Culligan RFC-BBSA Whole House Water Filter, 10 x 4.5 in, 25 Micron Carbon

In the first few days on city municipal water it began turning beige brown and continued to turn brown. I think I'm around 3 weeks in and it's still that same brown. No noticeable pressure drop and I have it in front of a water softener. The water in the showers have no taste after this was installed. I actually want a second filter to drop down to 1 micron, but this filter so far is great. I'll update if anything changes

If you’re on a well and tired of sand, grit, and sediment sneaking into your drinking water, this Culligan RFC-BBSA filter is a game-changer. I installed it as part of my whole-house filtration system, and the difference was immediate. Water that used to leave residue in the sink and a gritty taste in the glass is now crystal clear. The 25-micron rating is ideal for catching all those fine particles that well water tends to carry. It traps sand, silt, and other sediment without choking flow rate or water pressure. I’ve used other filters that clogged too quickly or didn’t catch enough—this one strikes the perfect balance. Installation was simple, and it fits perfectly as a replacement for FXHTC and other compatible models. If you’re managing a property with a well, this filter is a must-have. It protects your appliances, improves water quality, and saves you from constantly scrubbing grit out of your fixtures. Highly recommend for anyone dealing with sediment-heavy well water. Clean water, peace of mind, and no more sandy surprises!

Fits as should. Fast shipping. Does a great job in my home.

The filter is easy to install, and it does a good job filtering out contaminants, and things. It should last several months before I have to replace it.

Outstanding product.

These filters work great and alot cheaper than the ones I was buying from our local hardware store where I bought the filter system originally

We prefer to use Culligan brand water filters. Compared to cheaper brands, they filter out more particles which then means you have to change them more frequently, but that just tells me it’s working. They are easy to install and work amazingly well. This is our top brand choice!

Very easy to replace this filter cartridge. It immediately starting catching small particles. It fits the filter we have. Right after replacement we could not notice a difference in the water quality and smell. Bit on the expensive side for replacement since it’s the oem replacement cartridge

muy bueno, cumple se función

If 'Amazon.ca' was smart, they'd put this in their subscribe & save program (as Amazon.com DOES) - as I use about one of these each month :) As for a review of the filter itself - it works VERY Well, especially in areas with high levels of chlorine in the water :)

We tried this one as an experiment against our standard Culligan R50-BBSA filter and it did not work as well. To be fair this filter has a smaller pore size and is meant to do more than just filter particulates. Realistically it is what you would likely put in as a secondary filter after the R50-BBSA had filtered the water. Our water does not have a color or taste issue so part of the filter is not really needed. However the combination of a smaller pore size and smaller filtration area meant that it lasted less than a month (compared to 3 months for the R50-BBSA) before we saw flow restrictions. Just went back to look at this and since 2019 the price for this has increased by 143%, seems pretty drastic. Made my mind up to not buy again. Not sure how they can justify doubling the price in a couple months.
