Is the 10 GPM rating good enough, or should I look for another whole house water filter that performs better?
The 10 gallons per minute rating of the APEC Green Carbon filter is more than necessary in order to ensure a smooth and fast water flow. If you find that the overall performance of this model suits your needs, we advise you to go with it because it will offer clean and soft water without being too high maintenance.
Does it remove anything else from the water besides chlorine and chloramine?
Yes, the APEC Green Carbon model actually removes VOCs and THMs from the water. In addition, it reduces the hardness of the water, so by installing it you will have softer and healthier hair after you wash.
Thanks for your help! I’ll probably buy it next month, I hope that this unit is exactly what I need to finally enjoy soft and clean water.
What are the maintenance costs, considering there are three filters that need to be replaced?
You shouldn’t worry about the further expenses because the set of filters costs less that $50 in stores and they only need to be replaced once or twice a year, depending on your water consumption.
