Almost 10 yrs na akong naka filter with softner sa bahay, sinabay ko during our house renovation.
During that time almost 100K nagastos ko. But I believe doable na ang 50K now.
Kung naka nawasa ka, you need to have a cistern tank and a pressure tank system, specially if more than 1 storey ang bahay mo para mataas pa ang water pressure after the series of filters.
And then you can install another compact water purification system under your kitchen sink para sa drinking water nyo, para hindi ka na bibili ng tubig pang inom.
In the almost 10yrs that I had the filtration system, never pa nasira. Basta naka set ng tama yung cleaning ng filters. Also, every 2-3 yrs palit din mga filter materials and resins for the softener.
