Additional Filter Options
During this process, our team reviewed more than twenty commercially available drinking water filtration systems. From that evaluation, four systems met our filter criteria.
Although the Tappwater Countertop RO SMR was selected for program distribution, the remaining three systems in our top group also performed well during review and may be good options for households who wish to purchase their own filtration devices.
The Water Machine
Say goodbye to tap water’s chlorine, fluoride, and all of the other harmful chemicals that leach into plastic bottled water. The Water Machine’s all glass water filtration system leaves you with no metallic or plastic taste and helps reduce plastic waste in the environment. The water passes through the purifiers in the upper chamber and is then stored in the lower chamber, which has a three-gallon capacity. Each unit comes with two cutting edge gravity purification elements, which can filter up to 6,000 gallons or last over 10 years if you consume a gallon and a half a day.
