Solve it at the source

Most of America starts trying to solve health problems after they've already shown up — when they're expensive, chronic, and most of the way irreversible. Water sits inside that pattern.

Once you start reading what actually comes out of an American tap — chlorine, trace metals from old service pipes, forever chemicals nobody tests for — you can't un-see it. The bottled exit isn't much better. Plastic leaches. Even glass-bottled water carries microplastics. There's no real escape at the kitchen counter.

So we came home. Cincinnati is where we grew up, and it's where we wanted to fix it — not at the sink with a pitcher, not at the grocery store with a case of bottles, but at the line where the city's water enters the house. One install. A flat price a real Ohio household can pay.
