We landed on this as a recommendation from our Culligan representative. We had previously used a 5 Micron filter from GE but it was too fine and stopped working after just 2 weeks! This 10 micron filter is working much better! Good water quality, good water pressure. Glad I found it.

Lasts about 6 months for us

It works but doesn't last extremely long and is rather expensive but still less than the water treatment company charges.

Worth the extra money. This filter from Pentair helps to remove the massive amounts of chlorine used in Arizona to sanitize the water The chlorine in the water damages the resin bed and water softeners. Decreasing the water softeners service life. Using this charcoal filter will also provide improved taste and removes odor from the water. I have tried other filters, I will stick with this Pentair Charcoal filter a head of my Kinetico Water Softener.

Just what the doctor ordered for my RV. Many of the filters available have a large center hole that would not align with my filter, so water was bypassing the filter. I did not realize this until I changed it one day and notice that the impression on the rubber of the removed filter was crossing over the inside hole and determined that it was obvious that water was bypassing the filter. These filters have a small ID hole of 1-1/8". I am now sure that the water is getting filtered and not bypassed.

Perfect

I continue to purchase these for my whole filter and it works fine each time.
