Hi guys, i'm staying in a double-storey terrace now looking for a POE outdoor water filter, any recommendation? Sand? Membrane?

Saw few brands such as EZ Membrane, HydroOne, PureGen, PerfectSteel, 3M, GenAir, WaterCo... =.=''' which one is good? What is the reasonable price for a outdoor water filter + installation?

i heard membrane filter for outdoor is not suitable? True?

Thanks

thanks zheilwane.

i already have diamond indoor water filter for drinking and cooking for 2yrs, now want to get outdoor unit for the entire house.

i recently read about membrane water filter not suitable for drinking? eventhough outdoor? membrane actually more suitable to filter sea water? because membrane filter will remove all the rich and good minerals in the water?

no way to prevent the dirt and sand from the sand filters to intrude the house? worry in long term will cause block and congestion in the internal piping... headache then...

how to tell which type of membrane is UF and which is RO?

The 3M filter looks more suitable for condo owners? i'm considering either sand or membrane, with stainless steel body and head...

Sand - Pros:
- seems more natural filteration
- economical maintenance (replacing sand every 5 yrs? how much is that?)

Sand - Cons:
- bulky, heavy... may cause the porch to sink a little...?
- manual backwash instead of auto backwash?
- dirt and sand may intrude into house

Membrane - Pros:
- very clean and clear water, 0.01micron
- slim housing, does not take up too much space
- auto backwash available for much convenient needed

Membrane - Cons:
- healthy minerals removed, soft water?
- higher cost of replacing membrane (every 3-5yrs?)

not sure if i miss out any pros and cons for each type, sand vs membrane... anyone care to elaborate further?

hope i can make a suitable choice on the POE outdoor filter..

Hi zheilwane, pls pm me your best price for

1. Perfect Steel (stainless steel head + body, installation)

What kinda piping do you provide? PVC (grey color?), PVC (black color?), stainless steel?

Do you provide water tank cleaning service? how much?
