Filter Your Water At The Tap Very Inexpensively - Put An On-Tap Water Filter On Your Kitchen Tap

Do I really need a water filter?  Well, it partially depends if you are satisfied with your present top water.  Your well water or your municipal water may taste fine but perhaps there's an odor that comes from it that you don't like.  In this case, you want to look at some of the least expensive type of water filtration available, the water filters that attach to your kitchen sink faucet. These are called point of use water filters because they are used at the faucet versus plumbed into the main water line. These filters use the very popular Activated Carbon filtration method.

This is a brief description of three different types of water filtration methods available to the consumer today:

1. Activated Carbon is the most popular and widely used type of on-tap water filter.  This type of filter will remove organic contaminants, which include chemicals that are most often responsible for odor or taste issues with your water.  When water passes through this filter, the carbon particles attract and remove these contaminants, which may include lead, mercury, chlorine, copper and hydrogen sulfide.
Activated Carbon filters can be composed of a solid block, which contains activated carbon particles that are compressed into dense material which the water has to travel through.  
It may instead contain a granular activated carbon filter, which as the title suggests, are granules of activated carbon which water has to pass through.

2. A resin filter is made up of a filter cartridge that contains resin's.  These will remove contaminants such as heavy metals such as lead, and minerals that can cause deposits in  kettles and coffee makers. Some filtration systems combine a resin filter with an activated carbon filter; this is a highly effective system to remove particles and also dissolve substances.

3.  A particle filter contains a membrane to screen out particles based on their size.  These filters are rated according to the number of microns of the pore size in the membrane. The smaller the micron number, the cleaner filter your water will be.  So a .05 micron will be cleaner than a .5 micron.  There's two types of materials that these filters will use:

a) a fiber filter, which will have larger pores that stop the dirt but will still allow contaminants that are dissolved to pass through.
b) a ceramic filter, which will be fine to screen out bacteria and parasites and other small particles... however, this filter will not disinfect water.

One thing all on-tap water filters have in common: it's important to remember to switch the valve on your kitchen tap water filter to bypass the filter when using hot water. Hot water may damage some of the filters components.

Some of the more popular on-tap water filter manufacturers are Brita, Pur, Culligan, Waterpik, Instapure, CrystaPure, Crystal Quest, and GE. Prices range from around and upwards.  You don't have to spend a lot to get good, filtered drinking water from your kitchen faucet!

Had to change my faucet and decided to make a video out of it. None of this was scripted....just me getting pissed trying to be a plumber yet again.

Kitchen Faucet with Water Filter

Kitchen Faucet with Water Filter     

When you hear the term "water filter" you might think of a large machine churning away in the garage or basement, but water filters come in all sizes and some can be very small.  Among the smallest of water filters are those filters that slide right onto a faucet, purifying all the water that comes out, cleansing it of its toxins and its carcinogens.  This kind of faucet might be ideal for a family in which everyone usually drinks tap water in the kitchen and no other room in the home (although it's still a good idea to get a showerhead filter so that you're showering with clean water).  

Kitchen faucet water filters are affordable and they're easy to attach and take care of.  And these kinds of filters come in various colors so they'll match the décor of your kitchen.  Their cartridges last up to a few months before they have to be replaced.  And the filters are often more complex devices than one might imagine; they might even have a few stages to their purification processes.  Plus, some of them allow you to switch between filtered and unfiltered water so you can wash dishes with unfiltered water.  Using less filtered water can make the filters last a little longer.  The only problem with these kinds of water filters is that sometimes they tend to leak, so that's something you might want to watch out for when you're shopping for such a liquid filter.

Do you know what the most important appliance in your house is? Well, it is a kitchen faucet filter. It is the best way to ensure clean and pure water used for cooking and drinking purpose. To understand its importance and tips on choosing the best one, read on.

It is a known fact that the quality of the water supplied to our homes is very poor. It has thousands of contaminants out of which 2,000 are known carcinogens. These contaminants include Chlorine, pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, arsenic, virus, cysts, pharmaceutical drugs etc.

Now, if this polluted water is consumed, it can cause numerous health ailments ranging from acne and constipation to cholera and even cancer! This is the reason why it becomes essential to purify this water.

This is where a kitchen faucet filter can be of extreme help.

It can sit either on top of the kitchen counter or under the sink and can efficiently remove all these contaminants from water. Thus, providing you nothing but clean and pure water – free from all impurities.

One important consideration while selecting a good faucet filter is the fact that it should not remove the essential minerals present in natural water. These minerals like Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium etc are required for the basic functioning of the body and drinking water rich in them is the only way to ensure their regular and optimal supply.

The water purifiers, especially the ones based on Reverse Osmosis, strip these minerals from the water – thus making it flat in taste and deprived of minerals too. Such water should is not recommended for prolonged consumption. Stay away from such filters and choose the one which removes contaminants while retaining the minerals at the same time.

Another thing to consider is the technology used in the filter. The best ones are based on the multi stage of processing employing cutting edge technologies like carbon filtration, sub micron filtration and ion exchange. Since these filters use a combination of different advanced technologies, they are most efficient and can remove practically all sorts of impurities from water.

Let me also add that depending on your neighborhood shop only may not be a good option here. You can look for an effective and efficient faucet filter on Internet too. Since they come directly from manufacturer, you can easily save the extra cost levied by the retailers and middlemen.

So, wait no further. Start looking for a good faucet filter today.
