• Question : I can use this and skip the extra faucet? Enough filtered water to get through hand washing, dishwashing etc?
  Answer : If you mean you want to connect the cold water line of your kitchen faucet to this filter, then Yes. However, the filter is going to severely reduce the flow of cold water. You're going to find that extremely annoying. Additionally, having so much water filtered (not just for drinking but also for your handwashing, food washing, dishwashing) means your filter is going to get clogged sooner. You're going to have to buy/replace this filter several times a year instead of just twice a year.

  Answer : It would be perfectly fine.
• Question : Can it be used with a disposal?
  Answer : Absolutely.
• Question : I've had this for two months now and the water pressure has reduced dramatically. What tips is there to help?
  Answer : Do you use it often? Since it sounds like you either have very dirty (large particles in water) water, which would mean you need a pre-filter or you used up all of the filters capacity. I believe the documentation recommends replacing the filter if they flow slows.
