Hi all,
 
I am in the process of looking for a good water filtration system 
for my kitchen sink.  (I currently only drink distilled water, and 
am now tired of cooking with chlorinated, floridated water.) 
 
Can anybody tell me what I should be looking for?  One filter I am
looking at has the following specs:
 
        Removes: lead
                cysts and turbidity
                particulates (class 1)
                taste, odor, chlorine (class 1)
        0.5 gallons per minute 
        100 gallons capacity 
 
Is this reasonable?  Should I keep looking?  If so, what for?
 
Thanks for any advice you may have,
martin
