Dr Oz on Home Water Filters

Just recently on Oct. 20th, 2009, Dr Oz did a segment on water quality showcasing some options for filtering your water.  This is a great primer for understanding why home water filters, including a quality shower filter, are critical for the health of you and your family.

Home Water Filters Comparison

Given this is only a 7 minute segment, Dr Oz is unable to explore in detail some of the other water filtration solutions on the market.  He covers filters representative of top consumer brands such as Pur, Aquasana, and Reverse Osmosis.  While these are quality filters, they do lack some filtration capabilities, and their yearly costs are significantly higher than a basic Berkey water filter.  I’ve gone ahead and created a berkey water filter comparison chart to stack up some of the more common and highly advertised water filters such as Pur, Aquasana, and Brita filters to our own Berkey filter.  In a follow-up post, I will go into a more detailed analysis on this comparison.

    I love your berkey water filter comparison chart. To me, there is no comparison at all. The berkey is far superior. Price isn’t my main concern. Health is.

    If a water filter can keep out aluminum, pathogenic bacteria, arsenic and fluoride, then cost isn’t an issue. It’s a real big bonus that the Berkey’s are affordable.
