Clear Flow Filters Through the Competition with Innovative Kitchen and Bathroom Mount Water Filtration System

Business Wire, Nov 10, 2004

NEEDHAM, Mass. -- NSF-Certified, Long-Life Filters Now Available at Major Retail Outlets Nationwide

Clear Flow Corp., a premier manufacturer of water filtration and purification products, announced today that consumer acceptance of its innovative faucet mount water filters has exceeded expectations since the company launched the products at the International Home & Housewares Show in March 2004. Clear Flow's pioneering line of long life, disposable kitchen and bathroom faucet mount water filters have been shipping to major retail outlets, such as Linens N Things, Target and QVC since July.

Since its launch, Clear Flow has sold tens of thousands of units and continues to see a steady increase in product requests. "We couldn't be happier with the results of our product launch," said Bill Warren, president of Clear Flow. "We have a steady flow of calls coming from interested consumers and retailers eager to learn more about Clear Flow and where our products are sold."

The long life, disposable design sets Clear Flow apart from other filter makers. Clear Flow's filters can be used for up to one year before the entire unit needs to be replaced. The company's Bathroom(TM) Faucet Filter is the world's first faucet filter designed for bathroom sinks and includes an adjustable water fountain. Both the kitchen and bathroom filter units include electronic filter status lights that tell users when the filter is working and when it needs replacement. Each unit includes two faucet adapters to allow installation on most faucets.

"Having a water fountain in your bathroom is very exciting for families and the fact that it's filtered water is the icing on the cake," said Warren. "In addition, our kitchen model is proving that the convenience of a long life, cartridge-free design is a hit with time strapped consumers that have long complained about the nuisance of replacement filters."

The customer feedback Clear Flow has received has been nothing but positive. "I love that I don't have half full cups of water sitting on my bathroom counter. This is easy to install and use. Water is fresh and clean," said Clear Flow customer Janet VanKanegan, Norwalk, California of the Clear Flow Bathroom Faucet Filter.

Consumers can purchase the filters for approximately $25-$35 at major retail outlets, including Target, Linens n' Things and Duane Reed, among others. Additionally, Clear Flow products will air on QVC this winter. All product units are certified by NSF International to reduce many common contaminants affecting the taste and healthfulness of water, such as chlorine, lead, cysts, mercury, asbestos and more.

Customers can purchase Clear Flow filters at noted retail outlets and by calling the company's toll-free number at (888) 879-1666 or visiting its Web site at www.clearflowfilters.com.
