Description of ISpring WGB21BM 2-Stage Whole House Water Filtration System, 10” X 4.5” Carbon Block And Iron & Manganese Reducing Filters, 1" Ports

[Two-Stage Effective Filtration] Our featured 2nd stage filter (FM15B) is specially designed for iron & manganese removal, reducing iron (Max 3.0 ppm down to 0.01 ppm) and manganese (Max 1.0 ppm down to 0.01 ppm). Using high quality coconut shell carbon and highly compact fabrication tech, 1st-stage CTO filter(FC15B) knocks out cloudiness as well as bad tastes and odors, removes over 90% of chlorine, and is highly effective on VOCs like herbicides and industrial solvents. iSpring WGB21BM is THE system you need to protect your family and household appliance from iron, manganese, and more. [Easy Installation and Filter Change] The system comes pre-assembled onto the mounting bracket for a streamlined, DIY installation. Filter wrench included to make routine filter changes easy and quick. Refer to our manual and our helpful YouTube videos to install this point-of-entry (POE) filtration system at the main water supply to get clean and healthy water for the entire family. With 1” NPT inlet/outlet and 10” x 4.5” filter cartridges, the system has a minimum impact on water flow (up to 15 GPM) and requires minimum maintenance. [Top-Notch Quality] The first stage CTO Carbon Block filter is made of high-quality coconut shell carbon for maximum filtration efficiency and filter life. It is tested by an independent third-party to meet NSF/ANSI standards. The iron and manganese reducing filter lasts up to 3 times longer than greensand due to the catalytic media not being consumed in the process. Those filters have a filtration capacity of up to 50,000 gallons of water, enough to supply a family of four with clean water for up to a year. [Peace-of Mind Customer Service] Backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee, 1-year warranty, and extended manufacturer warranty upon warranty registration at iSpring. Lifetime CS and tech support from Atlanta, GA USA. We stand behind our products. If you encounter any problems with any of our products, please reach out to us immediately. We are happy to help!. [Please Note] This system is installed at the main water supply line in order to treat all the water in your home. For well/pond water with very high iron/manganese please contact us for customized solutions. Unlike an RO system, this system will NOT reduce Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and instead keeps healthy minerals in your water. If you are interested in a filter that removes TDS, please consider our iSpring Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems RCC7 series or tankless RO500.

Fantastic product and support

The filter system is great. It has reduced the sediment in my water system as well as making the water taste better.I had an issue with one of the canisters. It froze and cracked due to the cold. I reached out the there support to a request a new canister. Sean replied very quickly and help get me a replacement it a timely manner. The product is well worth the price and their support is very responsive.

Amazing how much these filters catch

I installed this when my new house was completed and I'm so glad I did! My bathroom and kitchen fixtures don't have all of the hard water stains and blockage that my friends and family living near me do. The filters are reasonably priced and easy to change. It truly amazes me how dirty they are when I change them, I'm thankful that my family isn't consuming all that! Also, my fixtures and appliances (water heater, washing machine, dishwasher and ice maker) are protected from all the sediment…

Pros
  • Easy to install with 1" ports
Cons
  • May not remove all contaminants

ISpring WGB21B whole house system

I would definitely get this WGB21B iSpring whole house system if anyone is in need of filtration system in their home. My plumber also recommended it. Ordered on Best Buy and he installed it in my garage. I have changed the filters out according to recommended timeframe and it is easy.Brian from ISpring Water Systems was also a great help with questions on canister O Rings as I wanted to keep spares on hand in case I need them in two or three years. The system is great, Brian at customer…

Pros
  • It was easy to install and was able to get good tech support.

  • Requires professional installation

Works as expected!: my feedback

I installed this filtration system almost two years ago and have changed filters a couple times with no issues. Was easy enough to put in if you have an idea what you're doing to some degree. I'm using it as a pre softener filter. It's been working as expected. Keep track of water usage and change filters as needed, no problems. You'll see what its doing when you make the filter swap. Our water used to change color when the city flushed water lines. Not any more. Plus it keeps all that out of…

Pros
  • Enhances the quality of shower water
Cons
  • May not fit in all water heater closets

Customer Service: my feedback

I purchased this water system a few months ago and just had it installed last week.There was a slight issue with a one of the "housing" parts that caused a leak. My husband called the company and spoke to Michele and she asked us to send her our purchase order from Best Buy so she could rectify the problem. I sent out the information on Sunday afternoon and she responded on Monday and will be sending out the part ASAP!We had a plumber install this and he is willing to come and put the new part

Pros
  • Kitchen & Bath Fixtures
Cons
  • Bulky and takes up a lot of space

Good for limited space

Would like to have had the 3 filter unit but due to very limited space in my small main floor utility room I chose this one. My crawlspace is unheated in my small ranch therefore the only place for the well pressure tank, washing machine and filters was the utility room. I replaced my pressure tank and manifold at the same time. I had no problem installing. Used 2 pieces of 1/2" x 3-1/4" solid wood trim I had extra and mounted between studs one on top of the other and two lag screws through the

Pros
  • Filter cartridges are easy to replace
Cons
  • May not fit in tight spaces

