Do you guys use water filters?

[pack1]

I use the faucet mounted Brita water filters but Ive already bought two within a year and the second one just broke on me, this time the stupid cheap plastic nozzle broke apart when I unscrewed it (was leaking). Anyone know of better ones out there, the cheaper the better of course but Im willing to pay alot more if it can last at least a few years.

I did use one for about 2 yrs, but the filter itself was expensive to replace and it just became a hassle being in the way all the time. So I went back to regular ol' faucet water.

Not the case in NYC or it could be just my apartment building. I unscrewed the nozzle (new 3 months ago) and it was completely clogged and brown. Once in awhile, luckily not too often you can actually see a brown tint to the water

I have a filter before it comes into the house.

I've got a water line connected to the fridge which has a built-in water filter. Mmmm foofoo water and a constant supply of ice without stupid ice trays

Reverse osmosis unit at my house, have a straight R/O faucet on kitchen sink, and have it plumbed into my fridge where it hits another charcoal filter for tasteless ice & cold water.

I've got a sediment pre-filter and a regular floss filter down on the outlet of my 1500 gal holding tank for my house. Don't bother to filter in the house usually. We have good well water.

We've got reverse osmosis that is hooked up to the fridge so we normally get water from that rather than tap...

..I use the Brita Pitcher filter. Gets rid of the clorine smell.

I have a sediment filter and a treatment filter (acidity) out at the well. Under the sink and going to both refrigerators, I have a two stage string filter that goes to a separate spigot on the sink.

I would like to have a whole house filter, but just haven't gotten around to it. at the moment I have a brita tub/pitcher (the one with the spout)

edit: I do have an inline filter for my ice maker.

I use a PuR on sink filter, gets rid of the nasty taste of the water here.

I do it somewhat for taste, but also for the lead pipes (both our house pipes and some of the city pipes)
