I was just curious whether or not water filters will make water taste closer to bottled water? I live in Scotland so the quality of the water is pretty much second to none, but bottled waters still taste a lot better.
thats fish tank and the water filters thru pvc can i glue the outside to help the joint from leaking
I know they even SELL it in stores! Why is the government forcing fluoride down our throats and forcing us to absorb it through our skin, when water filters will not even remove it (except expensive reverse osmosis?!)
If anyone thinks fluoridated water is good for a child, read this…written by American Dental Association….the ONLY people who were advocating for fluoridated water in the first place?!

I am SOO frustrated that my water is fluoridated…it is very bad for adults, too….it is only sometimes good for teeth but nearly always bad for other health.
By the way, water filters really do not filter out fluoride, just chlorine, mold, heavy metals (mercury etc) and bacteria.
I was mortified to find out my filter wasn’t filtering fluoride.
Here in Pennsylvania, there is a bill out to mandate statewide fluoridation!!! My local rep is one of the authors…ugh…I feel so helpless.
Nazi Germany used fluoride to placate German citizens, because it causes hypothyroidism. It may coincide with the U.S. obesity epidemic.
I get something called Mountain Valley Spring Water from Arkansas in glass bottles. I sure hope it’s not fluoridated! (I am pretty sure it’s not.)
I am looking to find a water filter that uses reverse osmosis, alkaline filtration, and UV sterilization all in one system that can be installed for use with my kitchen sink tap water.
Do you know of any water filters that fit this description?
how long do i have to keep boiling water for my son’s formula? he’s 4 1/2 months old and he only has a bottle of formula like once a day usually but we’re moving and he’s going to spend the night with my aunt so i want to make it as easy as possible for her…should i have her boil the water? she has one of those separate water filters…not a brita or anything, its like connected to her sink…
Ok, so I need a science project. I found some stuff online about creating a homemade hydrogen fuel cell, but would that be too complicated for an eigth grade science project?
If it is not too complicated, I was thinking I could expand on the topic by experimenting with water filters. Is pure water needed for a homemade hydrogen fuel cell, or can you use dirty water?
Any opinions on good water filters for showers? I’ve read that most shower filters are a waste of money since the filtration process doesn’t do very well when the water being filtered is warm or hot water…
Another question: I don’t drink tap water (use bottled water) but I obviously take showers in tap water…if there WAS something dangerous in my water, would the harmful effects matter if I’m just showering in it and not drinking it?
Thanks a lot
Turns out this refrigerator is a Whirlpool and a phone call to them provided the answer. No, Pur makes no recyclable water filters but is developing one for the future. It’s a shame because it is a huge plastic cylinder. However, I will also call Waste Management to get their confirmation as our trash and recycle materials collector.
In Drinking Water filters –
whats the difference of "reverse osmosis" and "ion exchange filter"
and what do each do?
How stupid can people be? I suppose soda and fruit juices are a much better choice of beverage for your kids. Doesn’t anyone realize that if your kids are brushing their teeth everyday with a fluoride toothpaste that they’re getting plenty of daily decay protection. I would rather give my kids bottled water, then the stuff coming out of the faucet, god only knows what could be in that. I suppose I could just attached water filters at every sink in the house.
I’m pretty sure it’s a reverse osmosis system, the type with the separate faucet over the sink that dispenses filtered water.
I would really like us to be able to use it, but ever since we bought this house 8 months ago, we haven’t known whether it’s safe to use, and have no idea who to call to inspect it. I don’t think a plumber would have any idea about water filters, would they?
Household water filters like Brita. And radiation like from uranium reactors that have been exploded 
Thanks, and please no silly comments like "radiation isn’t going to hurt us."
((((Dylan))) It’s nice to see you too! 
I have one of those water filters you fill then out in the fridge, and theres always black little pepples on the top part that sometimes goes into my water when you poor, is that safe and what are they?
Looking for a good water filter that removes impurities from the tap water and makes better healthier drinking water. I am not happy with bottled water and some of the water filters that are available in the market. I drink well water and I heard well water may contain arsenic. So, I need a filter that removes common impurities, bacterias and arsenic. Any suggestions?
