Many households in Romania buy bottled water out of habit: 5-6 liter cans carried weekly from the supermarket, plastic bottles that accumulate on the balcony and a cost that, added up over an entire year, becomes surprisingly high. The alternative is a water filter mounted directly on the tap or under the sink, which transforms tap water into clean drinking water, available at any time.
Long-term cost
Bottled water is charged per liter, indefinitely. A water filter is purchased once, and then only the filter cartridge is replaced periodically. For a family that cooks and drinks water daily, the cost difference becomes noticeable in the first year: after the initial purchase, the only recurring expense is the replacement cartridge, which is usually replaced once a year, depending on consumption and local water quality.
Everyday comfort
With a filter installed in the kitchen, drinking water is always on tap: no more carrying water bottles, no more running out of water on Sunday evenings and no more need for storage space. For cooking, tea, coffee or baby's bottle, filtered water is instantly available, in the quantity you need.
Taste and smell
Tap water is drinkable, but the chlorine used for disinfection often changes its taste and smell. Activated carbon filters retain chlorine and taste-impairing impurities, making water pleasant to drink and keeping coffee and tea true to their original flavor.
Environmental impact
Every plastic bottle you buy adds to the waste. A single family can generate hundreds of plastic containers a year just for drinking water. A water filter almost completely eliminates this waste: the same cartridge filters thousands of liters before needing to be replaced.
Which filter to choose?
For most homes, a above-counter filter is the simplest solution: it can be installed in a few minutes on the kitchen tap, without any installation work. If you prefer the filter not to be visible, a under sink filter provides the same result, with a separate tap for filtered water. And where the water has more serious problems, a system reverse osmosis offers the highest degree of purification.
