Why Buy American?
If Made in America is important to you, then you know that most American made products cost more. For one, American workers earn considerably more than our foreign counterparts, and because of it, our families enjoy a higher standard of living. Equally important, is the quality. What is in your foreign made water purifier or cartridge made from? What metals or plastics did they use? They won’t even tell us.
We have been tempted to purchase Chinese made housing, fittings and cartridges, as the cost is one tenth of the price. But as we put a 50 year warranty on most of our products, that would not be possible if any part was made there.
Stainless steel housings vary in price and is determined by the quality of the stainless steel. 18/10 stainless is the minimum standard to qualify as stainless steel (18 parts chromium, 10 parts nickel total 28 parts out of 100). “What then, are the other 72 parts “filler metals” in foreign made filter housings?
Our housings are made of solid 304 surgical stainless steel or NSF certified food grade polypropylene.
Built to last a lifetime.
We believe that your family deserves the best, without compromise, and at American Water Filter we make the World’s Finest Purifiers of the highest possible quality made in America, saving jobs and the American Way of Life.
