Description

Whirlpool — Whole Home Central Water Filtration System Never Replace A Water Filter Again The Whirlpool Central Water Filtration System utilizes a special sediment screen to remove contaminants from your water. It works together with a media bed to filter particles to 40 microns — half the diameter of human hair. The internal sediment screen flushes automatically every 14 days and the sediments will wash away with the water while it drains. Certified to Reduce Contaminants The National Sanitation Federation (NSF) has determined a standard for products that are made to produce better home water. The WHELJ1 Central Water Filtration System was tested and passed, earning its NSF Certified label. This certification proves the system reduces dangerous contaminants that are commonly found in home water such as sediment and chemicals that cause foul chlorine taste and odor. What’s Included? The WHELJ1 system comes complete with a bypass valve, drain hose, 3 clips (1 spare), 2 hose clamps, adapter elbow and a grommet. High-flow valve maintains great water pressure (connects to up to 1” plumbing). The installation manual is also included in your purchase.

  • Never change a filter again!
Style: Filtration System
I have very hard water so when looking for a filtration system, I wanted something that was easy to install, low maintenance, and to reduce the contaminants from my water including sediment, chlorine and other contaminants. . It has an internal filter that you never have to change! It is self cleaning so you don't have to worry about buying or changing any filters. That alone was a huge selling point for me! The unit takes up little space and is quiet and easily programmable. It is very easy to install. I am very happy with this purchase. I also bought the "Whirlpool WHES40E 40,000 Grain Softener | Salt & Water Saving Technology | NSF Certified | Automatic Whole House Soft Water Regeneration" to go along with it. ... show more

  • A reliable, effective remedy for poor municipal water quality
Style: Filtration System
For some reason, there is something in our local municipal water supply in Loudoun County, Virginia, that causes us real health problems. Seven years ago, we bought one of these units and it was literally like night and day for us. It removed the chlorine and chlorine by-products and other trace impurities in the water that caused us harm and reliably served us for the next seven years. We moved to a new home about 5 minutes away on the same water system and our health issues returned. I bought a second one of these for our new home and again, it is literally night and day difference in the quality of the water. This Whirlpool WHELJ1 Central Water Filtration System is very effective and reliable. If you are handy, you can install it yourself but if not, then get a professional to install it for you. It comes with excellent, clear instructions, a bypass valve connection, and requires a drain for its periodic self-cleaning feature. By default, it will flush out any sediment and other buildup every two weeks at 1AM. You can change the time and frequency of the cleaning cycle. Because it is self-cleaning, it is maintenance free. It is designed to last about 10 years for whole home central water filtering. Take the cost of this over ten years, and add to that the fact that there are no filters to buy or change over the life of the product, and you find that this is a reasonably priced solution. I highly recommend this product and will buy a new one the next time we have to move. It's that good! ... show more

  • Great water filter for removing sediments
Style: Filtration System
This is the second of these I have purchased, this one to replace the older one which had been in use for about 15 years. I tried other filters before but have quite a lot of sediment from my well which can block other "whole house" filters in as little as 4 hours. Not using a filter causes dripping faucets, clogged sprinklers etc so is not an option. To be clear, there is no lifetime product, eventually the "self cleaning" system, which uses valves, will fail, and the filter will eventually become clogged. I was able to deep clean the filter by dismantling it twice, but the leaking valves caused me to eventually replace the filter. If you have less sediment that could be decades away. As a replacement incredible easy to install, although the new unit looked identical it was 1/2 inch taller so I did have to move the bracket up, but the whole install was less than 15 minutes. If this is a new installation you will need a plumber unless you are comfortable with plumbing in 3/4 or 1 inch pipes. The control unit simply plugs in and in 15+ years no issues with it. You can control how often it self cleans, the default is 7 days and for me I had to slowly increase the frequency as the years went by ending up with a daily clean. The new unit is back to 7 days, so yes they eventually will clog up. I also noticed an immediate improvement in water taste with the new unit. Overall I would highly recommend this filter. 5 stars! ... show more

  • Works great, but it needs to be replaced every 4 years.
Style: Filtration System
First, I do want to emphasize that this Whirlpool Central Filtration System works great. However, the first one I purchased lasted just over 4 years and the second one I purchased lasted almost exactly 4 years to the day. I just ordered my third one. We are on well water, so it is a hard working filtration system. Just be prepared, if you are on well water, that the useful life may be only about 4 years. ... show more

  • Great water filter
Style: Filtration System
This is my 2nd unit. First one was ruined by a disaster so bought another to replace it. Great filter water tastes good and is better for my appliances and plumbing fixtures

  • Too damaged to install
Style: Filtration System
Did the research and found this to be the best value. Product came out of the box with the control board hanging off the side and the screen broken with pieces of the top still laying in the bottom of the box.

  • Original Unit worked well for 15 years
Style: Filtration System
This filter system works very well. My original unit was installed by the previous homeowner but worked very well until the control board failed. I contemplated replacing just the control board but based on the age of the unit I decided to replace the entire unit. For me the installation was very easy since the new unit and the old unit were exactly the same. Bur even a new installation is not that difficult if you have basic plumbing skills. Keep in mind that you need a access to drain near the installation to allow the unit to flush and recharge the filter media. The unit uses and discharges supply water to clean the filter media. Even though it is not necessarily easy to see, the unit does come with pretty much everything you need to install except for the direct connection to your existing water lines. I used sharkbite fittings and PEX tubing and then just plugged in the AC power supply. Programming is easy. If you're not sure have a plumber install it for you. ... show more
