Tap Water Filtration Systems - Buyer's Guide
 Choosing from the many tap water filtration systems for your home can be a chore.  Here is a brief buyer’s guide to help you find the right tap water filter system.
Technology
Reverse osmosis and distillation are old out-dated purification technologies. They have been replaced by devices that will sit on your kitchen countertop or larger units that fit under the kitchen sink. There are effective products that attach to your showerhead and without disrupting flow-rate, remove chlorine and other hazardous chemicals that you are exposed to in the shower.
The technology to look for includes granular carbon, adsorption, filtering media to target specific chemical contaminants, ion exchange to target lead and metallic traces, as well as a submicron particle filter.
Similar to reverse osmosis, a submicron particle filter removes parasitic cysts and tiny speck-sized particulates. But, the step costs less and can be included in smaller devices. It also prevents the creation of wastewater and prevents waters from cycling around other filtering media.
Tap water filtration systems that include all of those steps are affordable, but not always easy to find.
Price
Price is sometime indicative of quality, sometime not. Even though reverse osmosis is out-dated, it is still included in many brands. It can quadruple the price that you pay and is basically unnecessary.
On the other hand, the cheap pitcher filters and those that attach directly to the faucet are mainly chlorine filters. They do not include enough steps to adequately address the contaminants we are faced with.Â
The systems that attach directly to the faucet require frequent replacement. Sometimes, the entire unit must be replaced every three months. That affects the cost of use and the economic advantages of tap water filtration systems.
Cost of Use
The best purifiers cost less than ten cents per gallon. Brita, PUR and other products that cost less initially cost double the price per gallon, 20-25 cents.
Reverse osmosis products increase your costs of use, as the membranes are expensive to replace and easily torn. They also require electricity to function properly and create wastewater that must be properly disposed of.
Look for tap water filtration systems that fully disclose costs like these, before you buy. If they do not include product performance data, look for a different brand.
Performance
Product performance data sheets also tell you about which contaminants will be removed and to what degree. They do not lists prescription drugs, which made the news this year when they were found in many facilities around the US, Canada and Europe.
Systems that target chemicals will remove these traces. Everything works more efficiently in a point-of-use device. The steps taken by facilities are on such a large scale that contaminant removal cannot be fully effective or completely guaranteed.
The steps to look for are mentioned in the technology section. My research found one tap water filtration system that included each necessary step.
Remember to compare technology, performance, purchase price and cost of use, before you buy. That way you will be satisfied with your tap water filtration systems and pleased with the money that you save by not buying bottled water.

Bottled Water vs. Brita Filters? Which one Saves more money?
I used to buy those 24-packs of Bottled Water for like $10 per box. I'd go through 3-4 bottles a day.
My friend suggested I buy a Brita or Pur tank and just filter it using tap water. He said it'll save money in the long run. But the filters have to replaced every 2 months, and they cost about $5-10 per replacement.
Which way do you use? Which one saves the most money? (And by Brita, I DONT mean the faucet extension - I'm talking about the pitcher)
btw, I live in NYC right now and lived in Miami for the last 10 years!
I just bought a water cooler from brandsmart. When I added up all the Zepphylrhills Water I was buying, I could not believe it.......they say to buy a Brita if you can't drink the water from the sink, here in Miami we can't. I used to live in N.Y., the water was great, now I have to buy it,
