Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Chemical overdose or misuse, Degradation and loss of efficacy over time, Glass bottle breakage and spillage and Chlorine residue and taste/odor on the Aquamira and not on the Dupont.
  • We flag Bacterial growth in filter cartridge and housing, Seal and gasket material composition and Microbial regrowth in stagnant water on the Dupont and not on the Aquamira.
  • The Aquamira is glass bottles, sodium dichloroisocyanurate treatment chemical where the Dupont is Ceramic pitcher with activated carbon/RO filter cartridge, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • These two are 5 points apart, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
