"filters work fine. Water quality is excellent"
"Great US made filter. Works well for me as secondary filter to remove chlorine from the feed to non- chlorine tolerant RO membranes."
"Great for the price"
"Tim did a great job helping me select a cartridge to replace an old one from a company that had gone out of business. Perfect fit and and we are back to good tasting water."
"By looking at the filter, it appears to be of high quality components and construction. The ends are rubber, so they seal quite well to the inside of the filter housing. I have an under-sink drinking water filter, which came with 2 10-micron carbon block elements. I wanted the 2nd element to be finer filtration, so I bought this 1-micron element. Unless you have a million-dollar laboratory, it is tough to say whether a filter is doing its job, especially to compare one filter to another. So I must place trust in the manufacturer of filters and the dealer where I buy them. ESP Water Products has earned my trust."
"thanks"
"Sold to a customer."
"Works great. Five minutes to change filters. It took two days to clear all of the little bubbles out and now the water is crystal clear and tastes good."
"Great filter does what i need"
Q:
What does the Omnipure OMB934-1m reduce?
A:
This 1-micron carbon block is designed to reduce chlorine taste and odor, fine sediment, and the listed cyst and VOC claims under the manufacturer's test conditions. Actual performance and capacity depend on incoming water conditions and flow.
Q:
What systems or housings fit the Omnipure OMB934-1m?
A:
The catalog lists OMB934-1M, GXRM10RBL, Omnipure OMB Series, 21179. Check the exact model or part number on the existing equipment before ordering Omnipure OMB934-1m. Its nominal cartridge size is 2.5-by-9.8-inch; verify the housing size before ordering.
Q:
How is a carbon block different from a sediment-only filter?
A:
A carbon block combines particulate filtration with activated carbon treatment for taste and odor. A sediment-only cartridge targets suspended particles but does not provide the same carbon treatment.
Q:
How often should the Omnipure OMB934-1m be replaced?
A:
Replace it when rated capacity is reached, flow becomes too slow, or the equipment schedule requires. Capacity varies by contaminant and operating condition.
Q:
Does a new Omnipure OMB934-1m need to be flushed?
A:
Flush the new cartridge for about 10 minutes before use, then check the housing for leaks.
Q:
What should I verify before substituting another carbon cartridge?
A:
Match OMB934-1M, the 1-micron rating, and the 9.8-by-2.5-inch format. Do not confuse it with OMB934-1L, OMB934-5M, OMB934-10M, or OMB934-05M.
