The debate between bottled and filtered water has become more heated as concerns about the environment continue to grow. While many people crave the fresh, clean taste of brand-name bottled water, they juggle that with concerns about the virtues of contributing to plastic waste. To help you through this dilemma, Coolwater Drilling, well drilling and water systems experts in Bremerton, WA, explores the pros and cons of bottled and filtered water. 

Here, they share what you need to know about your H20 options:

• Water Supply Contamination: A disadvantage of tap water is that it is susceptible to contamination. As evidenced by the recent water crisis in Flint, MI, chemicals and contaminants such as lead can get into municipal water systems, making tap water dangerous to drink for thousands of people. 
• Environmental Awareness: Over the past two decades, it has become clear that buying dozens of bottles of water every month contributes to human waste. If your local tap water is considered safe and is drank by most residents, you can save money and help the environment by turning away from bottled water. 
• Water Filters: An increasingly popular third option is tap water filters that come in a carafe or faucet-mounted form. These filters give you the best of both worlds: the fresh, purified taste people seek in bottled water without the damage to the environment.
