Don't think carbon filter effective enough for heavy metals

If so kiasi, try small water distiller, shopee RM400 - 500 can get, single person sufficient maybe...

Good and effective water filtration never come cheap...

And don't eat salmon or cold sea fish, they have higher heavy metal content

If not mistaken normal table top filter with single active carbon filter will not filter out heavy metals from our raw water.

Any recommendation for budget water filter that will do the job?

Edit:

So far nice option found with ktards recommendation:
1) Cosway Hexagon 8-stage Water Purifier 89648 (new system RM330, replacement filter RM170)
2) Cosway Hexagon Water Filter - Alkaline Water Filtration System 2 (new system RM720, 3 cartridges to replace)
3) AQUASANA AQ-4000W (US filtration brand)

Been using this Hexagon 8-stage and Hexagon water filter 2 for more than 10 years. No regret.
And been recommend this to /ktard oso many years back.

Hexagon 8-stage filtered quite well. Tasteless like mineral water. Even can be drink directly but i still prefer to cook it.
Usually using it to wash vegies n fruits, make soup.

Hexagon water filter 2 then i drink direct.

Hexagon 8-stage only need to replace once in 10-12 months, or even 1 half year. If it go brown, can just gently brush it off.
If got good outdoor water filter then it will not get dirty easily.

I use water filter 5 micron outside the house, sendiri tukar.

The filter becomes very dirty in a few days only even after I have cleared out tons of water before fitting in new Pensonic cartridge, changing every 2-3 months, and cost rm20 per year.

And activated carbon filter for drinking, 1 cartridge per year cost me rm75

But they stopped producing "made in Japan" version, the "made in China" version is cheaper by 25%.

So I stocked up some earlier version before it goes away for good.

I don't want to drink super duper clean water every single day, give body some chance to work it out daily.

Nope, there's rental plan and outright purchase

If rental, all filters and warranty are included during the whole 5 or 7 years

If outright purchase, filters and warranty only covered for 2 years, after that customer need to buy filter package separately at RM320/yr

The new 518, I see the new upgrade is custom water volume and favourite setting, any other improvement over 516?

518 so boxy, cannot do 180 degree turn anymore?

I see similar as other companies.

So what happen after 7 years for rental plan?
The model probably discontinued so need to get new model with 7 years contract? Is it contract or can stop rental any time?
