A water filter will improve the taste of your tap water. Unfortunately, the tap water in some areas leaves a lot to be desired. It may have an overabundance of minerals or chlorine, or it might smell like sulfur.
Water filters are available in a variety of sizes and applications.
You can treat all the water in your home with a whole-house filter or simply treat the drinkable water going to your sink and refrigerator. In most cases, the installation is simple. If you aren't sure which line supplies the cold water, try turning on the hot water. Allow the water to heat up, and then feel the pipes under the sink. The pipe that isn't hot is your cold-water supply.
