Consider the Per Gallon Cost of Water Filter Systems

When researching the cost of water filter systems, it's a good idea to break your cost comparisons down into the smallest possible component. In the long run, the most important issue regarding the cost of water filtration is how much each gallon of filtered water your family uses will cost. It's a good idea to narrow your choices to those brands and model filters that effectively remove chlorine, lead, and other common and dangerous contaminants, and then compare usage cost on a gallon by gallon basis.
