I used to live in a home supplied by a well and had a service that would bring me purified water and one of those coolers in the kitchen.
It was all very nice, except.. now I live in a subdivision that is connected to city water. It is nice clean water, however, after being spoiled by bottled water being delivered, I really can taste the chlorine in my tap water (thank you cryptosporidium, you've got this town living in fear since you showed up).
So, I've been shopping around for water filters and I found that a whole-house water filtration system isn't much more expensive than an under-counter system.
Does anyone have any experience with whole-house filters? Are they a pain to maintain? Does your water pressure go down as the filter gets full?
There shouldn't be much to filter, I basically just want to get rid of the chlorine taste to my water.
