Thanks for all of your suggestions, I removed the Thread Tape, cleaned the
O-Ring, re-installed and it sealed perfectly. All is well now.

My experience always has slow leaks caused by grit on the Oring. I get
alot of sand in mine and rinsing the O ring off just never seems to get
it out. I always have to remove the O ring and totally dry it with a clean
towel. and than clean the O ring channel with a dry towel. and than clean
the O ring sealing surface with a dry towel. SOmetimes I will lube the O
ring but not always (dependds if I can find the lube)

You dont need the teflon tape. the seal is done with the O ring, not the
threads

Anyone out there own the OmniFilter U25 Whole House Water Filter? I've
had mine for over a year now, but I can't get it to seal after a recent
filter change. I've always kept the O-Ring Lubricated with faucet grease
and the Threads of the cartridge holder wrapped with Teflon Tape. I've
tried several times but I just can't get it to seal.
The filter holder is screwing into the housing correctly, not
crosss-threaded.

Any Ideas?

Thanks In Advance,
