Question from HEG
Hi Debra and readers,
I am trying to identify the best source of drinking water for my family. We live in a highrise so a personal full home filtration system is not feasible. We currently drink spring water out of glass bottles from different brands including Mountain Valley, Saratoga Springs, Aqua Panna, Voss. I am wondering if it is best to continue doing this (and spending lots of money) or if a Brita or other very basic tap filter would suffice and be healthier and more environmentally friendly. I want to drink the cleanest water possible so if that means buying glass-bottled spring water then that is ok, but if the Brita water is just as clean then I will make the switch. thank you.
Debra’s Answer
In my opinion, water from a Brita filter is not as clean as Mountain Valley Spring Water. In addition, filtering tap water is not the same as drinking spring water from a glass bottle.
In my opinion, you’re already doing the best thing for your situation.
