Best Water Filters & Shopping Tips

You may be helping a lot of people to save money and keep healthy by answering and share your experience using Brita filters.

I found that Brita Filter replacement cartridges and similar products are extremely expensive. Not mention if you have to pay for the water+sewage as well in your monthly utility bill.

1. Is it good for pregnant woman to drink water filtered by brita instead of buying bottled/distilled water?
2. Is brita filter cartridge contains only activated carbon, what are the white/cream particles inside?
3. Is it easy to regenerate just by boiling it, or you have to reactivate the carbon by baking or burning it?
4. Can you replace the carbon with regular activated carbon (with the same particle size)?

on Aqua tech filters there’s this brownish fish net type stuff that the water goes through after going through the filter cartridge, after that it goes back into the tank

after several times of removing it and cleaning it, it starts to wear out and get holes. I can’t seem to find a replacement anywhere. anyone have any ideas
