Best Water Filter Buying Guide | How to Choose a Water Filter
✅ This video is your ultimate guide to choosing the right water treatment system for your home.
We'll walk you through a step-by-step process, considering factors like your water source, contaminants of concern, budget, and more. Learn about different treatment technologies and popular water filter types like reverse osmosis, under-sink filters, and whole-house systems and how to choose which is best for your unique situation.
Here are the steps to choose a water filter:
Understand your water:
- Determine your water source (city water vs well water)
- Get your water tested by a certified lab (optional but recommended)
Determine your "why" for filtering:
- Improve taste
- Remove specific contaminants for health reasons
- Protect your plumbing from damaging contaminants
- Have peace of mind in case of emergencies
Determine proper treatment:
- Application: Point-of-use (single faucet) or Point-of-entry (whole house)
- Treatment Technology: Choose based on your water test results and why you're filtering (e.g. reverse osmosis, carbon adsorption)
Consider different water filtration system types:
- Countertop systems (pitchers, distillers, ROs)
- Under-sink systems (higher capacity, multiple stages)
- Faucet-mounted filters
- Refrigerator filters
- Shower and bath filters
- Whole-house systems
Important considerations when choosing a system:
- Certifications (NSF, WQA, IAMPO) for contaminant removal
- Capacity/Lifespan of filters (replacement costs)
- Flow Rate (important for point-of-entry systems)
- Construction Materials & Design Quality
- System Footprint (dimensions) & Portability
- Filter Changes (ease of replacement, availability)
- Environmental Impact (wastewater production)
- Guarantee & Warranty
- Cost Considerations (upfront, installation, maintenance)
- Installation Considerations (DIY vs professional)
- Smart Features (optional - filter reminders, app connectivity)

Is Clearly Filtered the Ultimate Water Filter Pitcher for Contaminant Free Water?
Discover how Clearly Filtered excels in reducing contaminants of concern, achieving a significant reduction in fluoride, uranium, and other harmful substances. Although its filtration system is highly effective, the presence of cobalt post-filtration impacted its final rating.

PSA: Don't Overtighten Your #Berkey PF2 Fluoride Filters!
Ever wonder if you can tighten your Berkey PF-2 filters too much? The answer is YES! Overtightening can damage the internal screen and lead to leaks of activated alumina media.
In our lab test, we found that overtightened PF-2 filters leached this media into the filtered water. See the full test video here: https://youtu.be/AVZmZwTxnMc

How to make a DIY Water Filter SHORT
Brian explains how to make a DIY water filter using everyday materials!
Perfect for camping trips, survival situations, or even a fun science project with the kids, this homemade filter uses multiple layers of filtration medial to remove impurities from water.
Whether you're looking for a practical skill or a fun DIY project, this video offers a valuable lesson in water filtration and resourcefulness.
Materials List:
- A plastic bottle
- Knife
-Gravel of different sizes
-Sand, both fine and coarse, if possible
-Cotton, bandana, sock, or similar
-And activated charcoal
What How to Build It:
1. First step is to cut off the bottom third or so of the bottle. Flip the top of the bottle upside down and place it in the bottom for stability.
2. Now, we'll add all the filter materials, starting from the bottom: First we need to add a material that will hold everything else above it. If you have it, cotton balls work great. But if you’re in a survival situation anything made of cloth like a bandana or even a sock will work just fine
3. Next break down the charcoal into small pieces using a hammer or a rock. We want these to be as small as we can get them, ideally pea sized or smaller. Then add the charcoal on top of your first layer
4. Next, add a layer of sand, the finer, smaller grains the better. Then add a layer of coarse sand on top of the fine sand if you can find it
5. Finally, pour in the gravel, leaving about an inch of space at the top. Just like with the sand, if you can get a couple layers of different sized gravel all the better.

Laboratory Quality Assurance Disclaimer
Like all water test results (indeed, all lab testing), results are subject to variabilities and inaccuracies that Tap Score works to understand, limit, and explain.

100% Contaminant Removal Rates Disclaimer
A 100% removal rate means there are no contaminant detections above the MDL (Method Detection Limit). The MDL is the lowest concentration of a given analyte for which the laboratory is confident in claiming per each contaminants detection (ie. how low the instruments can measure down to with confidence).
