New house has an under-sink water filter system. The tap is a

how old the old one is. Anyone know a good/cheap supplier online?


I have bought replacement Triflow cartridges from

Thanks, I'll givethem a try


They certainly seem to filter out the iron particles in my water
supply as effectively as the original one.


Surely a tea strainer would do that!

Well, not really. The iron is in suspension in my supply - I think part
of the main is the old iron pipe some I imagine this is where it picks
it up from.


I replace ours when the flow slows down noticably which is precumably
when the filter is clogged up.


They say 6 months. I wonder how bad the consequences would be if you
never bothered.

In our case, you wouldn't get any water eventually.

The part number I have bought from Greene's (from the previous link) is
064723. They are about £25 each - I don't know how much a real Triflow
cartridge costs from Triflow Avilion.
