How to Effectively Compare Best Drinking Water Filters!


Most of us are somewhat aware of why we should use drinking water filters to purify the water we use in our homes, but choosing a quality filter leaves many of us feeling puzzled. Everywhere you turn now there are companies touting their filters as the best available on the market. So, how does a person know which drinking water filter is best?
When you are considering buying a drinking water filter for your home there are many things that you need to consider. Knowledge is power when it comes to investing in a water filtration system for you and your family. So, use the following buyer's guide to select the best drinking water filter you possibly can.

The first thing that you as the consumer should look for when you are buying a new water filter is the product performance data. Drinking water filters are not required by law in every state to provide this information, only a handful of states require companies to disclose this information to consumers. Regardless of this being a requirement or not, a company that is confident in the superiority of their drinking water filters will provide this information.
When you are armed with product performance data you can easily compare the effectiveness of one product over another. The product performance data will tell you what that drinking water filter leaves in and what it takes out of your drinking water. It will also break down the cost of using the best water filter in terms of gallons of water filtered or by how long the filter can be used before it needs to be replaced.
The easiest way to determine how often you will have to replace the drinking water filters on a certain filtration system is in terms of gallons of water filtered. This is because you can easily figure out how much drinking water your family consumes daily and measure that next to how many gallons each filter cleans. When a company only lists a time frame for filter usage you have no way of determining how many gallons that filter cleans. If it filters less efficiently you may end replacing it sooner than the listed time frame.


Another important thing to consider when you are comparing drinking water filters is what each filter takes out and leaves in. You want a filter that removes the harmful chemicals, lead, prescription drugs, pharmaceuticals, and chlorine resistant parasites. However, believe it or not, there are some things that should be left in our drinking water. Water is filled with natural trace minerals that can be very beneficial to our health when consumed on a regular basis. Many drinking water filters neglect this important fact and filter these minerals out.
Finally, when you are shopping for a new drinking water filter do your homework. Consumer reviews, informative articles, and industry research can all be instrumental in your decision-making process. Making the investment in a quality drinking water filter is not just a financial investment, it is an investment in the health of you and your family.

How does a reverse osmosis water system work?

Reverse Osmosis works by using a high-pressure pump to increase the pressure on the salty side of the RO and force the water across the semi-permeable RO membrane, leaving almost all (around 95% to 99%) of dissolved salts behind in the reject stream. The amount of pressure required depends on the salt concentration of the feed water. The more concentrated the feed water, the more pressure is required to overcome the osmotic pressure. The desalinated water that is demineralized or deionized, is called permeate (or product) water. The water stream that carries the concentrated contaminants that did not pass through the RO membrane is called the reject (or concentrate) stream. As the feed water enters the RO membrane under pressure (enough pressure to overcome osmotic pressure) the water molecules pass through the semi-permeable membrane and the salts and other contaminants are not allowed to pass and are discharged through the reject stream (also known as the concentrate or b...

Reverse Osmosis Water Filter in San Diego.

You might think that a reverse osmosis water filter is a good choice to improve the quality and taste of your tap water, but unless you live in a rural area with a really questionable water supply, you would really be wasting your money. If you are like most of us, the water from your tap has already passed through a reverse osmosis filter. That doesn't mean that it's completely safe or that it tastes good. Most water treatment facilities use a reverse osmosis water filter during one step of their operation. Large particles are trapped by the membrane of the reverse osmosis filter . Small particles still pass through. You see, the reverse osmosis water filter was designed for large scale operations, industries that require de-mineralized water and for people traveling in outlying areas without public water. The reverse osmosis filter that companies are promoting for in home use is not what most of us need. They are expensive and inefficient. They waste more water t...
