CLEAR2O RV & Marine Inline 1 Micron Solid Carbon Block Water Filter for Reduced Contaminates, Bad Taste, Odor and More - Lime Green (CRV2006)

This is by far the best water filter I have ever had. It eliminates all discoloration and smells from my home's well water, making the water sparkling clear. My water has heavy iron, causing strong discoloration. I attach it to my laundry tub faucet because it doesn't fit any other, and fill up water jugs. I use it strictly for drinking (no showers, laundry, etc) so it lasts a good 5 months. Even at the end of 5 months, the water is still clear. I tried another less expensive filter that I literally had to remove the same day because the water was still discolored. This filter is more expensive, but totally worth it because I no longer need to buy bottled water. I buy the filters two at a time so I always have an extra.

These are a size for size replacement for the cheaper blue filter, but they do need the Clearo2 pre-filter to make them more practical. The blue filters are 5-6 micron filters and take out larger particles, along with some carbon filtering. These green ones filter at 1 micron and substantially improve the carbon filtering. Without the 5-6 micron pre-filter they risk clogging too easily. I just stayed at an RV park that uses well water and the prefilter caught a significant amount of brown sludge, but it is easily back-flushed. This filter actually clogged too and had a very fine silt like sludge on it. I'm happy it clogged because it showed it was working. I normally replace filters every 3 months and the blue ones have never shown signs of blocking or having captured anything. I took my saw to the blocked one and having looked inside I can tell you the carbon filter in there is a very significant and really does filter out fine material.
