Default Under cabinet systems

Dan, you mentioned an under cabinet water filter system. I'm looking for some kind of system due to having lead in my well water. I've seen some
have a three cartridge system with its own spout and tank. Is there one
out there that the Forum members can suggest to use.

Thanks Dave M

Default three cartridge

I think that is the osmosis sytem. You can't get any better than this. I had an osmosis system with UV for bacteria control and I was very please with this setup. It was only attached to a seperate spigot for drinking and cooking. You would not want to do whole house as the cartridges are EXPENSIVE.

I remember it was a GE brand.

Hi Dave;

There are a million different systems out there. With lead being your water issue, you will need to look at the filter specifics but I know many of them filter lead out like this one... http://www.puriteam.com/products/PUR...r-Filter-.html

Here's another one but I am not sure if it does lead...
http://www.purauv.com/puraundersink.htm

One recommendation is to confirm the amount of lead the filters remove. Just because it says it treats for lead it may not treat for all of it or 99% of it. It may only remove a certain portion that still may be unsafe. Call the manufacturer to confirm then have your water tested after install to ensure it's working properly.

Good luck Dave!

Dan
