What’s the filter made out of?

-Tap water gang

Eh, people usually filter water when their tap water isn't clean enough?

Good quality tap water is also filtered and treated, but it happens earlier down the line

I’m working on my lived experience. I’m not going to apologize for paying a shitload of taxes to have tap water I can drink though.

Lucky to have spring water in the tap so no filters :)

What do you think the water lines are made out of?

How old is your house?

My house has copper pipes for the most part but the water main coming to my house is plastic. Older main lines are often steel but as they age and get replaced they're replaced with plastic and in new houses it's mostly PEX/composite pipes aswell.

Yeah I have PEX inside lol. Guess it’s better than lead.
