Perfekt, genau das was ich brauchte. Kann diesen Artikel nur weiter empfehlen.

Does an outstanding job of removing iron. My shallow well system used to have a reddish/orange tint to it, and white clothing going through the washer would be ruined. I installed a sediment filter, followed by this iron filter, and finally a UV sterilizer in my water system this year. The water discoloration vanished, with just a hint of a faint yellow color left. This does no damage to clothes, and the shower and toilet are now free of stains.There is no odor to the water, and I can not comment on taste because we don't use the water for drinking because there is a crystal clear spring near our house. However, this filter has solved the rust problem for us. After one month of use, my gauges show no pressure drop, so I am expecting long life from this unit. TIP: Don't get a smaller filter. Yes, it will be cheaper, but then you WILL get a pressure drop much more quickly.

I installed a new well water filtration system and use this product in conjunction with a 1000 micron washable sediment pre-filter and two paper filters to reduce iron oxide and sand that enters the plumbing system (thanks to a local water expert in my area). I have a 4 chamber system setup. First is the 1000 micron pre-filter and mine needs to be cleaned about every 14 days. It is a simple task and takes 5 minutes to do. (In my case I have sand and heavy iron content). Then a paper filter, then the iron filter and finally another paper filter.I have noticed a remarkable difference in my water. Specifically in all my water using fixtures and appliances.I have been using this setup for about 8 months now and feel the carbon filter will last at least a year if not longer. I also have found that the first paper filter needs to be changed after about 8 months. I then rotate the second paper filter to the first position as it has very little staining. Then add the new paper filter into the last position.Why I reviewed this product in depth is because after 12 years of fighting a losing battle and thinking there was no answer, I have found that this setup has worked beautifully. I highly suggest to talk to water experts in your area as they are probably tuned in to what you may be experiencing.Good luck!

My water intake is horrible. Hard water and full of iron. As it was only for a low usage in a camp, I tried this filter which did a very good job. I highly recommend, to extend filter life, as second stage, I recommend placing a 50/5micron filter at 34$ and you will double the time before changing both filter. Filter often arrive defective. Look closely before installing.
