Our tap water isn’t great. Also want a completely zero-plastic solution. What do you do for your water?
We use a reverse osmosis water filter for our house and it works great. The canisters are usually aluminum and the tubing is typically silicone.
If there’s a better type of home filter I don’t know it it.
Most use plastic filters and filter housings. I’ve never seen one that didn’t use plastic before.
Where I live I’ve got perfectly good tap water, but in general you want a charcoal filter.
I know some people who have well water and they use something like that.
Unfortunately I don’t know that you’re going to get effective filters that have no plastic due to it being too cost effective for a disposable component.
You can’t use paper or cardboard because it’s water permeable, and metal would drive up the price of the filter drastically.
I’ve been happy with Epic Water, it filters PFAS. Filters are pricey but can last longer than they say
Epic is the only solution that didn’t need a plumber that gets the toxic stuff that’s in my water out, some kind of probably common pesticide or herbicide at like 50x the EPA limit. You can taste and feel the difference. They seem really good. And you never know what’s in that water before hand.
But why don’t you want microplastics? It’s what plants crave!
I’ve been looking for exactly the same thing. Sadly most filters I found are made of plastic, which I find outrageous.
