They would generally last about 3 times longer than a standard triple pack of budget pre-filters. So if you use about 400 litres of water per day on a 4 day week on a 50/50 reject RO Ratio you would need to change this single pre-filter every 24 weeks which is nearly 6 months. In the same time you would have needed to change your average triple pack of budget filters (20,000 litre life) 4 times.These filters really will save money in use and also will save on carriage charges as only one filter needs sending out once instead of 3 filter sending out 3 times.To use in a standard 3 canister pre-filter RO unit simply take out all 3 pre-filters on the next change and screw back up two of the canisters empty and fit this single filter in the 3rd canister - then change after 75,000 litres. During this time you will also benefit from higher flow rates and less clogging which could save you further money on resin use as the RO could be performing at a better efficiency.Clever chaps these people from Pentair.So i can just buy one of these filters instead of the 3 normal pre filters?That sounds great.Also Alex has the pole hose come out yet that you mentioned?Thanks

Alex. Are these based on the way the ez pure pre filter works? And do they last longer than the ez pure pre filter.

Alex, i would watch out, if everything keeps getting better and lasting longer............you may end up cleaning full time, as your sales volume fall, if you can travel up to chester i can give you two days a week
I've got 2 pre filters before the RO, what happens if I put a Fibredyne filter in each?
