Time consuming project. Bought this filter to raise water PH level, also purchased recommended standard Big Blue Housing as well. Despite, the description that this filter fits any 20″ standard Big Blue housing – it does not. The upper opening of the filter does not seem to fit in any of the two different Big Blue Housing that I tried.
Called customer service to have them direct me to a right housing that I can purchase on apecwateroutlet.com, instead got a pitch to buy the housing from them directly at DOUBLE the cost that apecwateroutlet.com offers. Not even sure if it actually works or not yet. But the opening of the filter must be the same size and fit over the extension coming out of the housing.

Product was cracked. However we did not realize it was damaged until after the return window had expired. Not at all happy with this product.

We installed this filter because, during the sale of a home, the pH came back at 6.1, acidic by EPA standards. This filter was advertised to raise the pH for 24,000 gallons. On days 1, 2 and 3 it did not work as advertised. We uninstalled it and installed a chemical feeder instead (to the tune of $1500). Save yourself the money and headache, skip this product.

Have a well and very acidic water. Bought the product to neutralize the water and save my copper pipes. Received it, installed it and hardly had any water pressure at all. Pulled it out only to notice the housing was cracked. I don’t think that had any thing to do with the water pressure though. Had the same water pressure issue with another company. Contacted them and they sent me a new housing unit with a different style filter on top. I poured the calcite from the old housing to the new one and it worked perfectly. This filter that was sent by Apec looks exactly like the 1st one I got from Intelafil.

This product has worked great! Had my water tested three times at different places and was told that I have the cleanest water they’ve ever seen!

The filter cartridge did more than I expected in a short period of time.
Once installed all tests were well within acceptable limits in just 24hrs.
No more green stains laundry is cleaner, water tastes better.
Very pleased. Be aware of how heavy this cartridge is though.
