💦 Pentek 3G Standard Clear 34 PR10 Filtration System Housing: Superior Filtration Performance for Clean Water Review

I used to use AquaPure with a built in check valve but it was a bit too weak and leaked through the valve. This Pentek is solid and seems to be holding up. Without a built-in shut-off valve, there is less chance of leaks.

So far so good, there was a problem with a leak at the threads where the pipe connects to the body but after doubling down on teflon tape and plumbing it seems everything is working fine now.

I just installed two filters. I use two in parallel, so don't have to switch as often. They mount over a kitchen sink, so a 20" unit is hanging too far. They replaced two smaller diameter Cuno filters, so the extra tubes allowed these larger filters to be pushed further apart. As you can see, the easiest way in this situation was to install in different directions. Here's a few things to keep in mind regarding these blocks: Use pipe lube Teflon tape (I like leak blocker) to tighten the threaded
