What is the best Home Water Filter option for us?

Posted by admin

I live in Tampa, FL, where the water is very hard and has sulfur in it. I live in an apartment, so I cannot use a whole-house system to clean and soften the water; also, we will be leaving this apartment next March. I want to clean the water in the kitchen for drinking/cooking and on the showers (two), because the sulfur does weird things to our hair and skin. What might be the best option(s) for us?

I live in Sarasota county and I installed a Watts Reverse Osmosis System from Sams Club
you can get an under sink system from Culligan,kenmore,GE, ect. online or at home centers and they have shower head filters that screw on


what counter-top water filter is best for removing broad range contaminants?

Posted by admin

My area has really bad water, in some cases the city water even has shown asbestos. I get water delivered but am now learning that the #7 plastic it comes in is suspect. Also its expensive.

QUESTION: what counter-top water filter system is best for removing serious contaminates like pcbs and asbestos, lead, etc. Those pitcher-filters as I understand it only improve taste and 2-3 other contaminates, which is not enough for my needs.
On doing research there are 9383838 counter-top filter systems for sale but I am kind of lost trying to find out which one is BEST at REMOVING CONTAMINATES.
thanks.
cost isnt really an issue. i need water every day etc.
oh ya i rent i cant modify my kitchen or do giant setups

If you rent I say Hey Culligan Man they do have rental units that fit under the counters. Reverse Osmosis type and yes they are not cheap but you get what you pay for.
When we lived in the city before we moved out here I had a complete reverse osmosis unit with a softener and the water was 99.9995 pure I work at a pharmaceutical company and I had one of our engineers test it twice a year this is their results.
Where we live now I do have a culligan water treatment and softener as well, we have extremely hard water and tons of chlorine in it. Our pool needs little to no chlorine added if we run the water with out it that tells you it is bad.
I take this water to work and have them test it twice a year as well it is 99.575 pure with a rental of Culligan products.
They do work well and you have to change the filters as recommended per their use.

Hope this helps you cn buy these too but they are not cheap you do get what you pay for.

Good Luck :)
