Homebrew: Convenient Water Filtration System


I provide a quick overview of my homebrew water filtration and distribution system I designed. The system is made up of 1/2″ PVC, PVC ball valves, garden hose quick disconnects, whole house water filters and a cam fitting. Below I have provided links to items similar to what I have in my setup. Please make sure if you are going to substitute any PVC items you’ll need to make sure the product is schedule 40 and not furniture grade PVC.
