Question: I'm thinking about an undersink water filter and have a few questions: - are they worth it?- do they work?- any recommondations or advice on what to avoid?
Answer: Last summer they were repairing the mains on our street and connected us allto a temporary main via rubber hoses during the repair work. The watertasted terrible (like drinking out of a garden hose that sits in the sunall day) I didn't have time to do a lot of research, so I went to Home Depot andgrabbed the mid-priced GE dual-filter undercounter setup (under $100 IIRC).Very happy with it, it took care of the taste/odor problem completely. FWIW, I wouldn't necessarily have 100% faith in the municipal water suppliesanymore - seems to me there are more stories in the news lately about bigscrewups in the distribution systems that cause temporary boil orders, etc
