Will this filter take water you wouldn't normally drink and filter it into drinkable water?

You might be interested in a Berkey gravity filter set-up instead of this one. This will filter out the fluoride taste from tap water and catch particulates if you have them, but not much else. It did a pretty good job for us for the 15 days we had it installed until it started spraying water underneath the sink.

It depends on what you wouldn't normally drink. If you mean tap water that has too much chlorine or well water that has too much gravel, yes, it will filter out odor and tastes you don't want. I use one in my kitchen for drinking water as my city water is heavily chlorinated. My sister uses one at her house because her well water is a bit muddy. It works for both of us.

I have city water and it's loaded with bleach andIt removed all oder and it tastes just like the bottle water we buy. Go to there Web site and you will see what it does. I'm very happy with it. Hope this helps.

Yes but if you have hard water it might cause build up in your machine. We used filtered water or bottled water.

Might be suggested but I would believe no...we started with filtered water...than just used tap. Albeit our tap is descaled and softened.

I never had any reason to fill it more than what fits below, so don't know. I don't know if the filter would float, but you would be mixing the waters.

No, it will not filter water but it is a very good particulate filter.I use this filter just upstream of my water separating filter.

I am not qualify to answer that question, I live in the country side of FL and we have well water. My coffee maker calls for filtered water and I used for that.

Hello Jorge, it filters the water on the fly. Simply fill your container from any tap, stream, river or lake, even in third world countries, and enjoy safe, clean drinking water straight away.

As far as I've learned, the waste water is equivalent to tap water. So I would say yes. In fact it may even be better because the filtered water has no micro nutrients (mag/iron etc) which are beneficial to plants needs.

hi lynn,k ..as long as its not into the filtered water its ok. they are tiny carbon pieces that filter the water.

Yes, but watch your filter pressure as the iron particles may accumulate and clog the filter.

very little unusual taste on the treated water and i don't think there is enough contaminates for it to be filtered. if you see anything bulk in the water, then by all means go ahead and filter it.

Its gonna depend on how bad the water is that your putting in it to be filtered. I bought one, and I wish I hadnt. It leakes, and doesn't hold very much water. I'm constantly refilling it.

The unit will work without a filter and does not have one. I have connected my reverse osmosis system to the dispenser. It works great. If a reverse osmosis system is not available, an in line carbon filter will do just fine for drinking water. This filter can be very inexpensive. I will be glad to help if you have any other questions. FPROPLUMBING@GMAIL.COM

I can't say that I've ever tried it on an application such as that, but I believe it will work. I am unaware of any filters that would need to be changed. I highly recommend this product.

Not really. I think what you want is a particulate filter or reverse osmosis for that issue.

Yes, just make sure you don't use it for coffee too otherwise your water will taste like coffee.

Of course, just screw the filter off then its a regular water bottle..you can also screw it back on when you need your filter.
