Things You'll Need:
- Water filtration system
- Faucet filter
- Water pitcher filter
-
Step 1
Fill a large saucepan with water and place over a strong flame. Allow the water to reach a rapid boil and then remove after 60 seconds. This disinfection method will kill disease-causing microorganisms and viruses.
-
Step 2
Use a UV water filtration system. Water filtration systems can be installed under your sink or on top of your counter. Attach as directed. Flip the lever at the back or side of the filtration system to engage the unit. Water will flow until the lever is pressed down or disengaged. The filtration system will act as a stand-alone unit and will not interrupt use of your faucet. According to Linkroll.com, "A UV water filtration system is the best way to kill micro-organisms in your water."

Step 3
Use a faucet filter. Attach as directed and secure with the supplied tools. Many models provide easy-to-install parts that snap on and then rotate into a locked position. Move the faucet filter into the appropriate setting, allowing filtered or tap water to flow as desired.
-
Step 4
Use a water pitcher filter. Assemble as directed; you might be instructed to treat the filter before use. Add water based on the suggested serving size. The water will travel through a filter and then gather in a safe, isolated area at the bottom of the pitcher for use when needed.
