For me it had nothing to do with the safety of the water which I am sure is perfectly safe but was to get rid of the swimming pool smell and taste of the chlorine which according to my wife was killing her hair. Getting all the sediment gunk out was an extra bonus (see photo in OP). After the filter even I was able to notice the difference in her hair and the very expensive color she gets in it lasted longer. Happy wife happy life.
