added to kill bacteria.
Chlorine not only tastes and smells bad, but can produce trihalomethanes
(THMs), which have been found to be carcinogenic.
What is the proper way to store bottled water?
Bottled water should be stored in a room-temperature,
dry environment away from chemicals such as household cleaning
products and away from solvents such as gasoline, paint thinners
and other toxic materials.
How long will it stay fresh?
We guarantee our water will be good for one
year from the date of bottling.
Who certifies your water?
We're proud to say that all our water is certified
by the Colorado State Health Department to be a true natural
spring water. The Colorado State Health Department follows
the FDA & IBWA guidelines (http://www.bottledwater.org).
These rigorous certifications set our water apart, so they're
important to us.
How is the bottled water industry regulated?
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the
International Bottled Water Association (IBWA) set standards
and audits for water safety, purity, and quality. Members
of the IBWA must meet strict industry standards established
by the association.These standards, contained in the IBWA
"Model Code," exceed the FDA regulations currently
in place for bottled water.
How far will clearly colorado deliver?
clearly colorado delivers from the Wyoming border to the New Mexico border, from the Rockies to the Kansas border.
