The right solution is installing a reverse osmosis filter system (which includes mechanical and charcoal filters) at the house or tap level. Water's not one of those things people should cheap out on. We, as a society, can afford to not have this be an issue. We're not quite to that realization yet.
To be clear: I'm not saying the burden of cost should be solely put on renters/homeowners.
- Cd00d 5y agoCan you go into this in a bit of detail? I thought reverse osmosis water wasn't great to drink, because it's essentially de-ionized water. So, the water has no choice but to rip ions out of your cells. But, I've never looked into biology enough to understand. I did work in a lab back in the day where one of the students was filling his water bottle from the DI tap, because he preferred the taste. He didn't drop dead or anything. I clearly have just enough of the details to not understand.

- cryptoquick 5y agoSome RO systems include an alkalinization / re-mineralization stage. I use this one: https://www.expresswater.com/pages/ro-alkaline-uv https://www.expresswater.com/pages/ro-alkaline-uv
