There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I was adding this filter to a wet bar sink, so there was not much room under the cabinet, and I really needed not to have a separate faucet, as there was no space for it. The installation was easy (two screws to hold the bracket to the side of the cabinet - while the bracket seems to slide out of the screw, so it is not firmly fixed in place, it is stable and that is adequate), and the filter inserts with a twist.
The plumbing was easy - if your fittings do not need to be replaced. In my case the risers (from the hot and cold shutoff valves up to the underside of the faucets) were old copper fittings, and didn't quite stretch to the new positions, so a trip to the hardware store was required to replace them with newer, flexible, risers. Once that was done, inserting the Filtrete fitting between the riser and shutoff, and back to the faucet, was simple.
One word of advice - the included blue tubes which push in to the fitting on the filter bracket push in a short distance and stop. I stopped there, and when I turned on the water, they leaked. I checked the instructions, which said to push the blue tubes in HARD until they stop. When I did it again, they went past the first "stop" and went in noticeably farther. This time there was no leak.
When I turned on the tap and let the water run for 7 minutes, as recommended, all seemed well. But when I returned to use it later, it was only a trickle. Clearly this was not "full water flow." I had noticed some charcoal particles loose on the outside of the filter, which I assumed resulted from shipment. I contacted the manufacturer, who, after verifying the model, said this was probably charcoal from the filter, and, if so, the filter may have been damaged in shipment. To verify, she suggested I try the unit without using the filter, to see if pressure returned. It did not, but I also noticed that my hot water (which was not filtered) was also running just as slowly. I suspected that something was blocking the water at the output spigot, rather than in the cold water line, as it was affecting both hot and cold. I removed and cleaned the output, and found some bits of charcoal caught in the small filter at the end of it (I should point out that the customer service agent informed me that there is a higher model that uses a one-piece filter, where this type of problem can not occur).
Re-assembling, I turned on the tap and found very near full water pressure. It is definitely not "full water flow" - as in 100% of what it was without a filter. However, it is probably in the vicinity of 85%, which is more than adequate for my use.
In summary, installation was indeed easy and quick, but subject to normal home plumbing issues. If there are charcoal bits loose in the filter package, you may need to clean them out if they are caught in the faucet output filter, but the filter really does do the job, and water flow remains good. I'm pleased with it.
Overall good install and pure tasting water.
Installation Advice:
Check your supply connection. Measure the diameter of the supply lines to see if they are 3/8" (outer diameter of .5" typically). If they are 3/8", you'll have no problems and installation will take less than 30 minutes. You don't really need to know how to use anything but a wrench if this is the case.
If you have 1/2" connections, you will need to go to the hardware store to get adapters. The instruction manual does not give any advice on what type (it literally says go to the hardware store). When you go to the hardware store take the connection piece from the filter system AND the supply line for your sink (obviously turn the water off first). Use these parts to get the right connections - remember you will need TWO conversion pieces for the two separate connections needed for installation (one into the sink, one at the supply source). Once you have the right parts, installation isn't too much more difficult - you just have a few adapters to put on first.
BEFORE YOU MOUNT: consider putting the filtration system on the side of your sink cabinet - NOT the back. The back tends to be less supportive and the force used to get the filter bottle in or the force from turning on the water can easily rip the screws out.
I also found this youtube video to be far more helpful than the instructions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jt8LmYITx-8
