We know how important it is to keep your water clean and safe without emptying your wallet. That’s why we’ve got you covered with this guide to finding the perfect home water filtration system that won’t break the bank. From bottled coolers to bottleless countertop wonders to undersink gems, we’ll explore affordable options that ensure your water stays crisp and refreshing.
Are water filtration systems worth it?
If you’ve been relying on plain tap water for your hydration needs, it might be time to reconsider your approach. The best home water filtration system will offer a plethora of advantages beyond what basic tap water provides. By efficiently eliminating harmful contaminants like chlorine, lead, pesticides, and other impurities, these systems not only enhance the safety of your drinking water but also improve its taste, odor, and clarity.
But the big question remains: are the benefits worth the investment? We firmly believe they are – and so does the Environmental Working Group.
The Cost Benefit of Filtered Water
A typical family of four drinks between 16 and 32 gallons of water a week, or approximately 830 to 1250 gallons a year. Standard water bottle delivery services charge $7 for one 5-gallon bottle of filtered water, which translates into $1162 to $2331 per year in bottled water delivery costs.
On the other hand, although it requires an initial investment, a filtration system can deliver the same or more filtered water for a fraction of the price, primarily because the only operating expenses are the cost of the replacement filters.
For instance, the RO Membrane Filter for the Brio AQUUS TROE800COL system retails for $249.99 and provides 1,900 gallons of purified water before it needs to be replaced. In other words, one RO Membrane Filter provides approximately 30% to 100% more filtered water than a year’s worth of delivered bottled water, and for approximately one-fifth to one-tenth of the cost. Even with the additional cost of a prefilter, like the Brio PCB 3-Stage Filter ($109.99), the cost-savings are massive.
What are the long-term benefits of water filtration systems?
Another big question you may have is: how much is a water filtration system? While Brio offers a wide range of affordable water filtration options, it’s essential to consider their long-term value.
Whilst Brio’s bottled coolers, bottleless coolers, and countertop coolers bring excellent value, convenience and additional features (hot water, ice etc), we’re here to specifically talk about undersink filtration systems.
Undersink Filtration Systems
While the initial undersink filtration system cost might seem higher, it does offer incredible long-term value. With an undersink filtration system, you can enjoy:
· a cost-effective and long-term solution
· high-quality, purified water directly from the faucet
· no replacement bottles
· safe, clean drinking water for your entire family
With their superior filtration capabilities and minimal maintenance requirements, the best water filtration system provides consistent, high-quality water for years. Ultimately, investing in an undersink filtration system offers unparalleled value and peace of mind.
