3M Water Filtration

[Jzack]

Has anyone had experience with these 3M filters? I've done some searching and haven't seen them mentioned before. They seem to offer great filtration (0.2 micron) and flow (3.5gpm) in a small, easy to change package. 3M discontinued the RV application but they can still be found in commercial grade applications. They last about a year and can be found on Amazon for about $100 for the filter and roughly $130-$150 for the system. I heard they came standard on some Country Coaches too.

3-M generally makes quality products. I prefer the jumbo cartridge/canister from The Water Filter Store. You can choose any type of filter you want do do nearly any type and level of filtering. I happen to use mainly just a carbon block but you can get down to 1 micron with any of several others. I'm in an area off a municipal system so I don't worry about cyst or other microbes...I just like to remove the chlorine and hose tastes so the ice cubes and coffee are good. You could wait a year between filter swaps but I don't recommend it- and most will say 6 months (as does the literature for the 3-M). It mostly depend on the gallons used but I know I can start to detect water taste changes somewhere between 6 and 10 months.
