The True Cost of Bottled Water vs. Home Filtration

If you're buying bottled water for your family, you're not alone. But when you add up the real costs - financial and environmental - the numbers tell a compelling story.

The Math on Bottled Water

The average American family of four spends between $1,200 and $2,400 per year on bottled water. That's just for drinking water - it doesn't account for the water you cook with, make coffee with, or give to pets.

Hidden Costs You're Not Counting

Beyond the sticker price, consider the time spent buying, carrying, and storing cases of water. The plastic waste generated by a single family can exceed 1,000 bottles per year. And bottled water only solves the drinking problem - you're still showering in, cooking with, and cleaning with unfiltered water.

What Home Filtration Actually Costs

A whole house filtration system from Pure Viva provides filtered water to every tap in your home. When you break it down over the system's lifespan, the cost per gallon is just pennies. With our financing options starting at $49/month, the transition can actually save you money from day one.

The Quality Comparison

Here's something that surprises many people: much of the bottled water sold in the U.S. is simply filtered municipal water - the same source as your tap. A quality home filtration system often produces water that's purer than what you'd buy in a bottle.

Environmental Impact

Reducing your plastic bottle consumption is one of the simplest and most impactful environmental choices a family can make. A whole house system eliminates the need for single-use plastic while providing superior water quality.
