The Crystal Quest Big Blue Whole House Water Filter in the SMART Series is a cartridge-based whole-house filtration system designed for homes with roughly 2-3 people and a recommended 6-8 GPM flow rate. This system is available in single, double, and triple configurations, giving buyers multiple cartridge layout options within the Big Blue product line. With 1" or 1-1/2" inlet and outlet options, optional floor-stand support, and no need for electricity or backwashing, it is a practical whole-house filtration option for residential water treatment.
The core of this system is Crystal Quest’s SMART cartridge, which uses a layered treatment process. Crystal Quest describes the cartridge media as including coconut shell granular activated carbon, ion exchange resin, a blend of standard and catalytic coconut-shell granular activated carbon, Eagle Redox Alloys 9500 and 6500, anion exchange resin, and ceramic and tourmaline balls. Crystal Quest markets this media blend for reduction of chlorine, chloramines, volatile organic compounds, pesticides, herbicides, heavy metals, bad taste, and odor in whole-house water treatment applications.
This Big Blue SMART system is available in three layouts. The single configuration includes the SMART filter cartridge. The double configuration adds a carbon block cartridge, and the triple configuration adds both a carbon block cartridge and a sediment cartridge. This gives buyers a choice of single, double, or triple cartridge layouts.
Crystal Quest lists this system as requiring no electricity and no backwashing. The unit uses 5" × 20" cartridges and is designed for easier installation, use, and cartridge changes. Buyers can also choose whether to order the system with or without a floor mount stand.
For buyers who want additional system options, Crystal Quest lists an optional leak detector valve, a 12 GPM ultraviolet water sterilizer, and an optional floor mount stand. Crystal Quest describes the floor mount stand as a lightweight, powder-coated aluminum frame.

This system is a practical fit for households that want cartridge-based whole-house filtration in a central point-of-entry format.
With single, double, and triple cartridge options, buyers can choose the cartridge configuration that matches their preferred system layout.
