Culligan ZeroWater 10-Cup Pitcher (ZEROP10)

The only pitcher we found with lead, Total PFAS, fluoride and nitrate on one certification listing. Its short filter life makes it costly to run.

PurityMap analysis · bottom line

The only pitcher we found with lead, Total PFAS, fluoride and nitrate on one certification listing. Its short filter life makes it costly to run.

Match factors
  • ✓ IAPMO-certified to NSF/ANSI 53 for lead and Total PFAS
  • ✓ Also certified for fluoride and nitrate/nitrite
  • ✓ No installation
Watch-outs
  • – About 20 gallons per filter
  • – Filters wear out fast on high-TDS water

Limitations and trade-offs

  • Rated for about 20 gallons per filter, so filters are costly to run.
  • Its ion-exchange media is used up quickly on water high in dissolved solids.
  • Not reverse osmosis, and not a hardness solution.
  • Treats the water you pour through it, not a whole tap.
  • Frequent filter changes
  • Slower pour
  • Small batch capacity

No filter treats every water problem. This analysis does not replace household testing, installation requirements, or the manufacturer’s current performance data sheet.

Not suitable for

  • Treating every tap in the home
  • A whole-home hard-water or scale problem
  • All PFAS: its evidence covers only the compounds it names
