Waterwise Carbon Post Filters Distillers Review

I have a Waterwise 12 gallon still and love it. These filters are great and the last thing distilled water goes through. I would highly recommend this product and any size Waterwise burner. It's so nice to know that I drink absolutely nothing but H2O.

My father has bought two Waterwise benchtop burners over the years and I use the last one. We are fully convinced of the purity of the water and the fact that we do not carry bottled water with us. We use it for coffee machines, drinking water and cooking. It's very convenient now that accessories like these filters can be purchased from Revain. With 20 years of history we can only recommend it.

This may be because I only use the water still once a week, but I have noticed that after 2 uses (gallons of used water) water from the still is dripping into the top of the filter hover over the top plastic grate and overflow through the overflow outlet.

It is also very difficult to clean the coal dust before first use. After trying all 6 packages, I currently don't use this filter at all.

YOU SHOULD USE THIS FILTER BOX AS A SOCCER BALL IN YOUR STOCK. I HAD TO REPACK FOUR OF THE SIX FILTERS WITH CARBON MATERIAL. Luckily for me the charcoal material didn't go too far as each filter came in its own little plastic bag. ALSO NOTE THAT THE COVER INSIDE THE FILTER WAS NOT SECURE TO KEEP THE CARBON MATERIAL IN POSITION ON THE FOURI MUST BE REPACKED. THE OTHER TWO WERE HERE HOLDING THE CARBON MATERIAL IN PLACE. I USED ONE OF THE REPACKED FILTERS AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY.

I love my WaterWise still! It's a great design and well built. I've been using mine for 6 or 7 years now and all I had to do was change out those filters and a couple of o-rings. Activated carbon filters fit and work well. However, the filters are a bit more expensive and it took almost a month from ordering to actually receiving the product. I will try refilling/recycling the filters myself with activated carbon from the homebrew or aquarium store. It would be a lot cheaper and I wouldn't have
