How does filtered water compare to bottled water?
In a direct gallon-for-gallon price comparison, filtered water is a fraction of the cost of bottled water. Reduce Waste: Filtered water reduces waste; instead of disposing bottle after bottle, you only dispose the self-contained filter cartridge. For example, a 200-gallon DuPont™ Faucet Mount Water Filter Cartridge replaces more than 1200 20-oz water bottles; bottles that may otherwise end up in landfills. Using filtered water at home helps reduce the need for the 41 billion plastic bottles sold every year. Certified: Not all bottled water is the same. You don’t always know the source of bottled water and you may not even know if it has been tested or certified. DuPont™ Water Filters have been independently tested and certified to reduce contaminants, and as a result help to improve the taste and quality of your water – all within the convenience of your own home. Convenient: Unlike bottled water, DuPont™ Water Filters allow you to conveniently enjoy quality, great tasting water direct
