Home Master HMF2SMGCC 2-Stage Whole House Multi Gradient Sediment and KDF85 Catalytic Carbon Filter

These filters are fantastic. I've had this filtration system for 8 years and have been extremely happy with it. My water tastes great. Everyone comments about how amazing my water is. I recently had an issue with my filter, I called the company and they were extremely nice and took care of the problem completely. I highly recommend this purification system.

Had this filter in Miami and liked it. Moved to Orlando and bought it again. We used to be able to tell when even an ice cube in a drink was made from unfiltered tap water, but now even water out of the sink tastes great - no more Britta.

Took about 4 hours to install, as expected. Works great no leaks.
Would definitely recommend it.

Works like a dream. clear water, in an area where our local water provider consistently provides water that has higher than allowable TTHM (carcinogenic) and high iron and magnesium. Brown water runs out of our faucets if we don't have a filter in this location, so this filter was absolutely necessary and is taking a beating from the high amount of contaminants. change the filter once a year, though I probably should more often. It will get the job done.

Easy to install if you’re handy and filters my entire house without diminishing my water flow! Just the peace of mind my family and I have now knowing there are less chemicals and harmful substances within our water system is more than worth it! I’ve bought this for my homes before and will buy again everytime.

This system is the bee's knees! There are many choices out there, but I decided to go with this one because it states that it works great on city water and removes many metals and sediment. I had a plumber install it and build a bypass, since then, we have been very happy. My hair seems easier to blow dry and my husband thinks its now easier to shave. The filters are replaced once a year and is DIY after the installation.

Normally I don't post reviews of a product, but I felt the importance of doing so in this situation. Since I'm on city water, I was concerned about the contaminants coming through from the city end and also for all the scale/hard mineral build up occurring in my water fixtures. I decided to start the purification process with a two filter whole house filter first. Sediment Filter as my primary and radial flow catalytic carbon as my secondary. From here I decided to add the Home Master Home Perfection RO system to further filter my drinking water which is delivered as a designated faucet at the kitchen sink and also through my LG refrigerator. This way, even those once horrible ice cubes are tasty and crystal clear. Now it is like having good quality bagged ice with bottled water from a glass container. Again, this whole process claims to remove containment between 95-99%.

Up to this point, I couldn't be happier with the system. Home Master makes it easy for the novice homeowner to do a DYI installation. I live in a state where everything must be in copper pipe. Most of the reviews I have seen use PEX or similar style (see pictures).

I'm sick and tired of hearing my family member negotiating if it is worth the money or not. I know we are in a economic hardship right now, but in my opinion, having clean and good tasting drinking water is critically important.

PROS:
-Water in shower feels like you are showering with bottled water
-No order of chlorine or chlorine based disinfectant from city water supply
-Keurig coffee maker has crystal clear water in tank now
-Bunn coffer maker has great tasting coffee without scale buildup
-Filling a camel bag is like using good quality bottled water. No nasty tastes an hour or two into exercise/hike/etc.
-No more hard water deposits in dishwasher, fridge, washing machine, etc.
-Glass of water from the fridge now tastes like Acqua Panna bottled water from glass bottle!
-Dishwasher seems to producer cleaner looking dishes after wash cycle
-Go ahead and look up the contaminants that are permissible in your city water... Do you really want to be ingesting them? If this filter doesn't remove them 100%, 95-99% is much better than 0 the last time I checked! Finally, as I told my family members who disagree with my purchases: It is NEVER TOO LATE to start caring for your health! Heavy metals are linked to Alzheimer's & Dementia to just name a few...

CONS:
-Installation process - If you live in a state that wants a copper pipe install and you can't sweat pipe, hire a plumber or someone that knows what they are doing. If you are not at all experienced, installation may not be for you. However, the YouTube videos and Home Master Installation videos are pretty awesome.
-Cost - you will need to be able to spend around $1,000 to get the whole house filter + the RO system).
-Maintenance - You will need to be able to keep up with filter changes, disinfection processes, etc. on the interval schedule provided or the system will not work as intended.

At the end of the day, I'm just a really happy Home Master Customer who wanted to get the good word out to anyone contemplating on buying their system(s). It is worth every penny! Believe me, if installed properly, the system will do what it's intended to do. Good luck & remember it's never too late to start a healthier lifestyle.

The two filter unit has exceeded my expectations in terms of quality of the water, ease of operation, simplicity of filter replacement, and savings relative to other systems. We no longer use bottled water and the taste is quite good. It is also helpful to have filtered water for laundry and showering. Learned about the system from my sister-in-law who has also had good success with it over a number of years.

I Installed thus Home-Master whole house filtration system myself. Without soldering skills it’s not the average homeowner installation. I’m very critical so sometimes it’s easier to do myself. Cost to install by a plumber is prolly only $200-$300 depending on location on specifics. Anyways I love this filter setup. Water quality has greatly improved. I live in South Florida and the water is horrible. This system is ideal especially if you have children. Make sure you install shut off valves both before and after the filtration system as well as before entering the hot water heater. Add quick disconnects so you can replace in the future and pressure gauges before and after the filtration system so you can monitor water pressure. I change the filters every year without issue. Make sure you buy the gaskets and the gasket sealant as well. Hand tighten only!! The filters are expensive but worth the annual change. I’ve had for 3 years extremely happy with the investment.

We've had excellent experiences with the Home Master systems before (under the sink), so when we moved we decided to get the whole house system. As expected, this one is just as reliable. The install was straight forward and did not take a long time. The water main to the house is in the crawl space, so the size of this system was perfect. Once the water lines cleared, the smell, taste and feel was noticeably better. These systems are top notch. Thank you.
