When looking at water cooler filters you need to know what’s available and which one will work best for you and the environment in which it’s placed. WaterCoolerFilters.co.uk is an industry leader in water cooler filters and would be pleased to provide you with some initital information on the types of water filters available on the market right now.

Firstly there’s the activated carbon water filters that fit onto the faucet. This type of filter is good because it’s simple and quite inexpenisve. However although it will reduce the chlorine in the water and will improve the taste it won’t remove all of the other contaminants that might be present.

Next there’s the counter top or under sink filters which use active carbon technology together with other forms of filtration, the most common of which is a membrane with tiny holes in it which allows only the smaller substances to go through the filter.  These types of filters reduce most harmful substances that may be found in tap water but can be more expensive than other types of filters because of this.

Then last but not least, there’s the reverse osmosis systems, which seem to remove almost all the contaminants of the water, including the ones our bodies may actually need. The other downside of these filters is that they can be very expensive and usually waste a lot of water while in operation.
