Our tap water isn’t great. Also want a completely zero-plastic solution. What do you do for your water?
We use a reverse osmosis water filter for our house and it works great. The canisters are usually aluminum and the tubing is typically silicone.
If there’s a better type of home filter I don’t know it it.
But why don’t you want microplastics? It’s what plants crave!
It’s got electrolytes
Whatever you choose, make sure you test the water with an electronic TDS meter. They are about the price of a coffee and will tell you whether your filter is working properly.
Aren’t those acually useless when trying to determine the quality of water?
It can tell you the purity based on the conductance of the water. It might not catch everything but it’s good to verify the filter is working.
My stainless-steel countertop water distiller. Although the water passes through a short bit of plastic tubing, it is at best lukewarm when it does so. I don’t worry as much about plastic contamination as I would with anything else.
I just boil it, & let it cool.
Gets minerals, chlorine, all sorts of stuff out.
If you’ve got someone excessively-fragile, with some medical-condition that makes 'em that way, use Zero Water filters: they are costly, damn-thorough, and amazing, when you can’t drink anything else.
