Know before you buy
The PreEvolution filter measures 9.75 inches by 4.75 inches. While it is specifically designed for Hydro-Logic PreEvolution systems, it will fit any standard housing that accommodates these exact dimensions.
Standard carbon filters primarily address chlorine and taste. The addition of KDF media allows this filter to effectively neutralize heavy metals, iron, and sulfur, making it significantly more capable for treating well water.
The filter is rated for a 7,500-gallon lifespan. Depending on your water usage and the initial quality of your well water, you should track your usage to ensure you replace it before the media reaches its capacity to maintain optimal filtration performance.
Yes, this filter is designed to reduce rust and silt alongside chemical contaminants. However, if your well water has extremely high sediment levels, you may want to consider a pre-sediment filter to prevent this unit from clogging prematurely.
As with any filtration system, there may be a slight reduction in flow rate as the filter captures contaminants over time. If you notice a significant drop in pressure, it is likely an indication that the filter has reached its capacity and needs to be replaced.
