How Much Could You Save? Try the
Bottled Water Calculator
|
|
![]() On
average, tap water costs U.S. taxpayers 0.2 cents per gallon – which is
roughly
750-2,700 times cheaper than bottled water on a per
gallon basis, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA
has also found most of this water to be very safe. Over 90 percent of
U.S. municipal water systems regularly meet or exceed the EPA’s
regulatory and monitoring requirements.
Why are you breaking your budget when you can break the
bottled water habit?
Use our bottled water
calculator to help you compute the financial and environmental
impact of your bottled water consumption.
