It’s important to know what type of water filter is best for your home and the water that you consume. There are many types of filters out there, including reverse osmosis, carbon block, and ultraviolet light. You should know which one is right for you before making a purchase.

Reverse osmosis removes contaminants such as lead and nitrate from tap water but it also takes away beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium.

Carbon block works by removing chlorine taste and odor plus other organic chemicals like herbicides and pesticides while still retaining healthy minerals like potassium, sodium, sulfur, manganese, and magnesium.

Ultraviolet water filters send out a UV light that kills bacteria and other microbes in the water. This type of filter is effective against viruses, including hepatitis A and rotavirus, but it’s not quite as thorough as reverse osmosis or carbon block

In general, all three types of filtration are effective at removing different contaminants depending on the specific model.
