How does the filtration of this compare to others as far as what and how much is filtered out? We were using Pur and Culligan filters most recently.

We used to use Pur water filters as well before we purchased our new fridge. I used to love that i couldnt TASTE the water with the Pur filters :-) I can honestly say the electrolux filters are comparable and we have been using them for about 2 years now.

This filter dose have several names that's it is sold buy. However I have 2 and have had no problems with it when filled with matrix,purigen,coarse sponge, fine sponge, and filter flos. The flow is not as night as it says when it full of media but flow is not everything!

Difficult to say as I have only the Star Tech filter. I have been satisfied with its performance. Easy to clean.

From what I understand you can use either filter in the unit. I love mine. I'm using the one that came with it currently, but then bought the better filter in a six pack at Costco.

So far our filter has been holding up pretty good. I haven't had the chance to change it yet. Sorry.

I've been using PUR filters for a long time. I don't have any problem with it. After installation, please don't forget to let the water run for the recommended time.May be you have a different issue. Sorry, I don't have a definite answer for youGood luckN.T

Sorry I only use this filter. It does the job for me. I have no clarifier on this.

We use these in both ways. After a 6"sediment filter we have a charcoal whole house filter then at the sink we have another charcoal filter. Water is very pure after triple filtering.

I did not use the filters as we have a whole house system on our home as well and a reverse osmosis drinking water system. I only used the RO water in the fountian. My bulldog puppy has they unit chewed up with in a week :(

As I know it a RO filtration system will remove 96% of all contaminates. You probably have no better choice. We have 2 one at work and one at home and these are used exclusively for drinking water and ice maker water. They have both worked great and once you see what just the prefilter removes you will be amazed. I would highly recommend and RO system even if you think you have good water. Our employees haul water home.

Actually, I don't know exactly how much chlorine the Culligan FM-15RA Level 3 removes.The filter removes enough chlorine, that I do not taste any chlorine; even after three months.Remember: Less then $10 per month, great tasting water, and a very small environmentalfootprint.

Just to kinda help you out. I have a 75 gallon aquarium. I also have a fluval 406 canister filter. I use 2 350ml of purigen and it last for 6-7 months. It's not specific to gallons. It's based on how cloudy/discolored/dirty your tank is. 2 bags of 100ml would last me maybe 2 months.

I've tried both filtered and tap and filtered and filtered is more work but I think it keeps the inside cleaner longer. But since I fill it twice a day for my small apt. I just use tap water and it seems to run just fine. So it's really up to you. I'm not in a position to go to the expense of distilled water for my purposes.

You can use the Culligan UB-1 Mounting Bracket and the Watts 5 micron five count filter pack for about $14. Each filter is good for about 6000 gallons (about 3 months). I think the product number on the Watts filters are 500299. I bought the filter and bracket both on Amazon

The Family filters to 0.02 microns, which is an extraordinarily fine filtration level. Since it removes viruses in addition to bacteria and protozoa, they call it a purifier. The LifeStraw filters to 0.2 microns, which removes bacteria and protozoa. Viruses in reality are quite rare in our water.
