Water filter

Our manual was no help and my searches have been less than rewarding. We just got our 2016 Challenger 37KT. It has no cartridge in the water filter housing and I am trying to find out what to buy. Are they all the same size, universal - or do certain rigs have certain filters? They look the same on Amazon, CW, etc BUT I know looks can be deceiving!

Look for a model number, manufacturer on the housing somewhere. Otherwise it's just a WAG.

99% of them are 9.5 inches long and all are interchangeable

Taste and odor or sediment, combo, whatever you like or need

Box stores carry them

Thanks!

I thought they were probably all pretty much alike but I also know the minute I assume something I am dead wrong! Thanks all!

Does your filter housing look like any of these?

If so, Post #3 is correct but they are referred to as standard 10 inch filters despite their actual length.

That is correct regarding the 10 inches referenced

Almost all the wrapped filters with open ends are interchangeably
