Consider The Savings Of a Countertop Water Filter Vs. Bottled Water
September 9th, 2009
When you look at the price of a countertop water filter versus the constant cost of buying bottled water, you will soon realize the huge savings potential. Countertop filters are available at various price points, from very inexpensive (around $50) to a few hundred dollars for high-end models. When you consider a single bottled water can cost $1.50 or more, it is easy to see how even a single month would exceed the cost of an inexpensive filter.
Other savings are just monetary. Drinking water from a countertop filter saves our landfills. Millions of water bottles end up in the trash every year and since they don not deteriorate for many years, they are filling landfill space that is running short these days. Additionally, once a countertop filter is installed, filters can last as long as a year, further reducing your consumption of gasoline in obtaining drinking water.
One other fact that many do not consider is that several bottled waters are nothing more that tap water, lacking the believed benefits of purification or natural minerals. Although some bottled waters contain fewer microflora, when you consider they can be hundreds to thousands of times more expensive than tap water. Considering tap water can be cleaned by a Aquasana countertop water filter for less than $100 a year, the savings is immediately apparent.
