Three questions. A sensible starting point.

Not a medical recommendation or a claim that you need RO. This quick tool helps narrow a shortlist based on your practical requirements.

Step 1 of 3

Can you connect a system beneath the sink?

Is instant hot filtered water important?

What is the main reason you're shopping?

Reality check: If you have an issue with tap-water colour, smell or a supply warning, check your water supplier or a relevant professional before choosing a filter. For most UK mains-water users, a drinking-water filter isn't required for health protection.
