I had Nova system for over 5 years at single family house and had Nova installed when we bought our villa 1 year ago. I have always changed my own filters after the initial Nova install. I highly recommend NOVA. I also use the filter in my refrigerator, but I think it is probably overkill. Once the filters are installed or replaced you need to run several gallons of water through the system prior to drinking. Ok for anything else.

3 filters for Nova Water Filtration System on Amazon.com:

1st Stage : Sediment Filter (5Micron), 2nd Stage GAC Block (Granular Activated Carbon), 3rd Stage Carbon Block (5Micron):

Amazon.com

Currently $79.50 for all 3 (a package deal).

Tool to remove canister:

Amazon.com

O rings for canisters:

Silcon Grease:

You have (or are using) different filters than I was provided with by Nova. I even saved the labels that were on them when I got them dropped off.

The filters I got directly from Nova were Valutrex VX There were 2 sediment filters (1of 10micron and 1 of 25 micron) and one Hydronix 5 micron carbon block filter. I'd be curious to know if they provided ones similar to what you are listing or you selected to use different types.

I have bought them on my own over the last couple years mainly for the convenience of not having to try to get a hold of them. Pricing for the 3 wasn't much less than they were charging but I am always able to come up with coupons of some sort.
