5 Things You MUST Do When Buying A Water Filter

1) Don’t listen to sales pitches!The moment that direct-sales guy knock on your door or answers the phone, keep in mind it is BS o’clock. They have big incentives to say ANYTHING they need to say to get the sale.

2) Get specifications, test results and characteristics of systems IN WRITING. Preferably, a company brochure/spec sheet where they cannot write inaccurate or misleading information (especially filter size, capacity and material of components).

3) Test your water to get an idea of what sort of system you will require (especially hardness and iron). As this can greatly influence the price of a system.Chlorine drops (pink reagents) are useless and should not be taken into consideration when buying a water filter.

4) Ask for warranty on the systems, certifications and REAL origin of components (like housings and filters). Just because the plastic cover is made in Australia, it doesn’t mean the filter is Australian Made.

5) Cross-check the information given with a quick Google search. Compare specifications, not sales pitches.Make a decision, and enjoy PURE drinking water!
