Clean water means a healthy life for your
family. Unfortunately, we can’t always automatically trust the water that comes
out of the tap. This is why it would be better to have a water filter installed
in your home. However, which type of water filter should you choose? Here are some
of the common filters available on the market today:
- Activated Carbon Filter. This type of filter works by having
positively charged and absorbent carbon to attract any impurities to it.
This can be easily installed on the countertop or under your sink and it
mainly removes any bad taste and odors, which includes chlorine. They’re not
as effective at removing chemical and other worse contaminants, but it
should serve if you’re sure enough
about the relative safety of your water source.
- Distiller. While not exactly a filter, it does help in
cleaning your water. This is done by boiling the water and re-condensing
the purified steam. This is usually installed under your sink and will
manage to remove a lot of the contaminants in your water.
- Reverse Osmosis Filter. A semipermeable membrane is placed inside a
pipe and high-water pressure forces the water to pass through filter,
leaving the contaminants to be flushed away. This takes a lot of water
though. They are usually installed under the sink and is effective enough
to remove many contaminants.
