3M Aqua-Pure Whole House Water Filter AP917HD-S for Aqua-Pure System AP904

Whole house water filter systems offer great solutions to help protect your pipes and appliances from sediment buildup and chlorine, as well as scale, providing you with great-tasting drinking water from anywhere in the home. The 3M Aqua-Pure Whole House Sanitary Quick Change Replacement Water Filter AP917HD-S is designed for the 3M Aqua-Pure AP904 Whole House Sanitary Quick Change Water Filter System. This filter contains media that helps reduce sediment, chlorine taste and odor, and scale, improving water quality and taste while supplying cleaner, clearer water to every water source point in the house.

The scale inhibition feature of the AP917HD uses polyphosphates in minute quantities to bind calcium and magnesium hardness minerals, preventing them from precipitating out and building up on metallic surfaces, which can reduce flow rates throughout the home's plumbing system. The innovative Sanitary Quick Change (SQC) design, an industry first for this application, allows for fast and easy cartridge change-outs without having to contact the filter media or the need for a filter wrench.

The 3M Aqua-Pure Whole House Sanitary Quick Change Replacement Water Filter AP917HD-S is designed for use with the 3M Aqua-Pure Whole House Sanitary Quick Change Water Filter System AP904. The SQC design makes it easy to replace, as it allows for fast and easy change-outs without having to contact the filter media or the need for a filter wrench. This whole house water filter reduces sediment, chlorine taste and odor, as well as scale, helping to increase the life of hot water heaters and appliances, such as dishwashers and clothes washers.

The replacement cartridge has an activated carbon filter with a nominal heavy-duty particulate reduction rating of 5 microns and a 100,000-gallon capacity at high flow rates of 10 gallons per minute (gpm) and even at intermittent peak flow rates of 20 gpm. The filter is certified to NSF Standard 42, which is one of the world's most respected independent certification organizations that helps protect the world's food, water, consumer products, and environment.
