Home Master CFF25-10 Jr F2 Replacement Fluoride Filter, Fits Standard 10” Housings, Multi-Stage, Sediment, Activated Alumina, GAC Activated Coconut Shell Carbon Medias, Compression Disks,1 Count

This is the upgraded filter to the other CFF25 model. I've used both but use this one for every day use ( I keep the cheaper CFF25 to use for filling water storage containers during hurricane season). This filter works well and I often filter it again when I fill my water filter pitcher ( Waterdrop Elfin) to make sure it's extra pure. When changing filters, the instructions say to run 5 gallons through the system before using but I've found that even at 5 straight gallons some discoloration still occurs. So here's what I do: Turn on the filter and allow the charcoal debris to run clear. Then: I SLOWLY run 3 gallons ( 12 16oz jars) then wait at least 10 minutes and run another gallon ( 4 jars) and then wait another 10 mins or more and run the final gallon through the system. This usually clears the water but just beware that when the filter is brand new, it may take running it for a few seconds before filling your glass to clear the light tan color. It's not as if it's toxic- just doesn't always look crystal clear right after those first 5 gallons. Highly recommend these filters. NOTE: One time I received a filter that was difficult to clear and it had orange particulate matter in the water. I contacted the company directly and they immediately shipped out a new filter at no charge. They explained to me that sometimes during shipping, the filter material can get disturbed. I've only had this happen once but this company has excellent customer service.

I bought the counter top unit from the manufacturer last year when Amazon ran out. I now buy the replacement filters from Amazon—the Home Master CFF2E-F10 Jr Elite Water Replacement Filter. It filters everything I don’t want in my water, including the combination of Chloramine. The filter life is six months, and during that time the water comes out chemical free and great tasting. I stopped buying bottled water, as this filter gives the same quality as commercial filtered water (my opinion). For the money it’s a great value and has saved me hundreds of dollars now that I don’t need water delivered. I highly recommend it. For aquarium owners, it’s known Chloramine kills fish, so while this filter may produce water safe enough for use in aquariums, do check with the manufacturer to be sure before you use it for that purpose.

I purchased this filter as I already had a similar housing for this type of filter, a Watts model maybe (The housing says "Filtramax" on bottom of base). I only have this one stage filter for my drinking water, would like to get a three or four stage filtration system as finances allow. By itself, with this filter, the water tastes better than it did with previous filter, previous filter was not as good as this as far as removing flouride. Purchased another. Perhaps due to this flouride filter, I've been having, and better remembering, my lucid dreams. Still need to cut GMO crap like pizzas from my diet.. This flouride filter fit well inside the Filtramax housing. The previous filter had a rubber o-ring at each end, and i had to keep one or both in there to make this new filter fit in tightly. For the first minute the water comes out gray, it states in instructions to let it run for a few minutes, or a few gallons, cannot remember details but one should always read instructions first!

We have been using these filter refills for the past year and are very happy with the quality and ease of installation. Love it!

The photo on the left is the filtered water; the one on the right is tap water- the filtered water has a strange yellowish tinge. And yes I installed it the right way up and yes I let it run for 5 minutes after installing. Going back to my old brand.... Update- after the customer service response, I let it run for a lot longer- 15 minutes and it did eventually become clear. I know another reviewer said that it had to be facing downward wouldn't work if the inlet/outlet was at the top, but I called customer service (very helpful) and they verified that it does not matter which way it is facing, as long as the right end is facing the inlet/outlet. The water is clear and tastes fine now. As I like to get quantifiable data- I am looking into testing the filtered water to see what levels of fluoride, copper and aluminum are.

I don't have overwhelming evidence that these filters that I've been buying for nearly 3 years are effective, so I'll mention the points of why I use this filtering system instead. I had been using a well-known "pitcher system" which requires buying filter after filter until I discovered that fluoride, which is a common additive in "town" water, plugs itself into the body's receptors meant for iodine. That alone was enough to warrant avoiding municipal water but I needed something better to remove the fluoride as Home Master purports to do along with chlorine and other chemicals. Since I use water kefir "grains" (assorted beneficial bacteria) to make my own probiotic I was buying spring water to avoid the chemicals that might kill my little guys. Even though I noticed no chlorine odor from Home Master-filtered water I made the switch to it for them gradually and now use it exclusively and add my own beneficial minerals instead. The fact that my little guys are doing just fine tells me that the filter is doing its job and I have the peace of mind that I've eliminated dangerous bromines from my water. Proof of the latter is that I no longer have an iodine-deficiency disease. I started with a counter top filter and then switched to an under-counter mount using their kit, along with a small stainless steel faucet in the hole in the sink provided for a sprayer, and couldn't be happier. I've improved the quality of my drinking and cooking water, no longer have to keep multiple filters on hand, and the little faucet at the sink is very convenient and much nicer than a bulky pitcher.

After lots of research I purchased the Homemaster Waterfilter. What a difference in the water quality and taste. We can only recommend this Product,

We live in the country and have a cistern so have to haul water in. It's still city water and not the softest. Without the filter I found it had a chemical taste. This filter makes it taste so nice and clean and my coffee machine goes much longer without having buildup when using the filtered water.

Excelente para eliminar agua con sabor a ácido sulfúrico y también elimina flúor y otros contaminantes

way better than bottled water, or straight-from-tap water. One you use this, there is no turning back to the other - but then why would you. This filtered water is way better for your health

This cartridge does a great job of removing the chlorine that has been added to our city water (the lack of chloride taste speaks for itself). I haven't had our water analysed by a lab so as for the flouride that is added by our municipality, and other harmful components, I simply trust that these are being removed as much as possible (for such an affordable countertop system).
