Is it possible to buy an undersink water filter and attach it to the
existing cold water line and existing faucet?

Cartriges have limited life in gallons, if I hooked mine up to the
faucet it might last a month as with all the dishes being done, as it
is it lasts years for just drinking water, it has a seperate small
tap. I use Everpure and the cartrige is about 100$ if I remember
right. My largest percentage of water use is by far my kitchen sink,
you would be suprised at your gallons used if you wash dishes in the
sink and cook alot. A big filter would work but how effective it would
be to remove Lead without reducing flow and how many galllons it would
last for needs research. I opted to just filter for drinking water
after reading up.
