Essentially, when you\u2019re drinking water that\u2019s been through a filter, you can be sure that it\u2019s clean and pure, it will also taste better, hopefully encouraging you to drink more.<\/p>\n<p>How do water filters work?<\/p>\n<p>There are two types of filters: chemical and physical. Physical filters sieve out large particles and chemical filters use an active material to get rid of them.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, each method on their own isn\u2019t 100 per cent effective when removing pollutants, that\u2019s why a lot of filters use a combined method approach.<\/p>\n<p>What types of integrated water filtration systems are there?<\/p>\n<p>There are a few options to choose from, ranging from water jugs to whole house systems. If you\u2019re looking to add value to your home, it\u2019s best to install something that is permanent such as filtered water taps, under bench water filter system, bath and shower filter, or a whole house system:<\/p>\n<p>Benchtop water filters: Small and stylish, compact and powerful, they\u2019re the most cost effective and economical. However, they\u2019ll be in plain sight so if you\u2019re looking to keep the wow factor in your kitchen, this probably isn\u2019t the best solution.<\/p>\n<p>Undersink water filters: Hidden out of plain sight, undersink water filters won\u2019t ruin the look of your kitchen and put off any potential buyers.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, they could add to the wow factor if used with a stylish, all singing, all dancing tap i.e. a hot, cold, ambient, and sparkling combination.<\/p>\n<p>Bath and shower filters: Your body is a temple, your skin the walls, installing a bath and shower filter can remove more than 90 per cent of the chlorine which will do wonders for both your skin and hair.<\/p>\n<p>Whole house water filters: We often just think of filtered water as something you drink but that\u2019s not true. In fact, you can filter all the water throughout your house, this means that whether you\u2019re drinking, washing your clothes, rinsing your salad leaves, or taking a bath, you can be sure the water you\u2019re using is pure and it may even help your appliances last that little bit longer as residue is less likely to build up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WITH VIEW.COM.AU If you\u2019re renovating or thinking of selling, or perhaps you just want to make some upgrades to your home, there are certain quick fixes that will help to add value to your home and adding a water filtration system is one of them.
