His system is top quality and I really like that there are 2 pressure gauges, 1 going into the filters and the other as the water leaves. I check the pressures every 2 months and when the difference is more than 5 lbs., I call Bob to replace the filters. This takes away guessing as to when to change!
Thanks Bob for your product and more for your service.
The gauges are cool looking also!

For what its worth, my gauges read 74 psi incoming and just a shade lower outgoing. That's in Winifred.

Good pressure but remember, the cartridges need a change based on time & gallons.

Yep, its only been 3 months since it was installed, so I think I'm probably ok until the Fall. Thanks Bob.

I drink the tap water in my house all the time. It's very good.

12 months works for most folks, easy to remember a yearly anniversary.

Or should I say most (anniversaries)

We had Bob install the three stage filter system right after we purchased our home here and the water improved instantly. We noticed that you do get a bit of a charcoal smell from the new filter (the third stage), but that goes away after a few days. We drink the tap water all the time and it is quite good, and a LOT better than without the filters.

Great glad you're happy with the filter.

charcoal has no smell, I think you may have needed to flush the old water out of the pipes.

But it all good now
