Under-Sink Drinking Water Filters

Under-Sink Drinking Water Filters in Daly City

Simple kitchen filters for homes, flats and apartments across Daly City.

The easy fix for better-tasting water

Under-sink drinking water filters in Daly City are the simplest way to get rid of the chloramine taste at the kitchen tap. A certified carbon block does the job without a membrane, a tank or a drain connection, and it fits in almost any cabinet.

For older homes, some carbon block filters are also certified to reduce lead. If your plumbing or faucet dates from before 1986, a lab test is a good first step, and then we match the filter to what the test shows.

They are a great fit for flats in the Excelsior and Sunset, renters, and anyone who wants better water without a bigger project.

In an older kitchen

Older cabinets can be shallow or crowded with original plumbing. Under-sink filters are small enough to fit beside almost anything, and we mount them so the shutoff and cartridge are easy to reach.

If your faucet is old, we can also tell you whether it is worth replacing at the same time, since old fixtures are a common source of the lead people worry about.

Plenty of Daly City kitchens still have their original shutoff valves, which can seize or drip once they are turned for the first time in decades. We check them before we start and carry replacements, so fitting a filter never turns into an unexpected plumbing job. Renters get a setup that comes out cleanly, with the cabinet left as it was found.

Questions people ask

Will it remove lead?

Only filters certified for lead do. We will tell you which ones are.

Can I take it with me if I move?

Yes. We can install it so it comes out cleanly.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. The cabinet work carries over to an RO system.

Will it remove lead from old plumbing?

A filter certified for lead reduction will, and that is the type we fit in older homes. We suggest a lab test as well so you know your starting point.
