Reverse osmosis systems aren’t cheap—expect to spend anywhere from $150 to $500 for a decent one. That’s less than a week of fancy coffee, and it lasts for years. You’ll also change filters every 6 to 12 months, which costs about as much as a pizza night.
But think about what you’re not buying anymore: bottled water, flavor drops you add to mask the taste, and those expensive “alkaline” waters from the health food store. Your wallet will feel lighter—in a good way.
Plus, you’re kicking plastic bottles to the curb. Every time you fill up your reusable bottle from that dedicated faucet, you’re basically giving a high-five to the planet. Pretty cool, right?
