“So we at Brita here today work with over two hundred communities on implementing point of use or pitcher filter solutions that anyone at home can run under a sink and feel confident that they’re getting as big of a lead reduction benefit as possible.  Our products are certified to reduce 99 percent of lead and communities obviously want to make sure that their residents have every tool possible.”
