While there are tons of options when choosing a water filter, it is important to understand what you want your water filter to do for you. This will help you narrow down your options to choose the best filter for your home. Tap water alone has an upwards of 300+ chemicals, which is why a water filter is so important. Some of these chemicals include fluoride, pesticides and heavy metals. Check the water quality report on your local water company’s website to see a list of potential chemicals in your water. Once you know what to filter out, choosing a water filter is easy. One of the cheapest options is a charcoal filter, although these require frequent cartridge changing. Reverse osmosis filtration is one of the most effective and are conveniently stored under the sink. Under counter multi-stage filters are quite pricey, but do the best job at filtering water using a 14 step process.
