What is the difference between FM -15A and FM-25R filter. Which has better filteration.

The 15A is white and the 25R is chrome colored plastic. The insides filter exactly the same and the 15A is somewhat less expensive, especially if you use Amazon Subscribe and Save. I go through a filter a month and it costs me $10.58, which is better than the $15.64 currently charged for the chrome plastic one. Unless someone looked up at the bottom of the filter mount on your faucet, no one will ever know.

Sorry, I don't know. We have only used the 25R and are very satisfied with it.

No, according to Dirt Devil's website this model uses F39 filters. My model is the BD10100 which uses F38 filters. They have pictures of both filters and they are completely different.

Clear filter, 007M, is the prefered choice and priced higher. UV coating can slightly distort coloring and its benefits are debatable.

No difference as far as I can tell. Only the color of the case and the plastic stick are different. Originals were blue and these are orange. Same filters.

Hi My filter was a MFM 15 and it works great can't even tell the difference. I would ask the seller ans there is a live chat and they will tell you where to purchase it.

Yes they are the same filter. We use the smaller one for our fifth wheel. The water tester they send with the smaller one is a bit chincey. It does pour better than the larger one though. Irregardless of the size, the water tastes great.

Can only tell you that they both filter down to 0.05 microns, which is better than the LifeStraw's 0.2 microns. Appear to be the same product with different logos stamped on outside during manufacture.

The carbon filter is a thin spongy filter and the HEPA filter is larger made of a paper type material and pleated. I vacuum both filters to clean them and actually rinse the carbon filter with water and hang to dry being careful to wait until it is fully dry before using

The more filtration the better, plus you can adjust the flow rate on the unit. I have the 406 in my 55g and it keeps the water crystal clear...and I mean CRYSTAL clear!!!! You should be fine. This is my first canister filter and I love it. I have to check behind the tank sometimes to make sure its running it that quiet.

Hello Big Joe, In order to remove your concerns, please purchase the HEPA-Silver filter for any of our units. If you are looking at the BreatheSmart, it is the BF35-Silver-Carbon Filter.

The biggest difference is the size/design of the systems and the cost/life expectancy of the replacement filters. The Coway AP-1012GH is for 256 sq ft and has a CADR (clean air delivery rate) of 165. The carbon odor filter is suppose to be changed every year and the HEPA filter every 3 years. The Coway AP-1512HH is for 326 sq ft. and has a CADR of 210. The carbon odor filter is suppose to be changed every 6 months and the HEPA filter every year.

There are several filters you can use try a Fram PH6017a as a starting point.

It filters better than a K&N;, but I still bought one of the AFE filter wraps so I don't have to clean it as often, live on a gravel road, lots of dust in summer.

I own both and the are essentially identical except in one aspect. They are the same size and capacity and made with the same parts and electronic controls. This difference is that the 700, that I bought 9 years ago, included a special KF antimicrobial filter in it that is not mentioned in the new 220. It obviously cut the mfr's cost but has no impact on the softening ability of the unit that I've now owned a few months, running flawlessly. Very easy to install and set-up so long as you provide the in and out plumbing.

My original filter was the B and the A works exactly the same. I bought the A, after checking with the manufacturer's website, when I couldn't find the B. Hope this helps, Bambi.

I was initially confused about this too. The AC5000 unit (black, silver control area, blue UV light tower unit) used to use 2 filters "pushed together" on top of each other, but now it seems to be a single filter and more expensive too! Yikes!Hope this helps. FYI: if you have the AC5000 unit, you can get the older filter style which cost 15 less then this one!! Same thing!!!It is called: "FLT5000 Filter-C True HEPA Replacement Filter"
