According to reports around 7 million American people use contaminated tap water for drinking. Now people are becoming more conscious of using filtered water. But many research studies indicate that filtered bottled water is also of tap water quality. There are many conventional ways where people are using filtered water. The following are some of the main ways to get filtered water.

1.Use of water pitchers is a simple, cheap and easy method. You can fill the pitcher with tap water and allow it to filter. But this process takes a lot of time to filter a liter of water. This is not a proper method for immediate use.

2.Use of Faucet Mounted Water Filters is a cheap and convenient method of obtaining filtered water. The filter is connected to a water faucet and by turning the tap, filtered water comes out. The cartridge needs to be replaced every month.

3.Use of under sink water filters is better than the above two methods because the whole setup is closed. For better performance, the filters are to be installed by professionals, as the cartridges need to be used for filtration purposes. The cartridges need to be replaced every six months. For an average person this system is not feasible.

4.Whole house water filtration systems filter every faucet in the home and it is better than under sink units. The cartridges need to be replaced every six months.

5.Use of reverse osmosis water filters is very popular. It is less expensive and more effective. The filter systems are available in the market today. The reverse osmosis water filter wastes 5 gallons of water for every gallon of water filtered. Reverse Osmosis Water filtration system is best among the above because even the smallest particles are filtered out

These are some of the choices for obtaining filtered water for your home. You can buy the suitable filtration system as per your requirement. There are lots of websites which sell these water filters, and the rates differ from company to company.
