Just wondering how many use any filter jugs or in line filters for their
water at home/office/work.

And if so how many use it in cooking ?

I have a dual inline filter I use for drinking and cooking but I don't use
it to boil pasta.

Our town water tastes terrible so I have a carbon filter in the cold water
line to the kitchen. Any cold water used there is filtered.

We use a filter jug (Brita) for drinking water. I used to use it for
making tea, ice cubes, etc. but I've been lazy lately and using tap
water for cooking,

We live in the bush so we have rainwater tanks for everything but if I had
to consume the stuff they have in town I'd be filtering it for sure.
Or replacing it with wine or something. It's gross.

I have an RO filter, I use that filtered water for drinking, coffee, ice
cubes, and all cooking except for where the water will not be retained, like
boiling pasta, boiling eggs, etc. And since I have my own private well all
my water is sterilized with a UV lamp. I also have a water softener for all
water except for hose bibs and the RO filter.

You obviously haven't tasted Adelaide's water then. Perth's is distilled
by comparison!

Luckily, St. Louis water is fine right from the tap. We lived in
Tampa Bay when my wife was in grad school. There, I'd never drink
unfiltered tap water. I assumed that only really poor people would
drink it. It was even nasty to shower in.

I have a reverse osmosis system under the kitchen sink. It has a spigot
thing on the sink and we use that water for drinking and cooking. It is
also hooked to the water line for the ice maker and water dispenser on
the fridge.

We rent the system from Culligan. They service it, including changing
the filters. It costs $45 for 2 months and is about what we were paying
for bottles water. Our regular tap water tastes terrible.

My tap water is drinkable if you're really thirsty. I vastly prefer
filtered. It varies on a daily basis from smelling like sulfur to smelling
like too much chlorine.
A guy from the city came and tested it once. He said that it was perfectly
safe for drinking, but you wouldn't want it in your pool. Strange.

Unfiltered well water will turn your toilet and shower red here. I have
city water thankfully.

Our tapwater comes from the Detroit regional water system, and
it's just fine. It's drawn from the Great Lakes, upstream from
Detroit.

Why pray tell are you renting it. You are paying $250 a year for something
you can buy outright at Lowes and elsewhere for under $200. An RO filter
needs service only once a year to once every two years depending on usage
volume... the RO membrane is good for like ten years. Servicving entails
changing a couple of disposable cartridges, using a few alcohol wipes on the
fitting threads, and recharging the tank pressure with a bicycle pump. In
ten years you will have paid $2,500 for what should cost more like $600.

Here in TX we don't have cold water lines, just "warm" and "hot".

Normally I don't reply to Sheldon, but he's not correct. A friend of
mine purchased his system and it costs him more than what I pay to just
replace his 3 filters every year. Friend said he would have done better
with Culligan.

Also, there is a tray with a sensor under the filter and if it leaks the
sensor goes off. They come and fix everything. 24/7 service.

They change the filters twice a year. DH and I are too old and stiff to
go crawling under the sink to change filters. It's worth it to have them
do it.

That is very true. We would always fill the tank on the RV whenever we
stopped there.

The dealer we bought our last fifth wheel from had his dealership on his
farm in northern Iowa, just south of Blue Earth, MN. He had an artesian
well on the property and we would fill jugs of water when we visited. It
tasted sooooo good.

I know. Here soon we will have 2 hot lines. Cold water comes from the

I remember water tasting great when I was growing up in Utah. It was also
pretty good in Tennessee. Maui water was quite good from the tap.
A lot of people say New York pizza is superior because of their wonderful
water, but Shelly shot that one in the ass.

What a stupid thing to admit... but you read my posts... you just don't want
folks to know that's how you learn, a lot of rfc'er do exactly the same,
have been for years and years, right after I post something they paraphrase
me even though they claim to have my posts blocked or claim not to read
them. And I'm 100% correct.

Are you saying Lowes is lying on the prices? Anytime someone attempts to
extricate themself from an embarrassing spot with "I have a friend who"
everyone knows they're lying.

