Product Description

Whirlpool — Whole Home Central Water Filtration System Never Replace A Water Filter Again The Whirlpool Central Water Filtration System utilizes a special sediment screen to remove contaminants from your water. It works together with a media bed to filter particles to 40 microns — half the diameter of human hair. The internal sediment screen flushes automatically every 14 days and the sediments will wash away with the water while it drains. Certified to Reduce Contaminants The National Sanitation Federation (NSF) has determined a standard for products that are made to produce better home water. The WHELJ1 Central Water Filtration System was tested and passed, earning its NSF Certified label. This certification proves the system reduces dangerous contaminants that are commonly found in home water such as sediment and chemicals that cause foul chlorine taste and odor. What’s Included? The WHELJ1 system comes complete with a bypass valve, drain hose, 3 clips (1 spare), 2 hose clamps, adapter elbow and a grommet. High-flow valve maintains great water pressure (connects to up to 1” plumbing). The installation manual is also included in your purchase.

    A reliable, effective remedy for poor municipal water quality

    A reliable, effective remedy for poor municipal water quality
    For some reason, there is something in our local municipal water supply in Loudoun County, Virginia, that causes us real health problems. Seven years ago, we bought one of these units and it was literally like night and day for us. It removed the chlorine and chlorine by-products and other trace impurities in the water that caused us harm and reliably served us for the next seven years. We moved to a new home about 5 minutes away on the same water system and our health issues returned. I bought a second one of these for our new home and again, it is literally night and day difference in the quality of the water. This Whirlpool WHELJ1 Central Water Filtration System is very effective and reliable. If you are handy, you can install it yourself but if not, then get a professional to install it for you.It comes with excellent, clear instructions, a bypass valve connection, and requires a drain for its periodic self-cleaning feature. By default, it will flush out any sediment and other buildup every two weeks at 1AM. You can change the time and frequency of the cleaning cycle. Because it is self-cleaning, it is maintenance free. It is designed to last about 10 years for whole home central water filtering. Take the cost of this over ten years, and add to that the fact that there are no filters to buy or change over the life of the product, and you find that this is a reasonably priced solution.I highly recommend this product and will buy a new one the next time we have to move. It's that good!
