the keyword is prolong ingestion, you don't patronize the same eatery for drink every day right? But you drink your home water daily mah.

immediate mati ok je, ayam just wanna avoid long term suffering where possible, otherwise need to burn charcoal

Ayam think if really got heavy metal most probably comes from the same source of water so changing from kedai A to kedai B also will kena right?

here i do a google search for u,.. activated carbon can absorb heavy metal,..

"The carbon-based adsorption technique is widely applied in environmental protection, and biomass-derived activated carbon is recognized as one of the most economical and promising adsorbents for heavy metal removal."

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P...metal%20removal.

up to you lah, ayam main drinking water is from home. Ayam just a slightly better water filter without breaking banks unlike most ppl who opt for coway/cookoo/LG...

....yet most basic water filter system dare not mention filtering of heavy metals in their product description...

If their product can filter heavy metals, don't you think they will put it among key features of the product to rival pricier competitor products?

activated carbon is just a basic material,.. no different in different brand,..

acidic RO and distilled water

doesn't matter, every basic activated carbon filter also mention filter out chlorine, odour, rust...... but none of them dare to mention filter out heavy metals (except those pricier filter with more filter elements).

They don't dare to mention it in product description because it doesn't filter out heavy metals, otherwise they can be sued for misleading product info.

is there any case of heavy metal poisoning in your housing area or are you overthinking this stuff?

well,.. even the link of Gov website i provided above, also confirmed it absorb heavy metal,.. i don't think Gov lied on water safety,.

BTW house pipe water is processed water,.. i don't think there's any concentration of heavy metal,..

Some pipu kiasi try to change something so innegligible stuffs when so many other things can kill u easier.

From the processing plant to your home, you know how many kilometres of rusted pipes it went thru before reaching your faucet? If stay at apartment, there's that huge water tanks also....

you're free to YOLO, quick death is not scary, bed ridden for years is what you should be afraid of.

So sus....must be lotsa pressure to live like that.

Walk out of house kena sun also may get cancer yooo

Huh rusted pipes is heavy metal?

move along, this thread is to get recommendation of budget filter, you want argument pls start your own debate thread.

rust or iron oxide is not heavy metal,.. not even toxic,.. in fact necessary mineral for your body to build blood,..

Already rekomen what? RO removes all impurities.

rusted pipes leads to leaking pipes, means your water can be contaminated by many other sources lah.

Up to you lah, ayam just asking for recommendation of budget filter, you go live your happy life and ayam will live mine.

get good water filter; later eat lots of salmon, sushi
