Depending on what contaminants are in your water, there are different water filter systems and filter cartridge combinations that should fit your requirements. Here is a brief description of these systems.
Canister or Pitcher filters have become hugely popular over recent years, and are the simplest type of water filter. They’re appealing because they appear to be cheap, but in the long term they are not only expensive due to the short life of the filters, but are also the least effective water filter systems. So you end up paying a lot for very little gain.

Faucet or Counter Top filters are simply water filters that can be very easily attached to a faucet of your choice. They are simple screw on attachments so are easy to install and remove. These water filter systems only filter the water supply coming through the faucet that they are attached to. The water filter cartridges can be single or multi, depending on your requirements.
Under sink water filter systems are pretty much the same as faucet or counter top filters with the exception that they are out of sight. They offer the same benefits and options, and can also be installed easily.
Shower filters can be attached in no time at all and are designed to remove abrasive elements that can be found in tap water. This can be very beneficial to people who suffer from skin conditions and breathing problems.
Whole house water filters offer the optimum water filter system by being attached to your incoming mains water supply. The advantage of this is that all your homes water is filtered and fresh for drinking and bathing. However unlike the other water filter systems this one does require a qualified plumber to be installed.
