By: Maggie Pace

Aquasana is excited to announce that our Rhino® 1,000,000 Gallons with Salt-Free Water Conditioner has been selected as the editor's choice for the "Best Whole House Filters" by QualityWaterLab.com. Additionally, our OptimH2O® Whole House Filter was selected as the fourth best whole house filter.

QualityWaterLab.com dedicated hours of research and spoke with experts to put together a list of recommended whole home filtration systems. Each filter was rated on seven criteria:

  1. Contaminant Reduction Capability
  2. System Type and Footprint
  3. Water Capacity
  4. Flow Rate
  5. Filter Cartridges
  6. Softening Capability
  7. Cost

Aquasana’s Rhino® 1,000,000 Gallons with Salt-Free Water Conditioner was voted the “Best Buy in 2020” for a few reasons, including its affordable cost, low maintenance upkeep, and extended warranty coverage.  


Specifically, it was awarded the top spot due to these features:  


  • Generous seven gallon per minute flow rate 
  • Tanks are backed with a 10-year warranty  
  • Low total cost of ownership  
  • Salt-free water conditioning system uses no electricity, produces no wastewater, and is welcomed in ecologically sensitive areas 
  • Salt-free water conditioning system eliminates the need for a water softener in many homes 


Here’s what WaterQualityLab.com said about the Rhino® 1,000,000 Gallons with Salt-Free Water Conditioner: “(It’s) is an investment-level purchase, but you’ll pay a fraction of the price for this two-in-one system than for a filter and softener separately. Low maintenance means a rock-bottom total cost of ownership, and while I wish installation was more DIY-friendly, the peace of mind that comes from knowing the job was done correctly by a professional – plus the extended warranty coverage – make it well worth the effort. Overall, (it’s) is one of our top choices for a whole house water filter for 2020.” 


Our Rhino® 1,000,000 Gallons with Salt-Free Water Conditioner uses long-lasting, high performance water filtration to remove up to 97% of chlorine for great-tasting, healthy water throughout your entire home for one million gallons or up to 10 years. The Rhino® 1,000,000 Gallons with Salt-Free Water Conditioner also reduces other harmful contaminants including heavy metals like lead and mercury, organic chemicals like herbicides, pesticides, and VOCs, industrial solvents, and more.  


Aquasana’s OptimH2O® was voted fourth best on the list, and WaterQualityLab.com touted these features:  


  • Reduces lead, cysts, and PFOA 
  • NSF/ANSI Standards 53 and P473 certified 
  • LED filter change indicator 
  • Won’t reduce water pressure 

Here’s WaterQualityLab.com’s take on the OptimH2O®: “Aquasana makes quality filtration products. Systems are certified, expandable, and easy to maintain. Like the SpringWell, primary replacement filters costs hundreds, but you get what you pay for – contaminant reduction is exceptional and it’s an excellent overall value compare to bottled water.” 


Our OptimH2O® is the ultimate protector for your home and family. Tested and certified, the system reduces more than 99% of lead and cysts, 98% of PFOA/PFOS, and tackles chlorine, chloramines, and more. The OptimH2O® uses an ultra-dense carbon block tank that filters 100,000 gallons or up to 12 months.  


If you’re looking for whole home protection for you and your family, both the Rhino 1,000,000 Gallons® and OptimH2O® will protect against common contaminants found in your tap water. Aquasana instantly transforms ordinary water into clean, extraordinary water.
