Water filters not working

(1/1)

Dennis Hackert:
Why do these new water filters have tiny inlet hole , I plan on drilling it out too 3/8 , any body else have experience with this problem?
I posted this a little prematurely , as I was figuring out how to post and put very minimum info.
I have a WATTS 2 stage system
My new filters are watts Model WP560088 some reason got these when I ordered the ones my manual said-WP500342 . Before installing I observed this tiny 1/8" hole in the inlet end, WTH I said that aint gona work, put them in anyway asking myself why am i doing this?
Anybody else fall into this ditch? Are you all agreed with drilling out 1/8 hole too 3/8 should get us square?
Ok.... that is just one of many minor issues I am fixing
Thank you for any input of someones time here

I had the same problem with small restriction holes in new filters.  I simply drilled them out to 1/2 inch and used them.
