- GrowRite water filter outperforms the competition
- The GrowRite garden hose water filter is uniquely constructed using 7 filter media.
- The highest grade acid washed coconut shell carbon is utilized. Many competing filters use less expensive bituminous (coal based) carbon.
- The GrowRite water filter employs twice as much bacteriostatic KDF filter media as some competing filters. This allows for better filtration and longer filter life.
- The GrowRite water filter incorporates 5 separate sediment filters that minimize sediment and turbidity whereas competing brands utilize only 2 to 3 sediment filters.
- The GrowRite water filter uses 50 micron sediment pads whereas competing brands use as high as 150 micron pads (The lower the micron count, the smaller the particle size it will stop).
- The filter housing is made from a very durable UV resistant polypropylene making for a rugged filter which is also resistant to damage from UV light.
- Molded garden hose end fitting allow for a snug leak free connection unlike flimsy nylon ends found in some competing brands that cross thread and leak. Also, other inexpensive brands use what appear as durable brass connectors which actually can contain lead that can leach into the water.
- Tightly packed filtration media which all but eliminates the potential of “channeling”. Channeling can occur when loosely packed filter media settles and allows the water passing through the filter to actually bypass the media altogether.
- Protective end caps included for storage (store wet) when not in use. Unlike “carbon only” filters which actually promote bacteria growth within the filter itself, our filters prevent bacteria growth thanks to the KDF media. Filter media should be kept moist (after initial use) when not used to allow the KDF media to stay active and prevent bacteria build up.
