Usage Recommendations

Install in any standard 10-inch by 4.5-inch filter housing, such as those from GE, Culligan, Whirlpool, or Dupont. Replace every 3 to 6 months depending on household usage and local water quality. For best results, run the filter continuously to ensure even sediment removal. Keep the housing clean and dry when not in use to preserve filter integrity.

For users with well water, results may differ significantly due to higher levels of minerals and organic matter. This filter is optimized for municipal tap water systems.
