This filter was easy to replace—however the old filter is very heavy (lots of water). We have been using this filter for about three week. We purchased this one to eliminate the chlorine from our water. it seems to be working

I was getting a bit of “off” taste with the coconut stuff and replaced it with this. One “tell-tale” with those cheapies was the sealing washers would fall off the filter. Maybe that was the reason leakage? Anyway, these work great. Fit “big blue” perfect, washers stay put and the water tastes great.

Excellent performance! Effectively removes sulfur taste and smell from well water and last about 3 months in a whole-house application.
