*by  on Reviewed in Canada 5 October 2017*

Been using these as our second stage filter in our home system for many years now (first stage is polypropylene filter). 0.5 micron is much finer filtering than what you typically find for a carbon block filter. The extra cost is worth it, I think.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lowered water pressure too much
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 20 April 2023*

I'm sure this is an awesome filter... it was recommended to me by my water guy.Unfortunately the .5 micron just dropped our water pressure too much. We were only able to last about a week before I had to swap it out.
