KW1 water filter
I have a question regarding the KW1 water filters. Last fall when I winterized, I took out the KW1 water filter and put it in a zip-lock bag and put in our basement fridge. Do you think it would be safe to reuse???

Depends??? Personally air dried filter is safer the sealing it in a bag with shoe know what bacteria in the water.

When in doubt replace it. Depending on the amount of use and water quality they should be replaced periodically anyways.

I would not reuse it, use a new one each season.
You feel safe reusing it ?
