Filtered Water vs Bottled Water – What’s Actually Better for Your Health?

Think bottled water is safer than tap? Think again.
We’re breaking down the real pros and cons of filtered water vs bottled, using Aussie data and global insights — so you can make a smarter, healthier choice for your home.

🚰 The Bottled Water Illusion

Bottled water feels cleaner — but many brands are just filtered tap water in disguise.

In fact, a 2023 study by CHOICE Australia found that some bottled water brands had higher microplastic levels than Brisbane’s municipal tap water.

Not to mention:

• 💸 Costs up to 2,000x more per litre

• 🚯 Creates plastic waste that lasts centuries

• ❌ Still often contains trace chemicals like BPA

💧 Why Filtered Water Wins

Filtering your tap water is cleaner, greener, and more cost-effective. The right multi-stage system can remove:

• Chlorine

• Fluoride

• Heavy metals (like lead, copper)

• Pesticides & PFAS

• Microplastics & sediment

Our Trinity Water Filter uses 8 powerful stages including activated carbon, ceramic, and mineral enhancement — giving you safe, silky-smooth water straight from the tap.

🧪 Aussie Tap Water: Safe, But Not Perfect

While Australian tap water is among the safest in the world, state reports show it can still contain:

• Chlorine & ammonia (used for disinfection)

• Fluoride (controversial for long-term use)

• Rust, sediment, and copper from old plumbing

Filtering ensures peace of mind, especially for:

• 🧒 Families with kids

• 🐾 Pets

• ☕ Tea & coffee lovers who notice the taste
