So, how much? For a decent setup—installation, a mid-range carbon filter, and a year of filters—expect to spend $1,000 to $2,000. For top-of-the-line with all the bells, whistles, and a reverse osmosis tank? That’s $3,500 to $6,000.
Is it worth it? If you’re tired of buying bottled water, scrubbing rust stains off your toilet, or listening to your ice maker complain, yes. It’s the unsung hero of your home. Your dishwasher will work better. Your skin will feel softer. Your spouse will think you’re a wizard.
And the best part? You’ll never have to smell that sulfuric egg odor again. That alone is worth the price of admission. Go forth, filter friends. Your pipes are waiting.