Good filter, but sensitive to leaks around the threads

I have installed several filters similar to this during my 12 years of as a Plumber. This filter went into my own house. I chose this one because the cost was good, and the unit seemed heavy and solid. I did run into some issues after I installed it. I used reducers to get down to 3/4”, good quality tape and pipe dope just as I have always done. The fittings went into the housing very loosely. I was a little concerned but was cautious of over tightening and breaking the plastic housing. The…

Pros
  • Filters water quickly
Cons
  • May require additional equipment for effective iron and manganese reduction

Nice filter system -but had a tiny leak

I purchased this twin tank system for my RV. Unit came very well packaged and I was very impressed with the initial quality. Thick steel mount, thick walled tanks gave me a sense of quality. I knew in advance this system does not come terminated on the input and output so I put on my own fittings. In my case I wanted garden hose fittings.The output side worked very well, easy install, no leaks. However, no amount of tape or plumbers putty would stop a small persistent leak on the input side. In

Pros
  • I recommend this product for anyone looking for a whole house water filter.
Cons
  • Expensive initial investment

Great filter for my opinion

Installation was the same as any filter system. Make sure you’re bushings/fittings are extra doped, Teflon’d or use string. Pressure didn’t seem to take any kind of reduction that I can notice. Filters are reasonably priced but always keep an eye on the sediment filter until you see how your water quality affects the lifespan. Water comes out noticibly more aerated but clears up quickly. Tastes perfectly fine, my water taste was pretty good to start but it’s lateral for me in that area. The…

Pros
  • Fits comfortably in tight spaces
Cons
  • May not be as convenient as smaller, portable filters

Grade A customer service!

Pretty good product for the price. I have the 50 micron pre sediment filter before the main 2 stage filter with carbon and the iron filter. What is best about the product is the customer service. I gave it a 4 star rating because although it’s a good product I wish there was a small change done to this unit.The main housing cracked on the outlet side causing a small leak I believe it was my fault (overtorqued). I wish they added a steel or Atleast brass insert. Luckily I had a bypass line so I…

Pros
  • Provides clean, purified water for the entire household
Cons
  • Installation process can be time-consuming

Great for a tight spot!

I installed 2 of these units in apartment buildings where space was tight. They have been installed for a few years now and replacing the cartridges is simple and the water is great. iSpring customer care is fantastic as well during any stage of your process!

Pros
  • Uses a two-stage filtration system for maximum purification
Cons
  • May not remove all sediment from water

Cons
  • Replacement filters can be costly

Wonderful Customer Service

We have had a problem with black mold in the faucets and showerheads, apparently caused by excess manganese in the water. I researched various filtering systems and chose the iSpring WGB21BM 2-Stage Whole House Water Filtration System to hopefully solve this. I also bought the iSpring Spin Down Sediment Water Filter. My shutoff valve is in my garage next to the water heater. I don't have any free walls in the garage near the shutoff valve, so I installed it next to the water heater. Because of…

Pros
  • Protects against harmful microorganisms
Cons
  • May not fit all types of water softeners

Great Response and Help

I installed my whole house water filter system and the head had a leak. Mayra, from iSpring Water Systems, replied to my issue in a very short time and sent me a replacement. I really appreciate the customer service that Mayra provided.

Pros
  • Reduces iron and manganese in the water
Cons
  • Not suitable for homes with low water pressure

High quality system, very good value!

When I opened the package I I was plesently surprized, this filtration system is very well built. I did not experience any noticible loss of water pressure with the 1" thread IN/OUT. I used pex and sharkbites all aournd and everything is working great. I think the big filter catriges should last at least 6 months to a year.Great value!

Pros
  • Compatible with most plumbing systems
Cons
  • Can be difficult to clean and sanitize

Cons
  • May require additional maintenance over time

Amazing tech support and customer service

Michele and Sean were both extremely helpful when I called to first inquire about ordering, then to replace a part after I cross threaded the inlet/outlet. I got the replacement the next day! I still have to install, but with pex it will be simple and I’m sure the water quality will be great. Will update with that soon! Thank you iSpring!Update: Installed today and was short one fitting, so I will go back and shorten the inlet pex at some point. Mounted the bracket to two pieces of angle iron…

Pros
  • Saves money on water bills by improving efficiency
Cons
  • Can be difficult to install without professional help

Now that's what I call customer service

You don't know how good a company is until you have a problem. We installed a 2 stage whole house filter just for our kitchen sink because we didn't want to install an additional faucet and change filters too often. My wife didn't like the taste of the tap water even though it passed the water tests with flying colors.so we decided on the Ispring because it removed all the stuff that would make the water taste bad while leaving most of the minerals that make the water taste good. After…

Pros
  • Provides peace of mind knowing that water is clean and safe to use
Cons
  • May not be optimal for all water filtration needs

ISpring makes great water filters

I researched different whole house water filters for several weeks and ended up with I Spring. I saw several reviews stating that they were experiencing leaks and a couple reviews even said the main housing cracked during installation. in my opinion these are the best water filters out there in this price range. The main bodies; (what the water lines attach to and the filter canisters screw into), is indeed plastic. but it is very thick and substantial - I was quite impressed and very pleased…

Pros
  • Increases the value of the home
Cons
  • May require additional equipment for effective water treatment
