What is the best brand of a reverse osmosis + carbon water filtration system?

I want the best brand that combines both technologies – RO and carbon filtering – into one apparatus.

Fart underwater and the bubbles will filter the water. Saves lots of money on fancy do-nothing filtration systems.

Which water filter is the best to use for drinking water?

A rep from water filteration agency came to my house to check my water condition and give me a quote. Basically my water tested out very bad and had a lot of minerals in it. The water from the refrigerator wa the same, i have Whirlpool Gold refrigerator with water filter in it, did it not make any difference? He quoted me $6000 for a water fileration system for my entire house. I do not wate rto spend that much, which water filter can i use just for drinking water so that it is good to drink atleast

I like Frigidaire’s Refrigerator Water Filters by PureSource. I’ve noticed that my water is better tasting and it’s really easy to change.

WHat is the best type of water filtration system that doesn’t kill all the minerals?

admin — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 23:11:18 +0000

Reverse Osmosis is claimed to be the best by many, but it rids of all the minerals. This is very bad for the body. Is there a technology out there that filters out all of the negative elements found in tap water, but permits the healthy minerals to remain intact?

Knowledgeable answers only please. Thanks.

Drinking water without minerals is NOT bad for the body. It will make the water taste different but it will not harm you. Water is absorbed in the body by a natural process called osmosis. Osmosis moves water (not minerals) from a lower concentration (drinking water) to a higher concentration (cells). The minerals do not move only the water moves.

In order to determine what filter is best for you then you have to define what you THINK are the negative elements in tap water.

Minerals: RO removes them most efficiently.
Chlorine: Carbon filter
Virus: RO, or Distillation
Giardia: Ultra-filtration
Cryptosporidia: Ultra-filtration

The removal of minerals is a good thing, regardless of what psuedoscientists tell you.
The removal of chlorine can be a bad thing; as chlorine prevents bacteria growth in the water.

If you are talking about unhealthy minerals such as radioactive materials then an RO IS the best solution.

I would recommend an ultra-filter if you want to leave the minerals and take out the potential harmful stuff.

I don’t know if these guys are any good but they have an interesting system…"Watersafety Systems"

What is the best whole house water filter solution to get as-close-to-distilled water as possible?

I’m looking for a water filtration solution that works as well as water distilliation — a single unit or multiple units that remove *EVERYTHING* from the water.

I have inquired Polar Bear distillers about whether their systems could be used on a whole house and they told me that they could not — is this true? Couldn’t multiple distillers, or distillers linked to larger storage tanks be used together?

What are some of the products out there and how can these products be installed and/or linked together? Can you use a softener, a Reverse-Osmosis and a UV filter all at once, for instance? Are there systems that do all of this without having to "chain" them together?

Please do not let cost considerations inhibit replies — I would like to know about systems in all price ranges. Thank you!

I put in a Rayne system to do just this. It can be used with a Reverse Osmosis and UV filter at the same time. They are expensive units, but mine came with a lifetime warranty. Glad it did, too, because my pressure regulator blew the tank and even though it was caused by something outside of the unit, they replaced it for free.

What is the very best way to go with well water and Reverse Osmosis and/ or a whole house filter system ?

Most of the water systems are quite costly, especially if you want whole house filtration. I elected to use a water softener to deal with the hard water from the well and a separate water purification system for drinking/cooking water. The one I use in the kitchen filters out the "junk" and kills bacteria to result in 99% pure water.

Contact me for more details at scorp5543@yahoo.com on the water purification system if that appeals to you.

what is the best and most inexpensive filtering system for chlorinated water in my apartment?

admin — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 06:18:02 +0000

I was going to use Brita but I don’t see chlorine listed in what it filters out.

You can’t have the best, and yet have it be inexpensive. I’ve heard that reverse-osmosis water filters remove everything from the water. However, I’ve also heard that the most basic models cost at least $300 per sink/outlet. Maybe you should just start buying bottled water, thats what my family does, it does cost more, over time. However, it is easier to pay. I also suggest looking online, for chlorine filtering water filters. Our water problems aren’t with chlorine, so I haven’t looked into this yet.
Good Luck , and BTW, Brita is just a scam, all it has is a tiny filter to trap microorganisms, and reduce led, by adding MORE CHEMICALS. If you live in an apartment, odds are you don’t have microorganisms in your water to begin with , thats what the chlorine kills. So, don’t use Brita.

Best Water Filter?

Hello,
I want to have a water filteration system. We are only 2 people. Our tap water tastes very bad. Which brand should i go with and from where i can get that at good price. I don’t want to spend more than $175.
Thanks for taking some of your precious time to help me with my question.

We have a Brita filter that goes right on our tap and only cost about $35. You have to replace it every few months. It makes the water taste fantastic. My SIL in the same town uses the pitcher, which does a fantastic job.

Home Water filter that doesn’t leave the water dead and flat.?

admin — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 06:22:02 +0000

I’m concerned by the amount of oil burned to truck and fly bottled water around the world so I would rather just drink tap water. What is the best installed water filter system that doesn’t leave the water with out minerals?

You do not need a water filter unless there are demonstrated, proven and frequent cases of disease communicated by your local water supply. For virtually everyone in North America, Australia, Japan, Russia, New Zealand, Europe and South Africa water filters are a glorious waste of money and resources. The sales are supported by a lot of advertising that implies health risks but does not actually say there are any. In short, they almost, but not quite, lie.

In fact domestic and office size water filters are dangerous to health because if the filter elements are not serviced or changed regularly they can change the odd bacterium that does get through the municipal system into a big colony right at your water tap.

No water filter that you can install at your home or in your office can remove metals in solution permanently. The most they can do is remove some of them until the activated carbon, if used, saturates and the metals go through anyway.

No municipal water supply in the countries I have just mentioned have dangerous levels of heavy metals unless you have a situation as set out in that Erin Brokovitch movie. In that case only reverse osmosis or distillation would be any good and that would cost a lot more than a filter. Like five or ten times more.

Don’t waste your money.

Edit -I stand (or sit) corrected on the metals issue, but I did say "unless you have a situation as set out in that Erin Brokovitch movie." However I still stand behind my main statements, these thing are promoted by what amount to lies and their capacity to absorb metals is limited.
