What Tap Water Filter Is the Best?

May 20, 2020

Do you really know what is in your drinking water? Most people are largely unaware of what kind of pollutants can actually be found in their water. There is a certain number of particles allowed!

Why Should You Get a Tap Water Filter?

Do you really know what is in your drinking water? Most people are largely unaware of what kind of pollutants can actually be found in their water. There is a certain number of particles allowed by the government within tap water, and without a tap water filter, you will be consuming these small amounts of pollutants.

Over time, they can have health effects on you, such as fatigue and headaches from drinking impure tap water. There is also an increased risk of contracting waterborne diseases through bacteria and viruses in the tap water if you do not have a water filter. This article is going to share some tips about tap water filters from plumbing experts.

Pros and Cons of Undersink Water Filters

You can install a water filter under your sink and have a constant flow of clean water whenever you need it. A lot of people prefer under-sink water filters because they are more out of your way than other types of water filters, such as a pitcher filter or a filter that is mounted on the faucet.

Under sink water filters work well in a lot of homes given that there is ample space beneath a counter for the placement of the water tank and purifier. One of the benefits of this system is that you get a lot of clean water at once unlike with a pitcher.

Other benefits include that the installation process for these systems is not terribly complicated and does not take a lot of time, nor will it take up a lot of space when it is done.

Benefits of Faucet Mounted Water Filter

For clean drinking water whenever you need it, a lot of people turn to faucet mounted water filters. These types of water filters can often snap on fairly easily to any existing faucet. The ease of installation, lower price of the filter, and the labor are probably what draws so many people to go with a faucet-mounted water filter for their water purification solution.

One of the negative sides to having a faucet-mounted water filter is that it will sometimes be in the way as you try to do other tasks in the sink. A water filtration system can often have a negative effect on the water pressure of your sink, which is one reason why faucet mounted water filters can be handy. A lot of them allow you to switch back and forth between a filtered and non-filtered flow of water so that you can still have a high water pressure flow for cleaning up in the sink or washing your hands.

The Best Result: Whole Home Water Filters

There are also certain types of water filter systems such as reverse osmosis that are used to treat the water in the entire home. A common problem with the water in many people\’s homes is what is called “hard water.”

Hard water occurs when there are too many minerals dissolved in the tap water. Mineral buildup on faucets and spots on dishes are some warning signs of hard water. The effects on human health are mostly cosmetic but can include such symptoms as itchy skin, dry skin, dry hair, and dry scalp.

Hard water can even damage your clothes in the laundry. A whole-home water filter will purify the water at the source for the entire house so that you will never have to struggle with the effects of hard water again.
