Watts MAXVOC-975 0.5 Micron Water Filter with 20,000 Gallons Filtration Capacity Review

Perfectly matches my entire home filter for our RV water supply. Water tastes the same wherever we meet. There is no hike without it.

Works well for a short time. It's advertised as a 20,000 filter, I'm pretty sure it filters 20,000 gallons but not 0.5 microns. It works well for about a month with a 1 micron pre-filter. I am the only user of this filter and I am sure of my statements. I have used filters with much longer lifespans. My opinion is based on personal taste, not test devices.

Tried this filter as a replacement in my Watts water filtration system and found this filter to be incompatible: when I installed it the water flow seemed to shut off its free at all, so tastes the same as out of the tap. When I took the filter out and placed it next to the old one, I saw the difference in length - just enough for the water to flow around the filter instead of through it.

love it! Absolutely fresh water taste. This update is 8 months later: My water is well water. It took 7 or 8 months for my water to taste metallic (I drink about 4 gallons a day). I'm sure if you live in a city and use the city's water supply it will take a lot longer. This is not a complaint. I was surprised he was doing so well. Based on this, my recommendation for well water users is that the filter should probably be changed every 6 months. After 8 months, the filter was completely brown…
