Show Notes:

Emma sat down with Johnny Pujol, a water expert experienced in contaminant research, testing and treatment. He has developed several new water treatment technologies for arsenic, fluoride and heavy metal remediation as well as advised on UV LED technology for pathogen and pharmaceutical inactivation. John has a Masters in Engineering from UC Berkeley and Bachelors in Economics from Boston University.

We discuss:

Why you should test your water.
What kinds of contaminants are in our drinking water.
What contaminants should be tested for at a minimum, for urban and well water supplies
Regulatory vs health-focused detection limits and maximum concentrations
The worst advice you’ve heard someone get about filtering their water
Advice for someone looking to filter their water
