QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • When changing this carbon filter, how long do I run water thru before drinkable? How long will filter last?

    Hello Charles,
    You need to run water for about 5 minutes before consumption. The filter will last for about 6 months or 800 gallons, whichever is earlier.

Doesn’t last the 800 gallons

I want to say that overall I don’t have an issue with anchor products but it doesn’t last the specified gallons it last about the 6 months and then starts tasting funny.

Thank you for the feedback. We always say 'it is recommended to change the cartridge either after its capacity (specified in gallons) is reached or after 6 months from first use, whichever is earlier.' Life of filter also depends on quality of feed water.
