    Water purifying pitchers.

    Does anyone own/purify their tap water?


    I bought a PUR water pitcher and ir works well-actually, works fantastic.

    I want to buy a larger one for the fridge, the pitcher only does a little more that a quart each time and I am looking to see if anyone has any experiences with the larger models.

    I know about the faucet -screw on models-but would have to buy a whole new faucet assembly and I am a little leary of the condition of the pipes in the kitchen and afraid that the back pressure would case me problems!


    Thanks!

    I used the Code Blue filtered pitcher for a while. It selling point is the removal of arsenic from the water. I found out arsenic is not a problem
    in our area so I now depend on the very good GE Culligan filter in my refrigerator. I just replace it every couple of months.

    GE sells a wide range of reverse osmosis filters for under counter and
    on counter uses.

    I have used the Brita pitcher for over 15 years. LOVE IT!

    My first ct, RB Amber, refused to drink tap water. I started buying bottled spring water for him; while I continued to use the tap water for me. My vet said many pets won't drink the water in our city, the chlorine level is just too high, they can smell it.

    After a time, I got the Brita and have used that ever since. It is always in the fridge, full. I empty it to make a pitcher of ice tea, I refill it. I empty it to fill water fountains for the pets, I refill it. So it is always there ready, if I just want a drink of water.

    I don't have the pitcher but a built in spicket in my kitchen faucet. We change the filter every 6 months. It's wonderful!

    I have 2 Brita water filters. I LOVE them! I bought one package of bottled water, and when the bottle's empty I refill it with my brita water. Works wonderfully, and I'm never in short supply (as long as I remember to refill right away, heh).
