We installed a new water filtration system today. No more buying bottled water!

Is that a regular garden hose? I was getting horrible off tastes from my garden hose. Went to a potable water hose.
If all you are worried about is chlorine and chloramines, any activated carbon or charcoal filter should work.
Lowe's sells a two pack 1 micron charcoal filter cartridge for less than $20. Compare the specs to your filter to be sure. Might save you some $$$.
I installed a charcoal filter on my brew stand for my water needs. It works great for taking out chlorine.
The worry about the regular garden hoses is that lead is used as a stabilizer in the PVC they are made of. You can get the more expensive filters that take out lead but they are more expensive than just getting a lead free hose.
Been using it for a year now and love it.
