Am I wasting my $$ with this?
I replace it once a year.
I had used several of them until I kept noticing the water wasn't clean. Every time we turned on the faucet, after a bit the filter would purge right into the line.
They don't have enough capacity and they filter just sediment, while they work, and some chlorine.
last time I used one was a pre filter to keep the big filter clean at a campground in Michigan. They use well water and when there are few in the huge campground it is pretty good but still has sediment in it.
We wash our clothes in the mh and bath and cook of course. In two days or so the filter was full and the big whole house canister was full of mud you could see through the clear canister.
The have 100 micron filtration, or very little filtration.
The whole house ones, at least some, will get all the little nasties at .9 or .5 microns and silver and all the rust, lead, phosphates, sulfur, and others depending on what the label says.
I'm not a know it all. I'm a know it very little. I just been looking for the better filters for RVing as we go along.
