There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
5 out of 5 all day, I’m going to save so much on bottled water enjoying the crisp water right under my yard.
Pros:
1. 10% larger than the compact 3-stage Aquasana 5300+ unit. However, if you compare components side-by-side, you can see the robustness of this unit. The tell-tale signs are the metal mounting base and the thickness of the filter cases. You can see the differences immediately.
2. Filters are larger and denser. Robustness is the word.
3. Easy installation. The parts are practically married to the existing parts under the sink. I took it slow, used all the provided parts, and ensured total sealing during installation. Not even a drop of water dripped from any part. Knock on wood of course. It's been close to a month, and still not a drop of water anywhere. I learned my lessons from the Aquasana, and I placed a thin plastic bucket and water leakage alarm as I did for my water heater. Better to be safe than sorry with a tiny investment.
4. The flow of the filtered water is phenomenal. Twice to thrice the volume of the Aquasana 5300+ in a given minute. I have to crank the cold water supply way down just to prevent the filtered water from jetting out like a hydrobeam.
5. Long filters' lifespan. Aquasana's filters literally forced you to replace every 6 months, but I tend to delay things a bit longer after evaluating the filters for the prior years. The first stage filter turned completely yellow. Since the unit's filter is confident in lasting up to 12 months, we'll definitely need to see the claim. I'll be sending in the filters for testing to verify the bold claims.
Cons:
Yes, there are downsides to this but do read things through before making your decision.
1. The faucet unit is not completely water-tight. What do I mean? The looseness of the faucet body is the downfall in allowing the water to bottom. When you plan on spraying down the sink to clean it, don't spray on the faucet body where the tube turns. A small amount of water will make it through the bottom. The base of the faucet body is not a problem at all. Perfectly sealed. I added silicone sealer to the base just in case during installation. No water can make its way through the bottom of the faucet unit's base.
2. The higher the flow, the cloudier the water for the first few minutes. If you want that clear water without the cloudiness, turn the pressure down and allow the water to flow out slowly. We don't care. We just want fast water coming out. After sending the filtered water in for testing, we already know the filtered level.
3. Taste can be a tad off for the new filters. Don't expect your water to taste plain and unflavored. It does have an odd light plastic and carbon (coal-like) taste at the start. However, that goes away in a few days of continual usage. We flushed the line for 15 minutes at max pressure the unit will allow (well below the 80 psi warning) before the first use as well.
I'm happy with the unit so far. I'll update along the way if something goes wrong.
unit that came from an eBay seller and it never stopped tasting like the plastic cannisters after several months.
I replaced that with a Kenmore 2 chamber unit that worked fine but one of the chambers cracked and started leaking
after about 4 years. Sears discontinued that model.
The Apec filter takes the same 9-3/4" cartridges that the other
models use, which is nice if you have a stock of replacement filters like me. The installation was fairly easy, although
the adapters were not the same as shown in the manual. As with most plumbing projects, I had to go to the hardware store to buy parts to get it up and running. My setup already had a separate ball valve and 1/2" male pipe
thread connection, I had to buy a 1/2" female to female brass elbow and a 1/2" male to 1/4" brass compression adapter to connect to the filter's tubing inlet. I did not use the supplied needle valve.
Compared to the Kenmore's 3/8" tubing, the water flow through the Apec's 1/4" tubing is a bit slower, it would be
nice if they used 3/8" tubing.
The only other issue was mounting the filter, the flange had two slot-hole mounts, but they were behind the
cannisters and mounted sideways. Vertical slot-holes would be much easier to work with since they could hold
the filter steady with gravity.
I installed a small piece of wood that was spaced from the cabinet with washers and fits under the mounting flange.
I installed another piece of wood that keeps the cannister bottoms in a vertical position. Now everything can be
lifted in and out with no tools, which will be nice when it's time to change the filters.
Despite the various issues, the water tastes good and the quality of the filter is good so I would recommend it
to others.
