Water Filtration in Chicago, Illinois 60290
14% of housing has gone up since 2000.
Free to homeowners in Chicago — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.
The short answer
In Chicago, 14% of housing has been built since 2000. A filter is chosen against a test of your own supply; the annual report your water system publishes describes the water as it leaves the system, not as it reaches your tap.
Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey, table B25034, five-year estimates. A margin of error is published alongside every estimate.
Filtration is chosen against a test, not against a sales pitch. 14% of homes in Chicago were built since 2000.
What this site is
ClearTapCall is a referral service, not a contractor and not a laboratory. We connect homeowners with independent contractors for filtration and treatment installation. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands, and treatment equipment plumbed into a supply is often a permitted alteration — ask to see the permit. We carry out no work, we sell no equipment, we test no water, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything. Nothing here is a statement about the water at any address, and no page recommends a product.Chicago in numbers

Cartridges are a running cost
A filter that is not changed on schedule is worse than no filter at all. Factor the cartridges in before comparing two installations.
What the annual report tells you
Every public system publishes a consumer confidence report. It covers the supply as it leaves the system, which is not the same as the water at your tap after it has crossed your own pipe.
