Tap Water

[jack sparrow]

Just stick your head under the faucet and dont worry about it.

Filters will remove odors and sediment but won't do a lot for chemicals in solution.

True, the radioactive treatment isn't helping me either....but when I get MAD...WATCH OUT!

Really I guess you should tell that to CDC because according to them

Boiling is by far the most reliable method to make water of uncertain purity safe for drinking. Water should be brought to a vigorous rolling boil for 1 minute and allowed to cool to room temperature; ice should not be added. This procedure will kill bacterial and parasitic causes of diarrhea at all altitudes and viruses at low altitudes. To kill viruses at altitudes >2,000 m (6,562 ft), water should be boiled for 3 minutes or chemical disinfection should be used after the water has boiled for 1 minute. Adding a pinch of salt to each quart or pouring the water several times from one clean container to another will improve the taste.

Those are organics, not chemicals. Thanks for keeping up.

True To remove the chemical you have to disinfect it with iodine. But yet according to cdc is better to boil tap water than drinking it straight from the faucet.

I have a Pur Filter for the kitchen water and another on the shower to remove chlorine.

I drink up to two gallons of water a day in the summer, I truly cannot STAND the taste of tap water, filtered or not. I drink spring water.

I just use PUR filter that screws onto the faucet.

That's how Culligan water is filtered . A little more expensive than your standard in-line faucet filter.
