I have public water and it's loaded with chlorine and tastes like crap. I have a filter under the sink that gets rid of the taste.

I have a whole house water softener and a reverse osmosis filter on my tap water. It is full of lime and calcium and I like not having kidney stones.

My water comes from a well, but I have a filtration system that includes an iron filter, calcium filter and a water softener.

I run the municipal water supply from the tap through my filtered coffee system to kill anything living in  it & filter out any larger chunks of material.

Sounds as though your supply has plenty of impurities. Wise precaution, Smiley.

Someone here mentioned having brown water from the tap on occasion. The same thing has happened here at least 3 times in 6 years. It's scary to find you've been drinking from a water supply that is so unprotected!

True enough, though it should only happen when work is being done on the system, nearby.

That'd work. I used purifications tablets when I was with the Army. It was amazing what you could drink after using those.

I drink filtered water. The water here isn't particularly bad, but I just figure, why not filter it? There were times when they were working on the pipes during home construction the water came out brown. I might as well just filter it every time in case something like that happens.

I have a reverse osmosis system in my house.  The tap here is terrible. I use it to drink, cook, water my plants and for my cat.

Straight tap water.  We're very lucky here in that our water supply is from a fresh water reverse across the bay that is very clean.  I've had tap water from the city before I knew that in some places, tap water needs to be filtered, and it took several mints to get the taste out of my mouth!!!
