An outdoor faucet water filteris usually hard to come by. However, because most home filtration systems do not filter the outdoor water, outdoor faucet water filters are necessary. The water coming from the outdoor faucet is filled with pesticides and other harmful chemicals such as chlorine and lead. Unwanted pesticides and chemicals in outdoor water can be damaging to your lawn, your pets, your pool, and even your car. While it may not be too difficult to fill your pets' water bowl from inside your home, this does not mean that you should tote filtered water from inside your home outside to wash your car or fill your pool. A simpler way is to have a filter put on your outdoor faucet. An outdoor faucet filter will eliminate the need to add so many bacteria-killing chemicals to your pool and spa water. It will also allow for your car to look cleaner since there will not be any mineral spots left on it after you wash and rinse it.
Because outdoor faucet water filters are not as common as indoor faucet water filters, it is best to ask for them by name at major hardware stores such as Lowes or Home Depot. In the event that neither of these stores carries this type of filter, you should search online for one. The journey locating such a filter may be long, but the results will be well worth the effort after you install it. After all, setting up the necessary water purifier or filter in your home is much cheaper than getting sick because of contaminated water.
