The filters like Britta / Pur do a decent job, but operational costs
seems to be more than the under sink / whole house filters with charcoal
elements which have similar performance.

If you want really pure water the under counter reverse osmosis units
work well and operational costs aren't too bad though the cost is both
filters and reject water. I hate city water and when I had a house with
city water I used an RO unit and was very happy with the resulting
water. The ~$150 or so RO setups from Depot/Lowe's, etc. are all fine.
