Are under-sink filtration systems hard to install?
This Mist under-sink filtration system is an affordable way to DIY filter water that comes from your tap. The installation process is uncomplicated and can be completed by anyone with two basic tools in a matter of minutes.
How do I install my Mist Under-Sink Water Filtration System?
Does an under-sink water filter work for hot and cold water?
The Mist under-sink water filter only filters cold water.
Are under-sink water filters cost-effective?
Yes, under-sink water filters are cost-effective in the long run due to their long lifespan.
The average American household uses 27 gallons of tap water a day (according to watercalculator.org). Filtering 27 gallons of water daily can be costly if the incorrect mechanism is utilized. The Mist under-sink filtration system will effectively filter up to 20,000 gallons of water, providing about two years of clean tap water at less than 10 cents a day, making our under-sink filtration system the most cost-effective way to filter water.
Are under-sink filtration systems eco-friendly?
Yes, under-sink water systems can be eco-friendly as they reduce the need for bottled water, which can create plastic waste.
Does this under-sink water filter work for well water?
We don’t recommend using well water as a source due to its complicated composition. If you are using well water before installing the system, ensure that the feed water has passed through a prefiltration system otherwise large particles may clog the filter and shorten the filter life.
Does the filtered water come through a different spout?
No, this system connects to your cold-water line and filters directly through your tap.
Under sink water filtration systems vs reverse osmosis filtration systems
Under-sink water filter systems use filters to remove contaminants from water, while reverse osmosis systems use a membrane to filter impurities heavy metals and bacteria. RO systems are generally more effective but can be more expensive and produce more wastewater than under-sink filter systems.
