There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Buying this system I fully understood what it was for and what it did and what it did not do. I understood this is a water conditioning filter not a water softener (like the traditional salt based water softener). As an earlier reviewer noted, it does bring the hardness of the water down a little bit. You can tell its softer but not a lot and it certainly doesn't have the slimy feel of the traditional water softener. Our well is in mud hole basically. The water is full of orange iron laced sediment. This system handles it beautifully. While the desolved solids are not removed, the water is restructured in such a way that the build up of lime on the fauchets, toilets and toilet bowl have been slowed down and some cases removed. The water tastes good and the carbon filter of the system polishes the water. It is super clear and delicious. I read one one review that showed dark water in the toilet, The only thing I can think of is when it was installed the carbon filter was not flushed long enough before plumbing it to the house. It did take quite a long time for it to run clear during installation. Longer than the 15 minutes the instructions said. The flow is really good, much better then I expected. Even with the amount of sediment coming out of the well, the prefilter lasted a good couple months before the element needed changed. I did not have to change the post filter at that time.
Even though we are on a well, I did not get or want the UV element that is an option. The reason is because I do not feel it is effective for very long. I was a marine aquarist for many years and tried using UV to clean up some tank problems. It worked for about a week until the UV Tube lost its UV output. The tube can appear perfectly fine. It can show that it's lit, etc but it not killing anything. Thats just my experience.
But for someone that needs water treatment and does not want the salt, sliminess and hassle of a traditional water softener, this system is perfect.
Top reviews from other countries
Shut-off valves and Pex components are good quality. You will need some ¾" Pex pipes, a tool to cut the Pex, ¾" crimp rings and a ¾" Pex Crimping Tool to complete the installation (or a plumber ;-)
I have city service for water. The water is not hard, is pretty good, but defineately has an after taste to the unfiltered water. This filter system removed all of the after taste. All of the house water (cold and hot) is filtered by this system. The water tastes great wether directly from the tap or through the fridge dispenser and there is no noticeable drop in presuure.
Shortly after the install, we had a ruptured water main. The supply lines completely seperated from the city line and mud was forced into our water lines. The 20" pre filter prevented a catastrophe. The water in the house was never turbid and none of the faucets, fridge (with water dispenser) or laundry machines were damaged by the dirty water.
