18 of 20 people found the following review helpful Excellent filter element, but beware, April 5, 2009 By  H. William Mann "yudamann" (Outer Banks, NC) - See all my reviews    I upgraded my earlier whole house filter to this larger filter/element. My house is piped with a separate water system serving my kitchen area only, and I wanted an element that would easily last a year between replacements, which this does. It is a quality element that has low pressure drop and removes chlorine taste and not just sediment, which is what I wanted. Sediment only filters can be purchased for a lot less than this type filter element. On my first replacement I found that the O-ring that seals the element housing to the pipe manifold had swollen and was far too large in circumference to be re-used. It would not fit back in the groove in order to tighten the housing back to the manifold. Fortunately I had plumbed my new filter with by-pass valves that allow water to continue flowing downstream while replacing the element.

This review is from: GE FXHTC SmartWater Whole House Filter Replacement Cartridge (Tools & Home Improvement) This FXHTC filter worked great for the filtering aspect, but for our household the pressure drop was too much. Our pre-filter pressure is 60 psi. With this filter in place, showers were the problem -- water barely sprayed out of a standard 3 GPM shower head, & god forbid anyone else happened to be using a faucet or running the dishwasher etc. This filter would work great if your water comes in at higher pressures but (as far as I know) 60 psi is a fairly typical pressure. I switched back to the $14 FXHSC filter which has a far less noticeable pressure drop.

This review is from: GE FXHTC SmartWater Whole House Filter Replacement Cartridge (Tools & Home Improvement) These filters do the job very very nicely. We usually have to get them at Home Depot. They are not cheap. In using one a month, a person wants the best deal they can get. I will be purchasing this from Amazon from now on.\ Help other customers find the most helpful reviews  Was this review helpful to you?  Report abuse | Permalink   Comment
