Countertop Water Filter System Product

This type of water filter system is commonly used when you require a water filter for a short period of time such as when you are on vacation at a hotel or cabin or perhaps you are temporarily living in an apartment or staying with relatives or friends. The countertop water filter system is also appropriate to use when you don't have enough room under your counter to place a water filter system. Also, no plumbing is required. The countertop water filter system might be preferred over a faucet water filter because they can usually provide a more complex filtering system for purifying your drinking water.

Installation

The countertop water filter system is simple to install in your home and they have a diverter valve that you easily attach to any faucet in your home. This valve gives you the option of obtaining filtered water or basic tap water. The system will provide you with water that tastes better and is safer than the typical tap water. Depending on the unit you choose and the number of filtering stages you desire the units do not require that much of your precious kitchen counter space. They are typically plastic but some manufactures offer attractive chrome models. Some of the units come with a free decanter that you can conveniently place it in your refrigerator if you prefer cold water.

Health Benefits From Using a Countertop Water Filter System.

The typical system will remove chlorine, lead, unwanted organic particles, cysts and close to a hundred other undesirable particles from your drinking water. They also remove microscopic sediment particles, pesticides and herbicides. They are designed to leave minerals such as magnesium, calcium and potassium in your drinking water. They also remove particles that can cause foul taste or unwanted smell in your tap water. Depending on the unit you purchase a gallon of purified water will cost only about ten cents and is considerably cheaper than bottled water.

To ensure that your countertop water filter system is working at its best you will want to change the filter about twice a year or after you have purified about 500 gallons of water. Some units come with filters that don't need to be removed until you have purified about 1500 gallons of water. You just have to remove the cartridge cap from the filter housing then remove the old filter cartridge and easily install the new filter. You might want to flush the filter with your tap water for a few minutes. Using a countertop water filter system is a great way to provide your family with good tasting safe drinking water.
