H&G lifestyles Water Deionizer for Car Washing Ultra-Low TDS Spotless Water System in-line Deionized Water Spot Free Water Spot Filter DI-Water System for Car Detailing 50 Gallons Di Water

Good quality

I created the bypass loop (shown in the attached pic) for a hose using this filter and a few other hose components (everything from Amazon for less than $100 including the filter) to use for car washes, etc. then tried out the filter. Using test strips, the filter reduced minerals and salts from a few 100 ppms (in the 300-400 range) to less than 30 ppm. Followed that up with a simple experimental car wash, soaping and rinsing first with unfiltered water through the bypass (bottom loop in the pic), then switching to the filter for the final mist rinse. I did a quick (not thorough) drying swipe with an artificial chamois (The Absorber) to get rid of standing water and let the car dry naturally. No more water spotting on the glass or finish! I am very satisfied!!!I am tackling the solar panels next!As an aside, I contacted the company to get the pressure rating of the filter cartridge. They stated 100 psig, and I know that our municipal water pressure is slightly in excess of that. The filter held together without any issues.

I ordered late in winter so by time I had a chance to use it in early spring I missed the return window. I wasn’t able to use the product so not sure wether it works or not because the piece was damaged. I have investing in my personal car detailing gear for my home garage. I have bought many products for my setup but this has been the cheapest by far. If you have the money buy something more durable. I learned my lesson with this product. Skip it if you can.

I purchased this product to use it in line before the larger H&G lifestyles Portable Water Deionizer I recently purchased and reviewed, to see if it would extend the resin life in the larger deionizer, but I also tested it by itselfWhen I tested the TDS of the water from the tap was 197ppm. When tested through this in line deionizer it was lowered to 20ppm which should result in no spots for any water. When used in line with the larger deionizer it resulted in a TDS reading of 14 which is excellent and having the incoming water to the large deionizer at 20ppm should extend the life of the resin for as long as the in line deionizer is effectiveThe unit is well built and simple. It screwed on with no issue and sealed with the installed washer. If you have need for low TDS water on occasion, this is a great option and compact and easy to use

Just as advertised, it gives you a spotless rinse on my car. I ran a water meter to see how much water I ran through the unit so I will know when it is about done.Mr. Clean use to have a washing system with a deionized filter (was expensive to replace the filter) but stopped making them, I am guessing because of the cost of the deionized filter.

It does filter the water great, however the threads do not work well with attaching to a the water spigot. Over all worked as intended.

I use it to rinse the car for 5 min after washing . I dont see the water spot that I used to see. It really works for me. It is a cheap way to have Deionizer water.

Bought for spot free car wash rinse. Still has spots. A bit tedious to put on and take off for it to not appear to work.
