What filtration system are you using for your home drinking water?
Just heard about perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) also known as C8 and we all know about microplastics.
My understanding is filters containing activated carbon or reverse osmosis membranes can be effective at removing PFAS from water supplies and that reverse osmosis is better.
Found theZeroWater 10-Cup 5-Stage Filter. Anyone use this?
Also found Bluevua RO100ROPOT and AQUATru countertop water purifiers that does reverse osmosis.

Nothing too fancy.
Poly filter then RO cartridge then carbon filter.
Just to a small faucet on the kitchen sink for filling a water jug that goes in the fridge.
And use to fill ice cube trays.

And also we use it to make up milk from powdered milk.
Using this filtered water the milk taste better, and does not go sour as fast.

We have ok lake ontario filtered water that tastes ok on its own.

The filter is just a bit of a treat I curb found and installed about 20 years ago.
One new RO module 10 years ago, and the other two filters I swap about once a year.
