| | Water filter to actively remove suspended white matter in tap water
After boiling water I noticed there are obvious white, suspended matter floating in the water boiler. I have to clean the water bottle almost everyday otherwise those white stuff sticks at the inner bottle.
I didn't see that kind of sediment/suspended matter in other country, is it something special to Switzerland's tap water?
I wonder if I could install some water filtering equipment so I can get rid of them?

Did you properly clean your water boiler every time you use it? |

I'm a bit lazy to use brita, would prefer something like this: https://www.amazon.de/wasserfilter-b...erfilter&psc=1
Is that enough to remove the chalk/calc/white matter?
Where can I buy this in Switzerland?
