>> municipal numbers and statements are not trustworthy
The claims of the manufacturers of filters, of course, are completely trustworthy. If you aren't testing the capabilities of your filters constantly, this is fine.
- BugsJustFindMe 1y agoYou can sue a manufacturer for lying about independent testing and certification. Good luck suing your county.

- Xss3 1y agoThe point is they have a reputation to uphold and not just skin in the game but multiple peoples livelihoods. Just one or two bad test results, or one failed audit, can sink a business like that. The county can have thousands of people scream for years (flint, Michigan) without panicking.

- mousethatroared 1y agoI don't trust the manufacturer, but I can test the manufacturers water. I don't trust my municipality because they cheaped out on the corrosion inhibitors chemistry, leached lead into the water and my house is now filled with developing pinhole leaks. I've had five in four years. Hint, I don't live anywhere near Flint MI.
- rufus_foreman 1y agoYou can test the filter manufacturer's water but you can't test the municipality's water? Strange days indeed.
- mousethatroared 1y agoThe probability of getting a positive test for lead given that I already know the city messed up and there's lead in the water is 100%. So why test?
