Need a Good Water Filtering System for a Rental

April 25, 2022 9:38 PM

Looking for a way to purify the water in my rental, but when the time comes to move, I can easily take the system with me. No, not Brita, Berkey and not Aquapur or anything that comes in a pitcher or gravity feed tank or container. Looking for a Reverse Osmosis system that hooks up to the water pipes but is also easily dismantled. Must be proven (!) to remove all toxins, chloride, pesticides, fluoride and heavy metals. Can work on any technology except for electricity.

Maybe something like this Express Water filtration kit from Home Depot. You may need the 600 version to filter heavy metals.

As long as you can locate the incoming source pipe and it's the 1 inch standard hose, it should hook up to the system. Find someone who'd install it for you, but you also want them to thread the lengths they cut and add some fittings so they can be put back into place.

This Claryum countertop model attaches to the tap and looks to be easy to install and remove.
