is the town water treated with that nasty clorine?
then you can get simple filters with a carbon cartridge to remove taste and odor
(rain fre sh is one brand)(50 bucks)has a filter on it that looks like styrofoam.. (do not use a carbon filter on untreated water as it can grow bacteria.)
if untreated water then you can install a ultra violet light to sterilize the water coming in. (300 buck plus plumber) and put a standard filter cartridge before it to reduce sediment forming on the bulb casing. i have two filters set up in a 't' so that the water goes through both filters side by side to increase my low pressure water flow.(39 psi)
have your outside taps come off the piping before your filtration system, otherwise you will be treating garden water and plugging up your filters quicker.
there is also a one tap filter that is ceramic. but does cost to replace the filter. that is why it is it's own small tap off the kitchen sink.but is touted is stopping all bad bugs. there are three cartridge systems that go under the sink to create good, safe water.
