Comments for Water Filtration Water Filters

Comment on I have a 1996 f-350 diesel. The Fuel Filter light comes on when I am using the front tank. What does this mean? by john

The tank pick screen might have debris in it. If that tank was not used alot there might be algee in the tank. Since you said the rear tank was not setting a light. The problem has to be from the valve to the tank.

I would just be on the safe sid and throw it out. You never know what companies might do sometimes and if it doesn’t say filtered or purified then that’s not right. Always buy the most common water bottles like Aquafina or Spring Mountain or whatever it’s called. What kind of water did you buy anyway?

I’m sure a real company wouldn’t bottle toilet water, but most bottled water is a giant rip off- It’s usually just tap water. Like one of the biggest companies says “Bottled at Corpus Christie, TX Municipal Water supply” Well, that’s tap water from one of cities with the worst tap water… Go figure. Better off to get a Brita Tap filter, or a filtered jug, you can pour it in bottles yourself and save hundreds of dollars, thousands if you drink a lot of bottled water. You never know what companies are really using. If it’s tap water, it’s almost free to them, other than the plant and employees, and marketing, and they charge us $ 1.50 a little bottle. What a scam!

Feels great but the filter leaks, May 8, 2009

I don't know if I got a faulty unit, but it leaks around the area where you open it up to change the filter cartridge. I'll call to see what can be done. It also split easily when connecting to the shower pipe (?). I just turned it with my hand (not a wrench), and it broke the connector. Luckily, it doesn't leak there. It definitely doesn't reduce water pressure, if that's a concern for you.

This is a good product. The advantage is it leaves your skin feeling smooth and moist. I actually feel clean when I get out of the shower. City water tends to irritate my skin even while I am showering. The extension on it allows for easy clean up of your shower and makes washing your pets 100% easier. It also has an off switch on the shower head which helps when your trying to lather your dog without turning the water competely off. The only disadvantage is changing the direction of the filter every couple of weeks. I would like to have a shower head filter that I can install and leave. Of course, I would still have to change the filter. Either way you decide to take, is up to you. All filters need maintenance. Overall, this is a good product for the price you pay.

This review is from: Crystal Quest White Handheld Shower Filter (Misc.)

I probably should have waited to give this review after using it a few times, but after the first use I'm pleased. I live in NY and we generally have good water here. I think the problem is with my building's pipes (rust). Since I've moved into my new place my showers have been terrible. I would come out feeling extremely itchy and my skin would dry up no matter how much lotion I used. I never had this problem before. I'm happy to say that after my first shower with the new filter I'm not itching and my skin felt soft again. Also, my biggest concern was the loss of water pressure. I prefer showers with a very strong flow. My shower actually feels like it gained a little extra pressure. YAYE! There is some very slight leaking where the filter meets the hose. My boyfriend is going to try adding more teflon tape and GENTLY tightening with a wrench. Another thing I like is that the filter attaches directly to the shower arm, so if you're unhappy with the hose/showerhead, you can always swap it out for any handheld shower head you want. Overall on a scale of 1-5:
Water quality - 5
Water pressure - 5
Construction/Durability - 3 (everything is plastic and the shower head is a bit light/flimsy)

Comment on 6-pack of Aquasana 18 Oz. Glass Bottles by J. R. Smith - Upland, Ca.

The size is perfect for me. Only one thing that drives me crazy., May 5, 2011

J. R. Smith - Upland, Ca. -

This review is from: 6-pack of Aquasana 18 Oz. Glass Bottles (Kitchen)

I picked up a six pack of these bottles from aguasana. They hold 18 oz which is just right for me. The glass is thick and keeps cold when taken from the refrigerator. The caps are plastic with a gasket so you can lay them down if needed. Since the caps are plastic just remember not to over tighten them. The opening of the bottle is 1 & 1/4 inch in diameter. They don't want to tip over like the larger/taller bottles.

There is only one thing that drives me crazy about these bottles. Every bottle and the box they come in has a sticker "Made in China." Is it that difficult or that expensive to make a simple glass bottle with a cap here in this country??? Does the company save that much by having them shipped all the way from China and then trucked to their final destination??? I'm over 60 years old and I can remember when WE made everything but now we don't manufacture anything in this country!!!

For me these bottles are perfect. If you stand up a paperback book next to one, you'll find that the book just reaches the bottom of the bottleneck where the threads start. The circumference is the same as a 24oz soda bottle. That gives you a good idea of the size. The caps only need to be hand tightened to accomplish a waterproof seal. I recently moved and found that 2 of my caps had vanished during the move. I contacted aquasana and they sent me 2 new caps for 1.50 each.

I make my own homemade tea. I make a pitcher and then use it to fill three of these bottles. I then make a different kind of tea and fill the other three bottles. Then when I want tea, I just have to grab a bottle from the fridge. Just as convenient as store bought tea, but not nearly as expensive.

To clean I put them in the bottom rack of the dishwasher, one tine per bottle. I put the caps in the silverware basket and close the lid (of the silverware basket). If you don't have a lid on your silverware basket you might want to just had wash the caps.

Works very well but does *not* feel secure on the wall mount, April 1, 2011

PAUL BRADSHAW (CT, USA) -

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Dirt Devil BD10045RED AccuCharge 15.6 Volt Hand Vac with ENERGY STAR Battery Charger, Red (Kitchen)

This is a very nice little vacuum. I keep it in my garage, near the entrance from the kitchen, and use it for small jobs like cleaning the kids' crumbs off the car seats and floors, sucking up bugs and spiderwebs from the garage wall, cleaning food crumbs from crevices in the kitchen, and removing dust and crumbs from my computer keyboards and monitors. It has a small retractable brush that is very useful for car cleaning, and a plastic nozzle that can flip forwards to extend the reach, which is good for cleaning things high up and sucking up bugs.

Apparently this device has a smart charger which does not simply keep the battery at full charge all the time but optimizes the recharging to extend the battery life. I have certainly not noticed any deterioration in the battery in the several months I have owned this vacuum.

Opening the device to empty out the dirt is easy. Most of the dirt just drops out into the garbage. I like to use my central vac nozzle to thoroughly clean out the remaining dust and dirt particles from the inside of the vacuum and the filter. This process keeps the filter nice and clean and I have never needed to replace it.

So this is a good product and certainly had the potential for earning 5 stars. Unfortunately, I am not happy with the wall mount system. The mount itself is fine and stays securely on the wall with the supplied screws, but the vacuum just does not feel secure on the mount. There is no satisfying "click" to tell you that it has been replaced properly on the wall mount after use; it is really just friction that holds it, which I am not comfortable with for a fairly heavy device. A few times I have thought that I replaced the vacuum correctly but then it has started to slide off and I have needed to push it back further so that it stays in place. It has never actually ended up falling to the floor but I don't like having to be so careful. This is a somewhat surprising design flaw in an otherwise very good product.
