A black water filter tap is an easy way to add a stylish touch to your kitchen. It is available in a variety of finishes to match your existing kitchen designs. This tap can be used with your choice of under sink water filter systems.
Water filters can reduce a wide range of contaminants, from volatile organic compounds (such as benzene and formaldehyde) to heavy metals (like lead, arsenic, and mercury). But it’s important to choose a model that is certified to remove the specific chemicals you’re concerned about. You can do this by requesting a Consumer Confidence Report from your water utility or using the Environmental Working Group’s database, which lists drinking-water quality by zip code and city.
The best countertop models (like our top pick, the ZeroWater Classic) have a dual-compartment design that enables water to pour while the upper part of the filter is still processing. Some also have a built-in LED light that signals when it’s time to change the filter, while others have a screen to monitor filter health and water levels.
Our best black water filter tap pick, the Aquasana Claryum Direct Connect, plumbs right into your existing faucet, making it a good option for renters (who may be forbidden from altering their dwelling) or those who don’t want to install a separate filtered-water tap. It offers the same exceptional certifications and filter capacity as our other Aquasana and A.O. Smith picks, but it has a higher flow rate and lacks a prefilter to help with rusty sediment. black water filter tap
