Do you need filtered water in your bathroom?

Water-filter

To be honest, I'm not much of a germaphobe. Maybe it stems from my childhood in Indiana, where I spent many happy hours catching frogs in a muddy pond and riding three-wheelers on dirt tracks. As an adult, I do common-sense things like washing my hands before cooking, but I don't go for the fancy hand sanitizers and I (gasp) drink water straight from the tap. Shocking, I know. So that's why I can say Everpure's SPA-400 Drinking Water Filtration System, which was specifically designed for bathroom faucets, probably isn't for me, but if you are one of those I-never-open-a-bathroom-door-with-my-bare-hands type of people, it could come in handy.

It reduces impurities such as lead, cysts, mold, and oxidized sulfides, as well as the taste and odor of chrlorine. (It retains fluoride, so you don't have to worry about your pearly whites.) It can handle a 2.2-gallon-per-minute flow and has a quick-change filter cartridge system. It costs about $350. Check out more wacky bath products.

I have a whole house filter but would like one for the kitchen sink- I can live if the shower water isn't perfect but sometimes I can taste a difference in our drinking water---it is safe but we sometimes have a sulfur smell.

I sometimes add chlorine to the water to combat the smell but would like to at least remove it at the kitchen sink--I like the idea of this filter but WOE, the cost.

How about $50-75. I am not trying to remove crypto or other organisms and contaminants--just sulfur and clorine.
