When selecting a whole house water filter, there are several criteria to look for in order to ensure we buy the correct and good water filter for our house – flow rate, filter size, filter life and port size. We have to determine what flow rate is suitable to the house. Flow rate determines the amount of water available to run the house toilet, shower, dishwasher, etc, and may range from 15 to 40 gallons per minute (gpm) depending on the size of the household. A whole house filter system with flow rate less than 10gpm is not able to maintain uninterrupted water supply then.
