Great when you know what you're doing.

Has worked great for the last month. Installed three Pentair filters in series, the last one. Use no fewer than three filters if you want it to work properly: the first should catch coarse sediment, the second should be less than a micron, and the third should be a carbon filter. Beware of bad reviews from people who only use this pump - it clogs quickly and it all depends on your specific water. There isn't a single magic filter that takes bad water and turns it into beautiful water that lasts

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Zero

The chlorine taste is gone and the flow rate is good

We use this under the sink in a standard 10" cabinet where it filters 100% of the cold water coming through the main kitchen faucet. With almost no loss of water pressure, we can now quickly and easily fill a glass of water or a coffee pot in the sink.After reading many specifications, it turned out that this is the filter that gives us the best water quality with the lowest pressure drop. We had after about 5 Weeks of heavy use, no problems with clogging or loss of performance Our city tap…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Little things

Not as long as before

I have been using this FloPlus 20BB filter as well as RFC-20BB and DGD-2501-20 prior to this filter for about 6 years. on the city waters of South Florida. I can usually go 1-2 years without a set of filters depending on the conditions. The latest FloPlus-20BB, ordered on 05/27/2021, has already been delivered (today 10/08/2021). The pressure drop across the FloPlus-20BB is about 40psi, so the water pressure in my house is almost zero. The two upstream filters are fine - about 3psi drop in…

  • Cool

I love it. The current is great too with two showers.

Bought a new house for us about 4 years ago and found the house didn't have a safety valve or filtration system and I'm not a fan of unfiltered street pressurized water so I'm saying it in a PRV with one 4x20 filter housing. First I put a regular filter in, I think 30 microns, and in 3 years we haven't had a huge pressure drop. Realizing it doesn't filter anything, I did a little research and finally bought this filter (FloPlus-20BB). I like him. Flow is great even with two running showers and…

Works great - 6 months on city water with pre-filter

I live in a city with historically hard water and nasty chemicals in the water. We installed a water softener when we bought our house, but it still gave us skin irritation after a long shower and the need to use a filter jug for drinking water. Since we had to replace the house's entire water system with a Pex water system when we bought it, I knew the chemicals weren't coming from inside the house. I added a dual filter after the water softener forming two Pentek "Big Blue" units, one with a…

Pros
  • Spare under sink water filter
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Я заказал этот фильтрующий картридж в качестве непосредственной замены картриджа той же модели, который я ввел в эксплуатацию здесь, у себя дома, год return. So here I am sharing my experience of finding a replacement with Revain. I think I've read comments from others here recently about Revain's confusion about a specific Pentek model replacement cartridge. Suffice it to say that the product I received the other day is not what I ordered. I can't say in general terms how the FloPlus 20BB…

Pros
  • Сменные фильтры для воды
Cons
  • Без автоматических фильтров

Very satisfied, you get what you pay for.

We have city water and wanted to filter the whole house. We used two filters, a Pentek DGD-2501-20 pre-filter with a spun polypropylene filter cartridge (50 micron to 1 micron in a filter used as a pre-filter which extends the life of that filter) and this 0.5 micron filter . You may be wondering why this filter is more expensive than what you can get half price at the big store. Well, not all filters are created equal. Most carbon filters are 5 microns, which is 0.5 microns. Cheap filters can…
