Echo, a company that specialises in hydrogen-enriched water solutions, has introduced a new whole-home water filtration system designed to remove a wide range of common water contaminants.
The Echo Pure Whole Home Water Filter combines advanced filtration with water softening to treat all household water from a central point of entry.
The system uses a five-stage process to reduce chlorine, chloramine, PFAS, lead, fluoride, bacteria and viruses. It includes UV light technology for microbial disinfection and is engineered to improve water taste, clarity and odour.

The system is designed for homes with ¾” to 1” municipal water lines and features a modular design with replaceable filters to extend lifespan. It includes FDA-approved components, NSF 61 certified carbon and is compliant with California Proposition 65.
Josh Carr, CEO of Echo, said: "Our customers are looking for trusted ways to protect their family’s health – and water quality is a huge part of that. The Echo Pure reflects our ongoing commitment to combining high performance with thoughtful design. It’s clean, softened water for every faucet, not just the kitchen."
The Echo Pure system is priced from $3,499 and is available for purchase at via the brand's website.
