    Researchers recommend people use a Brita filter or similar product for tap water. These filters use carbon to rid tap water of such compounds.

    I have a countertop water filter that uses a carbon filter for this kind of thing. Gets rid of the chlorine-y smell and I guess stuff like this as well.

    The one I have is kinda lame though. Locks up easily if you accidentally completely empty it of water, one of the chambers has stagnant water, etc. And of course you have to buy filters, and replace them every 6 months.

    Not sure if there are many good countertop water filters. An under-sink one works better of course.

    okay penitentkulak in this thread says this may not be very effective.
