After lot of research, I bought a water treatment system which is treating water very well, which is used for drinking, and cooking purposes. Let me know if any of you is looking to have a great water system at your home which is available with above, and below faucet options.
I'm curious where you get great tasting tap water in CC. My tap water is crap, tasting of lots of chlorine chemicals, I'm sure it is safe, it just tastes like crap. I installed a RO filter under the sink to get drinkable water in the kitchen. At least my coffee doesn't taste like the bottom of the city swimming pool.
Water districts here stopped using Chlorine years ago because the water tasted like swimming pool water.
We had giardia outbreak back in the 80's here, that's when the chlorine went in. I'm on a well now so it don't matter. I'm pretty sure by law in PA if you are serving X amount of people you need to chlorinate. My Uncle was part of an association and their well served perhaps 30 or 40 homes, they had to put in the chlorine and there wasn't single person happy about it becsue there well water was fantastic.
When we lived in town we used cotton and them carbon filters, that worked well for most of the taste.
I can't do tapwater it tastes terrible...well not terrible, but it definitely has that tap "taste" to it. I just get bottled water :P $2.99 for 35 bottles at Food Liob.
There are numerous types of water filters you can use to filter tap water. At my home I use a GE filter system that is mounted on the cabinet under the sink, and the spout through a hole on the counter by the sink (granite counter). Students at the local university use pitcher-type Brita filters.
