We live in a high rise on the 18th floor. I want to have a under the sink water filter installed.

Waterdrop 10UA Under Sink Water Filter System, NSF/ANSI 42 Certified, Under Counter Water Filter Direct Connect to Kitchen Faucet, 8K Gallons High Chlorine Reduction Capacity, USA Tech https://a.co/d/hFkHBSk

Says working pressure 10-100 psi (0.7-6.8 bar)

The contractor mentioned that he has seen cases where the high floor intensifies water pressure and causes the filter to burst. So advised against it. Is that accurate? What is the way around this in terms of the filteration system or installation protocol to follow? We used to live on the 11th floor and haven’t had any issues when we had another filter but looking for experts to advise.

Hello there, Our water has been found out to be extremely hard and we were advised to perhaps install a decent under-the-sink water filter system. I've done some research and found many on eBay and have also found the Brita MyPure 1 system (but that one is a wee bit pricey) but would like to...
