9 Reasons Aquasana Systems are Worth the Investment

Discover how Aquasana systems deliver exceptional long-term value, making them a smart investment for healthier, better tasting water at home.

By: Rachel Carollo

Aquasana has earned its place as a leader in water filtration thanks to our commitment to high performance, thoughtful engineering, and long-term reliability. While there are lots of options to choose from when it comes to picking a water filter, here are nine reasons why Aquasana systems stand apart from the competition and are worth investing in.

1. Superior Performance

Aquasana systems deliver exceptional performance to protect against a wide range of contaminants depending on your needs. From chlorine and chloramines to threats such as lead, PFAS, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, volatile organic compounds, and microplastics, Aquasana has a variety of systems to target the contaminants that matter most for your home’s water quality.

What also makes Aquasana’s performance stand out is our commitment to multi-stage, optimized filtration. Instead of relying on a single method, Aquasana systems layer different technologies to address contaminants more effectively and maintain strong flow rates. This means you get healthier, better tasting water without sacrificing convenience or day-to-day usability. It’s this level of reliable, high-performance filtration that makes Aquasana a leader in water filtration systems.

2. Rigorous Testing and Certifications

One of the biggest reasons Aquasana stands out is our commitment to testing and transparency. Every system undergoes rigorous evaluation by independent, third-party laboratories and is certified to NSF/ANSI Standards, the industry’s gold standard for proving a filter actually does what it claims to do. These certifications ensure each system delivers reliable, verifiable contaminant reduction you can trust.

We also take transparency a step further by publishing a detailed Performance Data Sheet for every system. This document shows exactly how each model performed against each contaminant during testing, so you can see how effective the system is at removing specific contaminants for yourself rather than relying on vague claims. This level of transparency is part of what sets Aquasana apart from the competition.

3. Advanced Technology

Aquasana’s commitment to advanced engineering is one of the key reasons our systems offer exceptional performance. Instead of relying on a single method of filtration, Aquasana designs each system with multiple layers of technology that work together to improve performance and extend system life.

A great example of this is Aquasana’s Claryum® technology, which combines activated and catalytic carbon with ion exchange and sub-micron filtration. This multi-stage process targets a wide range of contaminants while allowing beneficial minerals like calcium, potassium, and magnesium to remain in the water. Many systems also include sediment pre-filters that help capture larger particles early on, reducing strain on the primary filtration media and supporting longer filter life. For homes that need even greater protection, we offer systems with UV filters designed to reduce bacteria and viruses without the use of chemicals.

4. Long Filter Lifespan

Aquasana filters are designed with longevity in mind, with technology that helps extend filter life and options that fit a wide range of households and usage needs. Depending on the system you choose, filter capacities can range from convenient six-month replacements to high capacity whole house systems that last up to ten years before needing a replacement. Longer filter lifespans help you save money on replacements, and spend less time on maintenance.

5. Exceptional Value for the Cost Per Gallon

Compared to bottled water and even many other water filtration systems, Aquasana filters offer exceptional value in terms of the cost per gallon.

For example, consider the Aquasana Rhino® whole house water filter. This system is rated for up to 1,000,000 gallons over approximately 10 years. Even if the system costs, say, $1,200 to $1,400 depending on model and install specifics, when you divide that total by the million-gallon capacity, the cost per gallon of filtered water works out to $0.0012 to $0.0014 per gallon. At less than one cent per gallon, the system is far more cost effective than bottled water and even many other water filtration systems.

6. Premium Build Quality with Eco-Friendly Materials

Aquasana systems are built with long-lasting quality in mind, using durable housings and carefully engineered components that stand up to daily use. Every element is designed for strength, stability, and consistent performance, helping the system run reliably year after year to ensure strong performance and minimize waste.

Aquasana also prioritizes eco-friendly design, using minimal plastic that’s entirely BPA-free to ensure systems are safe for consumers and the environment. Not to mention, using a water filter instead of bottled water helps reduce plastic waste overall in the environment.

By pairing durable construction with eco-friendly materials, Aquasana systems are both reliable and sustainably designed.

7. Increased Interest in Your Home When Selling It

Our systems are built to stand the test of time, and they can even increase interest in your home when it comes time to put it on the market. In our most recent Water Quality Survey, 71% of Americans and 80% of parents noted that a home with a whole house or under sink water filter is more appealing as a home buyer. For interested buyers who are especially health conscious, or for homes in areas with notable water quality concerns — a high quality water filter can help boost the property’s appeal making it easier to sell the home.

8. Easy Maintenance

Aquasana systems are designed with user-friendly maintenance in mind, making filter replacements quick and straightforward. Each system comes with clear text instructions and access to helpful support resources, including detailed owner manuals and step-by-step installation guides that walk you through every stage of the process. For visual learners, We also offers a full library of installation and replacement videos that make it easy to follow along and complete a filter change with confidence. If you ever need additional support with maintenance or installation, third-party professional installers can also be located through Aquasana’s referral network.

To make upkeep even simpler, Aquasana offers the Water For Life® program, which automatically tracks when your system needs a new filter and ships replacements right to your door. Members also receive an extended warranty, a 15% discount on replacement filters, and free shipping to simplify maintenance with other long-term benefits.

9. Satisfaction Guarantee, Warranty & Excellent Support

Aquasana stands behind every system with strong customer protections that help you feel confident in your purchase. Each system comes with a 90 Day Pure Satisfaction Guarantee, which allows you to try the product in your home and return it if it isn’t the right fit. Aquasana also provides system-specific warranties that outline exactly what is covered and for how long, giving you long-term peace of mind. You can explore the full details of both the guarantee and available warranties through each system’s official documentation.
