I just bought a house and the filter needs changing but I can't budge the housing on the inline water filter. I have the plastic wrench that came with the unit I'm afraid if I apply any more pressure I'll tear the whole piping system apart. The filer is on of those whole house filters and the whole unit it plastic. Is there a safe penetrating agent I can spray up into and on on the housing threads that might help loosen it. Yes I an turning it the correct direction. Any ideas? Thanks.
