I have just recently installed this CQ 1000 shower filter and now find myself bumping my head into the shower head. Does anybody out there have a solu

Got to a hardware store and get an extension for the water pipe that connects to the shower head. I got one that is adjustable and it works out great.

Make sure u take out the plug in the head that regulates the water pressure. Then it's wonderful!! It works like a charm...u will love it!

The answers to your concerns are really good, it might be a bad unit. Like they said, call support line, check the water level. If it buzzes all the time I'd want a new filter. Good Luck

Unscrew the old head and screw in the new one. You might need to put in a provided washer etc. depending on your situation. I am so happy with this new shower filter. I can feel the difference between the old one and the Sprite.

The filter should be good for an entire year of use. You would replace the whole device, which is just the filter itself. When you replace the filter, you just remove the filter and the shower head. Install the new filter, run it for a little while to clear out the excess debris, and then attach the shower head. Then you're ready to go. :)

Hmm... it may be something with your pack. I've never experienced this with these filters before (i've ordered them 3 times). I do get an oily film on the surface when I add a water conditioner - but it doesn't sound like you are adding that to your water. I'd recommend trying to get in touch with the company for a replacement - sounds like you may have a bad set of filters.

I've never had this problem with mine. Did you rinse out the filter well before placing it? That's the only thing I can think of that might be the cause...

Hi friend. Did you let the water run for 5 min after initial installation the fist time? It is in the correct position. Also make sure the filter is on the right position. If this keep happening then I believe that it is defective. I hope not.

Yes I had a similar issue when I changed the filter. Call the sevice and they will help you.

I believe it says in the instructions you need to move it closer to the filter to get a water flow / movement but I may be wrong. If that doesn't work use a flat head open and clean if it was a used one.

I guess I will be the voice of dissent, but our unit has struggled significantly. With a 1.75 gpm shower head and a 1.5 gpm faucet you most definitely feel a temperature drop in the shower. This unit has definitely underperformed the manufacturer's specs.

No you just use your own shower head. I bought a new one when I got my filter, mine was old and full of hard water build up etc. It was worth it.

Hello! Well I will tell you. I ordered two replacement filters about three weeks ago and I have that same issue. It seems to filter the water and then it does come out slower. I don't know if its a real issue but I know exactly what you are saying. I am going to call culigan and find out for sure. Thanks

I followed a recommendation for this filter from a chriskresser.com. He had a link to a guy who rated them. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a product that removes everything yet. It doesn't make the water feel sticky. Our water isn't hard so I'm not sure how it would perform there. Sorry.

I've had no problems with mine. Sounds like mineral deposits or something is clogging yours. It is a small opening and would not take much to clog it. Maybe run the shower for a few minutes without the fixture on if you have not tried that.

I must tell you that I was very concerned about how the filters might retard the flow of water. However! I found that all the shower heads I replaced with a Jonathan, that the water flow was drastically improved! The odds are that you will notice the same. The regular setting just blasts so strong it's so refreshing. If you have decent water pressure, the massage feature actually does help with sore neck/back. Strongly recommend! Don't feel as if the negative reviews will apply to you. I found precisely the opposite. :)
