{"product_id":"crystal-quest-smart-whole-house-water-filter","title":"Crystal Quest SMART Whole House Filter | 9-13 GPM","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost whole-house filters handle one or two categories of contaminants. The Crystal Quest SMART handles fifteen. It is the flagship system in the Crystal Quest line, built to ISO standards and covering chlorine, chloramines, PFAS, PFOS, heavy metals, hydrogen sulfide, VOCs, THMs, pesticides, herbicides, iron oxides, and petroleum and pharmaceutical by-products from a single installation. If your water source is a well, a rural municipal supply, or anything in between, this system was built for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCrystal Quest SMART Whole House Water Filter Key Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBroadest Contaminant Removal:\u003c\/strong\u003e No other Crystal Quest whole-house system covers this range.

No brine tank, no salt, no backwash needed. Important: the conditioner does not remove calcium from the water. It changes the form of the calcium, not the amount. A standard hardness test after installation will still show the same reading, and water spotting on dishes remains possible. If actual hardness removal is your goal, choose the traditional softener.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation and User Documentation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1286\/9985\/files\/WholeHouseManual24v4.5.pdf?v=1726861859\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eDownload Whole House Filter Installation Manual (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1286\/9985\/files\/ISO_UPDATED_3079US_25-26.pdf?v=1755287036\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eISO Certification\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crystal Quest","offers":[{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - Standalone \/ Fiberglass \/ 1.5","offer_id":48479681872127,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-01","price":1791.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - Standalone \/ Fiberglass \/ 2","offer_id":48479681904895,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-02","price":2107.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - Standalone \/ Stainless Steel \/ 1.5","offer_id":48479681937663,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-03","price":2484.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - Standalone \/ Stainless Steel \/ 2","offer_id":48479681970431,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-04","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - With Salt-Free Conditioner \/ Fiberglass \/ 1.5","offer_id":48479682003199,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-05","price":3630.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - With Salt-Free Conditioner \/ Fiberglass \/ 2","offer_id":48479682035967,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-06","price":4186.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - With Salt-Free Conditioner \/ Stainless Steel \/ 1.5","offer_id":48479682068735,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-07","price":4976.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - With Salt-Free Conditioner \/ Stainless Steel \/ 2","offer_id":48479682101503,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-08","price":5242.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - With Softener \/ Fiberglass \/ 1.5","offer_id":48479682134271,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-09","price":2794.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - With Softener \/ Fiberglass \/ 2","offer_id":48479682167039,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-10","price":3439.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - With Softener \/ Stainless Steel \/ 1.5","offer_id":48479682199807,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-11","price":4387.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SMART Whole House Water Filter (9-13 GPM) - With Softener \/ Stainless Steel \/ 2","offer_id":48479682232575,"sku":"CQE-WH-01114-12","price":5068.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/5450\/5983\/files\/crystal_quest-standalone-fiberglass-1-000-000-gallons-smart-whole-house-water-filter-crystal-quest-whole-house-water-filters-2517756969074.webp?v=1777990612","url":"https:\/\/homesteadheavy.com\/products\/crystal-quest-smart-whole-house-water-filter","provider":"Homestead Heavy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
