Have to clean the filter too often

I think this filter has helped the clarity of my drinking water. However, I am having to clean this filter every 2 weeks to restore the water flow. I have a 3 stage countertop system, and I placed this filter in the 3rd stage after reading more about ceramic filters and hoping to avoid cleaning it as often. Didn’t work. I will not buy this filter again for that reason.

If you have lots of sediment or whatnot in your water, you will have to clean it more often as it is doing its job and filtering it out of your water. It should go in the first stage, so it keeps sediment and stuff from going through your other filters and prolongs the life of those filters.
