Questions & Answers

What is the difference between this and Whirlpool's pleated WHPL filter? Isn't the pleated filter more surface area than the standard filter, which means the filter life will be longer?

Water contaminants are different in size, type, and quantity depending on the particulate size, type, and quantity. Is the World Health and Human Rights Forum A 6 month filter life is estimated for the GD05 filter, which is rated for particulate filtration at 5 microns. Throughout the depth of the filter, it is capable of absorbing particles of various sizes. Additional surface area can also be added by grooving it. In addition to its large surface area, the pleated WHPL filters larger particles by capturing them at the surface, and has an estimated filter life of three months. Its filtration occurs at the surface of the pleats and is rated for 30 micron particulate filtration. Although it is important to experiment with both types of filters, if you are only trying to filter larger gritty particles, the pleated style would work best, while silty particles (or both silty and gritty particles) may be more easily filtered out using this type. In addition, the actual filter life for both filters varies with the particles that enter the system.

It is one of the best filters there is
5/5

I would recommend these Whirlpool filters because they are a great product and last for a long time. This means that I need to change these filters once a month rather than every three months as recommended. The problem lies with the filter, not the device. The residuals simply have a lot of filters applied to them. It was necessary to change filters three times a month when I used other filter brands / types. Whirlpool filters are very good. I highly recommend them. allows the filter to dirty in stages, starting inside the channel and then moving outward as the residue dirtying the filter, extending the filter life. Other filters, however, are dirty all at once, causing water flow to be restricted rapidly. You should not use filters with so-called corregation or ridges on the inside. I believe those types of filters are not run through the screwed pins but have merely superficial Whirlpool filters can be pricey upfront, but they are cheaper over the long term. A big box store offered them at a lower price, but the product was replaced with an inferior product. Poor me! I went to another store!.

You can save trouble by buying two packs
5/5

Using a Whirlpool filter means you'll have very little sediment in your water. If you rely on that filter, you should replace it periodically however, they will age over time. It would be easier to do this if you always had a filter enabled Buying them in bulk buying two at the same time It's best to keep one pack of filters at all times in case you need There are only a few steps to it Each time you use up a filter in a pack, you should buy two more It's all there. It can't get simpler than that, right?.

I think they are good at what they do
5/5

4 years ago, I installed a Whirlpool water softener and (2) whole house filters and that has provided me with excellent water softening. The WHKF-70 is the one I use With the GD05 filter element as the first line of defense, and a Whirlpool charcoal filtration system between it and the softener, the problem is eliminated. After using paper (pleated) filters for some time, I found out these spin-back filters did a better job since the medium goes all the way through to the middle of the filter (not just on I rarely let my monitors go that long (I change mine every 4 months) because they last longer than paper before their pressure decreases. My methods of using them work for me, so I don't see why I should change them.

Please double check that the WHKF fits Canisters for dry-cleaning water
3/5

I bought these on the premise that they were intended to replace the WHKF-D It is made of DWHV pleated material. enough, but their height is a bit higher than the pleated ones, so I have trouble getting the canister seated properly so it leaks.

Comparable to looking in several stores at once
5/5

As I searched from store to store for this filter for my parents, I had an ah ha moment when I discovered the friendly Amazon marketplace. Made sure they meet the specifications after finding them. It was very simple to install, and they fit fine in my mom's water filter system. am ordering this for the third time in as many months.

Several of the filter rings fell off and were mostly cracked
3/5

There were most of the rings on both of these filters broken, cracked, or crumbling. I have ran for 30 minutes, but still see cloudy water. Due to the packaging, which was a shrink wrap and not a box, it's likely that they've been knocked. This was not the way to ship. The shrink wrap had a 2019 sticker on it, which indicates that it may have been older. It is best to stay away from this manufacturer and to find a different replacement filter even though I have a whirlpool machine.

It fits perfectly
4/5

I tried it to see if it was any better than the other ones. The difference didn't really make any difference to me. I found it to be just as effective.
