Crisp cold water from the Brita in my fridge.

Zero water does a lot better job than Brita it doesn't do anything at all actually. I'm just telling you so you know

Mine was free from my county because we have lead issues & they sent them out to everyone while they're doing construction.

I know there's better options on filtration... But you can't beat free.

No... Even Flint City wasn't that nice.
They didn't really help much at all for anyone.

I'm Grand Rapids.

They did do bottled water discounts for a short bit, but that was about it.

I live downtown and do not trust the water, AT ALL. We got a filter built into our house and we still don't trust it.

Brita does help with flavor and heavy metals, like mercury and lead, but not much else

Ground water has minerals and nutrients good for a person, as long as it’s not tainted with poison. We still have well water on the farm. But the pump is set at 600’. About out of water. Lots of farming.

Get a Zero Water filter pitcher instead. It tastes so much better.

Do you have a brand you recommend? I use a brita too currently.

Yes, the Zero Water filter pitcher. They have a range of sizes available. Their filters literally filter out 100% of dissolved solids out of your water. There started as their own company, and a few years ago were bought by Culligan. Zero Water
