💧 Enhanced GE FXWTC Water System Replacement Filter for Optimal Results Review

All my homes have had a whole house filter for the last 32 years and these are the only filters I have ever had problems with. About a week after installation, I noticed a sharp drop in water pressure in my faucets. I removed the aerators from the faucets and they were clogged with black material (filter carbon deposits). I replaced the first filter and put in a second and the same thing happened again. I went to HD and bought a popular brand and I no longer have the problem. I will never buy…

Breaks down and clogs faster than name brand products. Yes, we replace it more than recommended. This time our water was so clogged that I suddenly thought our water pump needed replacing. As soon as the shower turned on, it felt like I was in Seinfeld in this low-flow episode. By replacing it with a filter from the well-known GE brand, the pressure in the shower is better than in a year. Same timeframe as when you started using it. I usually love generic drugs, but saving $2 isn't worth the…

I installed this filter and after 2 months a gray spot started appearing below the waterline in the toilets in my home. I was stumped until, just for fun, I pulled out the filter and examined it. Of course, the inner core was as black as the outer. Carbon penetrated the polypropylene sediment core and entered my house. Not sure what ill effects this could have, but the staining was bad enough. By the way, the gray stain on toilet dishes is not that easy to remove - it really is a stain and it…

I have been using this activated carbon filter for many years. I have a GE SmartWater GXWH20F filtration system that requires a 9x5x2 inch filter. This is the size that has been listed in the product information in the technical details for many years. However, the product dimensions in the item header are now listed as 10 x 5 x 2.5. This filter is now an inch longer! Terrible! I couldn't figure out why it warped in the canister, I changed it every few weeks, stupid of me. I just kept buying…

I have noticeably smelly cold water and this really helps. Until recently I was unable to determine the effective filter life for odor control. I noticed that the last time I changed the filter was exactly 2 months ago and the smell has just returned. This is with two users in a house with well water. The above statements take place without a drinking water supply via a pur activated carbon filter installed on the water tap. This makes the water perfectly drinkable. i drink it a lot For water…

I don't know why I can't contact the seller directly as I don't have a logistical problem with the product, ie it is as advertised and delivered on time. But both filters I received were contaminated with pathogens and I wanted to see if I need to return items or what I need to do for a refund as I've only been using the filters for a few days. After noticing bacteria growing in the first filter, I removed it, tested and sterilized the system. But without success it turned out that the second…
