The following chart compares the cost of a Multi-Pure Stainless Steel below-sink filtration unit (for a household of 3 or more) with the cost of bottled water. Note the substantial savings that can be achieved over a very short period of time while you also have the piece of mind that comes from knowing your water is in fact being filtered.
The purchase of a home water filter should be viewed as a long term investment. A quality filtration system will last for many years with periodic filter cartridge changes being the only ongoing cost.
If you are now drinking bottled water, you could save more than 90% each year (after the initial purchase) with a Multi-Pure filter. And the solid carbon block Multi-Pure Drinking Water System will provide cleaner, more refreshing water conveniently at your fingertips all the time. Your water is treated as you need it for drinking, ice, cooking, food preparation, etc., not days, weeks, or even months before.
Compare the cost of bottled water with the cost of a healthier, non-polluting Multi-Pure Drinking Water System:

1. Based on the USDA 1194-96 Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals (CSFII), the average ingestion of water is 0.951 litres/person/day (0.251 gallons/person/day). From this it can be determined that an average household of 4 people would consume approximately 367 gallons of water per year (0.251 gallons/person/day x 4 people x 365 days/year).
2. The average cost of bottled water in the U.S. is $1.20 / gallon.
