Wondering whether the Multipure Aquadome Drinking Water System by Legande, Inc. is worth the splurge? Here are my thoughts.

Do you really need the Multipure Aquadome Drinking Water System? Water, as you know, is vital for all known forms of life. It comprises about 60% of the human body, so it’s hardly surprising that manufacturers have been stuffing water systems with innovations and solutions that are aimed at improving our health and life in general.

When I first heard of water filters, my immediate thought was: “does this water system actually help or is it just an added fancy feature for a drink that’s already available in our home?”

There’s no real way of knowing the answer without getting acquainted with such a product. Thankfully, I’ve attended Legande’s product launch last month, where the Multipure Aquadome was unveiled and put to test. So keep reading to find out if you should be investing in the Multipure Aquadome Drinking Water System, or if it’s something to keep in mind for the future.

What does Multipure Aquadome Drinking Water System do?

What it does exactly is it reduces contaminants in your water, leaving it healthful, pleasant tasting and smelling cleaner. As the name suggests, the Aquadome is shaped like a dome. It sits on the countertop next to your sink, only taking up about as much room as a small pitcher, and connects to your faucet.

It has solid carbon block filters that are certified and extensively tested by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) International—you have to understand that NSF International sets and tests products for public health and environmental safety standards.

The rigorous certification process holds companies, like Legande Inc., accountable in all aspects of their manufacturing. When a product is certified, it earns the right to bear the trademark NSF® mark, meaning, the product performs as it claims.

What are the benefits and features of Multipure Aquadome

Safe drinking water 

The most important feature of the Multipure Aquadome is its reliable and efficient filter that turns the tap water into a clean, healthful, (even tasty) water.

According to a peer-reviewed study published in the journal Heliyon last year, the Environmental Working Group (EWG) said that 87 percent of the cancer risk present in tap water comes from arsenic and byproducts of common disinfectants. Long-term exposure to arsenic, per the World Health Organization, can cause skin cancer, as well as cancer of the bladder and the lungs.

Tasty and healthful water

Multipure Aquadome doesn’t only provide water that’s safe to drink, but safe for food preparation too. Vegetables and fruits have improved taste with the use of water from the Aquadome—definitely brings the highest quality for cooking.

Carbon block technology

The Multipure Drinking Water System utilizes Multipure’s solid carbon block filter. This innovative and proprietary block filter employs multiple methods to reduce the presence of a wide variety of contaminants in water.

NSF-certified

Multipure Aquadome (and all other Multipure drinking water systems) are certified by NSF International to comply with NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53 for the reduction of contaminants specified as follows: Chloramine, Chlorine, Nominal particulates, Asbestos, Cyst, Mercury, PCB, Toxaphene, Chlordane, Lead, MTBE, Radon, Turbidity, and other Volatile Organic Compounds. Full list can be found in the manual.

Convenient, stylish, high-grade

Style and convenience are other top features of the Multipure Aquadome.

Its white color lets it blend to any color scheme in your kitchen. Its size doesn’t occupy much space. If you put it just next to your sink, just like what I did, it’s not an eyesore. The plastic housing is not only stylish but also high- quality, impact- and pressure-resistant.

If you already have a faucet at home, you can just install the diverter valve and have additional “water outlets” instead of a replacement. The valve attaches easily to your faucet without tools. How convenient is that!

Cost-effective 

The Aquadome is a cost-effective solution too, given its benefits and features; it can replace costly (yet not as healthy) bottled water.

How much is the Multipure Aquadome?

The Multipure Aquadome with pre-filter currently costs Php44,990.00. The cost comes with a 90-day guarantee—meaning, if it doesn’t live to its performance as it claims, you can exchange the product or refund promptly. 

The drinking water system housing has a lifetime warranty, all other exteriors have one year warranty.