Were the system to leak it would be more likely at the connection to your
fridge, did they install a sensor tray under your fridge, I thought not.
Culligan is a rip off company, they over charge, they install inferior
products, their technicians know nothing about water treatment, and they
don't last at that job any longer than door to door vacuum cleaner sales
people... in fact they know more about selling vacuums.

You're just a sucker... may as well have "SUCKER" tattooed on your forehead.
You're just ****ed that I exposed you... no one with an IQ rents an RO
filter. Hey, psst... I got this here bridge for sale.

Anyway you don't have an RO filter, you only mentioned it after I did, and
no one else mentioned an RO filter... the thread was ongoing so if you had
an RO you certainly would have said so previously. Janet, your story has
more holes than a colander... LIAR!

I think when I was in Glenelg two years ago there was a sign in the holiday
unit we rented not to drink the water.
Of course, in the State of Coopers, who's drinking water anyway?

I don't live in NYC. Had you become a man and held a man's job and took
proper care of your wife in a timely *MANLY* fashion she'd still be alive...
but you sure _shot that one in the ass_. Your crocodial blubbering is just
a distraction you hide your guilt behind. PARASITE BOY is still sucking
off his momma's tit... don't you know that a man is supposed to take of his
momma, not her taking care of you or you're still a BOY... where will you
live after you suck her dry and she's gone too.

Gloria, if you knew how to read you would know that I never said I service
my RO filter. I don't, I pay the same water treatment specialist who
services my two wells, my two water softeners, and my two UV water treatment
systems... once a year he services everything all together, he bills me $40
for servicing my RO. I could do it myself, changing cartridges is as simple
as changing refills in a ball point pen, but why should I bother, I'd have
to go to the store to buy cartridges, and Walter charges me less for them
because buying them in bulk he pays less then half price. Again, anyone who
rents a UV filter is a moron. Had Ms Wilder said she bought the filter and
pays to have it serviced I might've believed her, but to me it's obvious
she's lying... she doesn't strike me as someone so free with her money who
would pay all that money to have filtered water if she could pay ten times
less by buying her own filter. I mean would you rent a Britta and then pay
someone like $45 to come change the filter every two months.

And you're dumber than a rock about car batteries... it's a one time
occurance in SIX YEARS... I actually paid less by having someone else do it.
Nowadays only cheap *******s who drive ancient clunkers spend all their
spare time playing grease monkey.

Some folks make no sense whatsoever... like the morons who brag about saving
$200 heating with wood... anyone with half an IQ and the brawn to split wood
can earn that much in one evening as a bouncer at the local titty bar.

Water is my choice of beverage and I do not filter mine. I drink tap
water almost everywhere I go, including Mexico, Argentina, Brazil. The
water never bothers me. I must have a gut made of iron. lol

I also eat the local food and don't get crook.

Yes, significantly purer than bottled water, and RO water costs about 5¢ a
gallon. Bottled water is essentially ordinary tap water (from someone elses
tap is all), and costs a lot more than a nickle a gallon. Bottled water
typically costs more than petrol. Buying bottled water is really quite
inane... it costs way too much, and producing those plastic jugs,
transporting them, and their disposal pollutes the entire planet. I can see
bottled water in places where tap water is not potable, but everytime I see
someone in the US sucking bottled water I think there goes another pointy
headed imbecile whose college tuition was totally wasted.

While down in Perth after a trip away on tasks Perth water seems to
have become rather lousy
However the water in Singapore appears to have improved no end

Rain tanks were empty for a while and nice to have then near full

Scheme water in the mid west is not too bad .

However we have a a number of Carbon filters in place as well as
heaps of brita jugs
when we change the filters the granulated carbon seems to give the
soil in the veggie gardens a kick along also .

Why the question was asked was that the spuds seem to taste off if
use unfiltered scheme water ?

few of the neighbours also have commented on how the veggies taste a
bit ẗainted" sort of kerosene after taste is the way I would describe
it
