  arsenic in my water

Wondering if there is anyone with experience dealing with
arsenic filters for household water.
What to buy ? what not to buy?
Thanks

  arsenic in my water

I was thinking whole house, per sink prices are from 500.00
to 1300.00 vs 2500.00 to 5000.00 for the whole house. quite a price variation? I understand the jury is still out on bathing in it.( for children anyway).
If I do just the kitchen sink then we are brushing are teeth in the kitchen. My seven year old can sit in the tub for an hour.
Still researching.
Just a note for all, a standard water test does not include arsenic.(here in Maine that is.) arsenic is a cause of kidney and bladder cancer.
Boiling it to cook in it just concentrate's the arsenic.

I will see if I can locate that info and try to post it.
I'm told that here in Maine it is common practice to by-pass
your outside faucet's, as well there is a by -pass on the unit. I don't think running down cellar everytime I run the cloths washer. Thanks for pointing that out. Perhaps a by-pass permanently plumbed for the washer is in order with a whole house system?
Thanks for the comments.
