That is incorrect please rely on people doing for 40+ years,

Do you think all carbon is the same?

It's not
Our carbon is costs about $60 the highest grade carbon made for us for over 18 years,
you can buy cheap carbon for $20 it may look the similar but it will not filter out the impurities ours does or last as long

Get the best it's your health

A two stage filter doesn't effectively work in TV, especially the 2"X10"
We replace those a lot.

see pic look at the size and capacity difference







see the internal filter size the 10" are thin wall like like a cardboard roll for paper towels




Filtration is based on the quality of the elements and size or surface area both of which the 10" don't have

The filters are $85 for a set of all three

it's not how many times a year, filters go by gallons of throughput not time

About 26,000 on average 9-12 months refer to your bills for useage

I am totally baffled why anyone living in TV would not want a whole house water filter system fitting, as the water taste and quality here (before having our system fitted) was terrible.
We looked at a load of systems before choosing Nova Filtration and why anyone would choose anything else is crazy.
No, I am not on commission, but I will state right here and now that in my humble opinion, Nova Filtration have the best water system and the best, most affordable, most honest hard working company in TV.

Because there are a great number of us who find the water here fine. Nothing against water filter companies, but just because you find unfiltered water not drinkable, doesn't mean everyone does. Not to mention, a Brita pitcher for water is an option.

I rarely even use the filtered refrigerator water because I find the tap water to be good to drink.

My refrigerator water won't wash my hair and keep it from being too dry/frizzy, or get my white clothes clean enough, or keep my skin from itching after showering.

No whole house filter here, and neither the wife or I experience the myriad of problems you just listed.

Good for you. That doesn't negate my particular circumstances. A WHF did.

Do you have a water softener as well as the WHF?

[jimbo2012]

It works out about 15% in main part of TV have them
and 50% in Fenney

[retiredguy123]

Do the water filter and softener salespeople comply with The Villages solicitation rules? Just curious.
