Congratulations, I think you'll gone to like this filter and in the winter it takes you a whole 2 seconds to remove the filter and you can put it in your pocket to keep it warm or just shake the remaining water out of it after you pump out the remaining water in the system. It's a very good filter and even easier to maintain. Very simple and straight forward.

Grouch, glad to help, I was just trying to say that you'll be spending way more money on the Vario in the long run with replacement filters at $40 a pop vs the combi at 13000 gallons before filter change and a 2 micron filter vs the Vario's 3 micron filter.
