How To Buy a Water Filter System
Build a Custom Filter System
Choose from our 4 sizes of filter bodies on this page. The charts below provide specifications and recommended size for family size. Add to your shopping cart. Then, pick the number and type of filters (ceramic or carbon block) for your filter body. Your filter body will have 1, 2, 4 or 6 holes, representing the maximum number of filters that can be installed. You do not need to fill all the holes with filters (we provide plugs for any unused holes). More installed filters = faster filtering of water.
