    they are low but still there.
    some plumbers say a carbon filter will remove these but others want to install an infra red device

    which is true

    It all depends on what's in the water. Most drinking water in Ireland is fine. Some as good quality as bottled water. I have a carbon filter on The American fridge but would be happy with the quality of the tap water without the filter.

    Infra red filters are for water softening as far as I know

    If you wanted to drink harvested rainwater you'd be looking for a UV filter.

    The type of filter used will depend on what you want to filter out

    its a deep well pumping, 104ft deep, so carbon filter should do the job really
