About CleanWaterAdviser

Independent water filter research since 2024

CleanWaterAdviser exists because most water filter reviews are written by people who have never tested a filter - they copy specs from Amazon listings and call it research.

We do it differently. Every filter on this site is verified against the official NSF International certification database, independent lab reports, and real owner feedback from the last 24 months.

Our methodology
01 Check NSF International certification database
02 Review independent lab reports from manufacturers
03 Analyze real owner reviews - 24-month window only
04 Update ratings monthly as new data becomes available
