 Re: tap water filter
well from what a read about the pur and brita filters is that they dont really remove all the materials that you want removed. RO/DI units are nice, and are usually pocket friendly down the road. setting one up in your house is the costly part, but it filters more water with one resin cartridge. the tap water filters are okay but if the pressure is too high then it pushes all the resin out. so be carefull if you use one. also be sure to get a water test from your local water source, and see what they have in the water. after that you can read up on those purifyers and see what they take out of the water, and then use your judgment. for a reef i wouldnt use anything other than a 3 stage RO unit. good luck in your quest!! |
