## Description

Claryum Direct Connect is Aquasana's easy to install, fast-flowing water filter that connects directly to your existing faucet for instant access to clean, healthy water for 784 gallons or up to 6 months. Aquasana’s Claryum filtration technology is IAPMO certified to NSF/ANSI Standards 42, 53, and 401, for the reduction of over 97% of chlorine and chloramines, 99% of microplastics and lead, and 96% of PFOA/PFOS. It’s also certified to reduce mercury, chlorine-resistant cysts, herbicides, pesticides, VOCs, pharmaceuticals, and more. In all, it tackles 15X more contaminants than the leading pitcher filter. Claryum's selective filtration technology retains naturally occurring beneficial minerals found in water like calcium, potassium, and magnesium for healthier, more delicious water. One large, powerful filter combines activated and catalytic carbon with ion-exchange and sub-micron filtration, so water is expertly filtered to reduce 78 contaminants while retaining beneficial minerals. One filter replaces more than 6,250 plastic water bottles. Get instant access to filtered water from any existing faucet – no dedicated faucet required. Claryum Direct Connect attaches to your cold water line to filter water for drinking, washing vegetables, watering plants, and more. With easy installation, this is the perfect filter for DIYers.

Review: Purchased due to PFAS readings from our municipal water supply. The certifications were important to me and I didn't trust filters that supposedly last years. 6 months seems right, and while it's a new household expense, it seems worth it after installation. The parts & instructions were well made & written. Based on another helpful review, I purchased 3 inexpensive extra parts that eliminated the white piece that connects directly to the water supply line since it seemed to improve durability and ensure good flow. I hope they might upgrade their parts package to do this for future customers. The filter is long, and the best way to install under my sink was horizontal, which made it harder to reach the furthest screws, but not impossible, and now replacement is that much easier. Upon first test, heard the water try and make its way through but there was almost no flow. Long story short, something made its way to the faucet head, which once I cleaned it out, the flow seemed almost (90% or more) like pre-install. (Sigh of relief). I also had to reseat the connectors to the filter head housing to ensure no leaking. I put a small container underneath just to be sure, but it's been dry since day one. Water tastes very good, and it feels good to have done the best we can to improve the quality / health of our drinking water.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What nsf certifications does this have exactly? i do not see listed on nsf site for having 401 or 473. aquasana response only please.**
A: The AQ-MF-1 is independently tested and certified to NSF standards by IAPMO. You can find the certificates on the IAPMO Product Listing website under file numbers: WP-10706 for NSF 42, WP-10707 for NSF 53 which now includes PFOA/PFOS, WP-11684 for NSF P473-2016, and WP-12506 for NSF/ANSI 401-2017a.

**Q: I can use this and skip the extra faucet? Enough filtered water to get through hand washing, dishwashing etc?**
A: If you mean you want to connect the cold water line of your kitchen faucet to this filter, then Yes. However, the filter is going to severely reduce the flow of cold water. You're going to find that extremely annoying.

Additionally, having so much water filtered (not just for drinking but also for your handwashing, food washing, dishwashing) means your filter is going to get clogged sooner. You're going to have to buy/replace this filter several times a year instead of just twice a year.

**Q: Will this filter remove trihalomethane?**
A: Yes. The performance data sheet indicates that this filter removes 95% of four substances listed as trihalomethanes (THMs) - bromodichloromethane, bromoform, chloroform, and chlorodibromomethane.

**Q: I want convert it to flow in its own dedicated spout and I have low water pressure in a rural county, would you recommend this?**
A: It would be perfectly fine.

*by S***S on 7 January 2026*

Installing this under-sink filter made a noticeable difference in how my tap water tastes and smells. Chlorine is basically gone, and the water has a clean, crisp taste that makes it more enjoyable to drink straight from the tap instead of relying on separate pitchers or bottled water. I also like knowing it handles more than just basic chlorine—things like lead and other contaminants—without needing a bulky multi-stage setup cluttering the cabinet. Setup was pretty straightforward for an under-sink system. The direct-connect design is convenient: you hook it into the cold-water line and it feeds the existing faucet instead of adding another separate spout. Once installed, water flow stayed strong enough for everyday use—filling pots, rinsing dishes, and cooking doesn’t feel painfully slow the way some filters do. The cartridge is simple to swap out when it’s time, and the footprint under the sink is compact enough that it doesn’t hog storage space. If there’s a trade-off, it’s that you do still feel some slight reduction in flow compared to totally unfiltered tap, and you have to remember to replace the cartridge on schedule to keep performance up. But for the improvement in taste and the extra peace of mind about what’s coming out of the faucet, it’s very reasonable. Overall, it’s a solid upgrade that makes everyday drinking and cooking water feel noticeably cleaner without turning the plumbing into a science project.
