Bro, you dont' want to see, it is just sand filtration, after that add in chlorine, when there's flood, they add more chlorine.

Why the add chlorine even knowing it can cause cancer? Because that's the cheapest and most suitable option to treat water at a very large scale to maintain high throughput.

Chlorine was not the best option, it just happen to be the most economical in terms of time and money.

That's why he told me, Government just provide clean water, healthy and good water, it is not their concern.

Many water filters here in Malaysia are over priced and giving false information. They over rate their own filters for sake of getting higher margin (by charging higher to customers). This is a fact. Water filters in Malaysia are over priced if you want to get a good one. What i am selling is Culligan (made in USA) and can filter out VOC. So there.

Any reviews on GE filters for drinking water?

Also, my contractor recommended to just use a normal filter for the mains (before the tank) to filter out particles, then just change the filter cartridge every few months when it's dirty. Is that a good idea?

I'm not keen on the filter where u need to do backwash. Feels like a waste of water to me. Please advice, sifus

Im not a sifus.. i used that kind of set up. Just a normal filter at the main and an activated carbon filter at the undersink. Catridge at the main i change it once in two months, which cost me only rm15 for 1micron filter. Used to used 5micron which cost me rm7 n change it every 4 months. Activated carbon i yet to change it. One catridge cost me around rm15. So far so good. No rust detected at the cattle or any of the piping fittings.
