The plumber added a canister type chemical treatment product before our electric water heater.
While it appears to be a filter, it deposits a compound which keeps the water's minerals from precipitating out, so I understand.
These appliances are apparently more common (or required?) before tankless water heaters.
I read a lot of "reviews and comments" online but came out with no comparison.
It takes the 3M Aqua-Pure AP-431 canister. $36 each is the price.
Substitute (cheaper) replacement canisters bare names like Aquaquest, Waterdrop, Fetta Filter and Pure-Up.
These substitutes cost 1/2 down to 1/3 the price of the 3M Aqua-Pure.
My question is is anyone knows if the cheaper ones are good or not.
I know 3M is a good name and I don't want to be foolish with a purchase decision.
Thanks
