We’ve been cruising in PNW and SE AK waters for the last few seasons and have run our water maker sparingly because the water is so nutrient rich that the filters get fouled after running for only 6-8 hours of use. We have 2.5”x10” 25um and 5um pre-filters.
We’re going to be heading south into Mexico and on to Panama and Carib, so I’m looking to stock the boat with filters.
I’m interested in others experience with pre-filter longevity going from nutrient rich waters like PNW vs. Mexico. How long do you pre-filters last in Mexico and more tropical waters?
