Water filters compared in terms of annual cost

The Green Guide has published a cost comparison chart detailing the
annual cost for operating various water filters such as the Pur and
Brita filters. The companies manufacturing these water filters make the
majority of their profits on repeated purchases of replaceable filter
elements, of course, so the annual cost of operating such water filters
is far more important than the up-front cost of buying them. So
what's the verdict? The Brita pitcher is the least expensive water
filter on this chart, with an annual cost of $27. It's a gravity-fed
filter, however, so it's a slow filtering process. It also requires the
use of a separate container that takes up additional counter space.
That's why my favorite filter is the faucet-mounted PUR water filter,
which runs $96 annually. Check the chart yourself to see others.
