We are a family of 4 and we buy 3 gallons of tap water at Ralphs, etc.
Since we are all home all the time, the water runs out fast and we have to buy more every time, and it takes up a lot of space
We are thinking of buying a water purifier to install in the kitchen or place in the house.
Is there anyone who uses Pi-water, which is mentioned in Nikkei magazine? ？
How does it taste like? ？
We are thinking about Kangen Water, but it is expensive, so we are looking for something more reasonable.
Please let me know if you have any recommendations for water purifiers.
Thank you very much.

Tell me how often you change the filters and how much it costs each time.

What are you talking about ？
Our initial cost $ is 80 and the lease is less than $ 30 per month. They change the filters for free once a year.

↑
I'm calculating it's costing me $360 per lease year
If I lease for 3 years, it's the same thing.

First, regarding Paiwater.

If you Google "Pi-water" in Japanese, you will find all kinds of advertisements and articles on Japanese sites. Some of them say it is "the ideal water for beauty and health", or even "if you keep drinking this water, all the bad elements in your body will be washed away", but there is no scientific or medical evidence for these claims.

I think it is about the size of a Reverse Osmosis Reverse Osimoses Filter, so I think it has the same or similar structure as a
RO filter. That would be a very expensive expense.

There are three main types of water purifiers: those that attach to the tap, those that fill a large pitcher with tap water and filter it from above, and those that attach the large device mentioned above under the sink. Both of these types pass tap water through activated charcoal, which mainly removes chlorine. Although the odor of chlorine is eliminated, if ingested in large quantities, the deadly minerals will pass through the activated charcoal micron by micron and enter the body. However, these deadly minerals are safe to drink directly from the tap water as they have no effect on the body.　

Reverse Osmosis RO Filters are large and require a professional to install, unless you are a handyman. That is why there are contractors for installation and maintenance. You can find a list of such companies in this Bibi Town Guide by searching for "water purifier".
