Great filter for my 3 stage setup
J. Miller✓ Verified Purchase•July 19, 2023
I love these filters. I have a three stage setup in my RV. I use a 5 micron then a 1 micron and then this carbon block. The water tastes great or actually it doesn't taste like mud or whatever local nasty stuff is in the water. The water doesn't taste like like a high end battled water because they add salts for flavor. This thing removes almost all flavor. Its just plain clean water. I do get a pressure drop after all three filters but this carbon filter preforms better than any others I've tried. My shower isnt getting tons of water deposit anymore. I filled two bowls with water one filtered from my three stage and one unfiltered, covered them with paper towel and let them evaporate. The filtered bowl still had deposits but it was small and minimal, more like a film of dust at the bottom. The unfiltered had yellow/tan crystals that formed in the bottom. It looked like beach sand. If you wanted to try this but fast just boil 1/2 a cup of water in a pan until its all gone. Just make sure to watch it and dont let your pan burn!
Some cites have deep wells where they get the water but its not always clean and sometimes doesn't pass regulations. Every once in a while when I change my filters I have chunks of nasty stuck to my first stage filter. sometimes it looks like metal and other times it looks like ectoplasmic residue from ghost busters. I could never drink city/well water. Some day I hope to setup a Reverse Osmosis so I can have clean water from almost any source. I love the water in Colorado but even that has salmon spawn in it :)
After about 3-4 months I have to change my filters because they are clogged. My first two stages are heavy as rocks.

They work perfectly. I will never go back to knock-off filters.

I tried a no-name brand and they were bad. Had to spend the extra money for the Pentair filters. They work perfectly. I will never go back to knock-off filters.
Pressure Drop
MechGuy✓ Verified Purchase•June 28, 2023
Pressure drop is significant across this filter even at relatively low flows. Not a issue for me but higher than I expected.
Good filter

Seems to work very well. The water definitely tastes better.
Lowered water pressure too much
sip31✓ Verified Purchase•May 16, 2023
I'm sure this is an awesome filter... it was recommended to me by my water guy.
Unfortunately the .5 micron just dropped our water pressure too much. We were only able to last about a week before I had to swap it out.
