Pur home water filters offer an easy way to get clean, better-tasting tap water from home that will improve your day to day lifestyle and that of your family.

Beware even bottled water ... this information for www.epa.gov/safewater website
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates bottled water used for drinking. While most consumers assume that bottled water is at least as safe as tap water, there are still potential risks. Although required to meet the same safety standards as public water supplies, bottled water does not undergo the same testing and reporting as water from a treatment facility. Water that is bottled and sold in the same state may not be subject to any federal standards at all. Those with compromised immune systems may want to read bottled water labels to make sure more stringent treatments have been used, such as reverse osmosis, distillation, UV radiation, or water filtration by an absolute 1 micron filter. Check with NSF International to see if your bottled water adheres to FDA and international drinking water standards. The International Bottled Water Association can also provide information on which brands adhere to even more stringent requirements.
So you can see more reasons why a home point of use (POU ... localized water filter unit) or even POE (point of entry or whole house water filter) should be obtained.
