COOL OASIS WATER SYSTEM
I am absolutely delighted with my neat new filtered drinking water filter fitted under my sink, smaller than a one litre bottle. No more lugging plastic bottles! Pure tasting water at a touch and easy to fill other bottles. After much research I chose Cool Oasis after tasting the water at a friend’s house and discovering they use a special Doulton ceramic filtration system that takes out the nasty chlorine without stripping healthy minerals. Under 400 euros although their hot and chilled water options more. Highly professional, they took only an hour to install this compact unintrusive cylinder and impressively cleaned up after themselves. Tel. 664-743994.
