Q:What is the flow rate of this carbon filter? Which home master carbon filter would have the best flow rate?
by|May 6, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Up to 20 gpm. This one and the purple cap have the same flow rate, but the purple cap has more powerful filtration. The Upflow filter features the most powerful filtration across a broader range of contaminants, but its flow rate is up to 10 gpm.

    Q:What NSF certifications, if any, does this product have. Can you provide a list specifying the what this cartridge will filter out? i.e. will this remove radium

    Answer This Question

    A:  Please google Home Master the Perfect water which contaminants will Home Master Carbon Filter out? It will contain a list of contaminants removed by this filter beyond those listed in the product description.

    by|Jun 20, 2022

      A:  Home Master Support answer on this question is total BS and I would probably just scratch it off as it doesnt have any NSF certifications and doesnt filter much.

        Q:does this fit the aquaboon water filter system
        by|Jun 7, 2022
        1 Answer
        Answer This Question

        A:  This filter will fit Aquaboon Wholehouse systems that accept 20" x 4.5" filters. To give you a more specific answer, I will need a specific Aquaboon system model#, since they make systems that take smaller filters.

          Answer This Question

          A:  Zero drop in water pressure! Cause the filter and housing are over sized you won’t notice any difference.

          by|Feb 15, 2019

            A:  The water pressure basically stay the same. Excellent product.

                    Filter was installed in January and the water still tastes great in June. I have a two filter system with a sediment filter and the carbon filter. I change the sediment filter every six months and the carbon filter once a year. Great combo.

                    Great while it lasted
                    Worked great for 2 weeks, then flow diminished to unusable rate. Could only use one fixture at a time. High cost for poor results, perhaps the wrong application for my setup.

                    This is the third set of filters I’ve put into the system. Each has lasted at least 18 months (one set I left in over two years) with zero impact on flow. Maybe they’ll last longer if I’m patient. Since there develops periodically a ring in the toilet due to no chlorine residual, I’m confident oxidants are being removed. That’s why I put in the carbon filter in addition to the particulate filter. The water tastes great. Another bonus: I haven’t replaced my refrigerator filter in several years, as it has nothing to do! I put a filter bypass in my system in case I want to “dose” the system with chlorine.

                        product works up to expectations; it removes most contaminants and reduces sodium, but not completely. A good product for the price
