Review on πŸ’§ Enhanced Filtration Remineralization System - iSpring RCC7P AK Performance by Mark Dahmer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

For me, that's everything I hoped for. Three thumbs up! I love the system... and the support!

Although our faucet is actually pretty good, we drink a lot of mineral water; And for the convenience of the occasion, just grab a cold one from the fridge and taste it. I also used half a gallon of distilled water a month in my humidor. I tried reverse osmosis (RO) water, which was converted from seawater in Texas many years ago. The tap water there (without reverse osmosis) tasted like the smell of a lake (which actually didn't bother me too much). I was blown away by how "perfect" the water tasted. I just thought it was time to move on to reverse osmosis... and settled on the 6 stage RCC7P-AK system (I thought about adding photos... You don't need to see mine - it looks like all other). When I bought the system I didn't give much thought to how big it was or how much space it would take up under the sink. The system is massive (and that's a good thing). So... it continues in the basement. An additional benefit is that I chose to connect the outlet to the fridge's water supply. It only took a few more weeks to get the extra hoses and fittings needed for the connections. I cut in the 1/2" supply line to the fridge with quarter turn valves using 3/8" flex pipe compression fittings. Following the well-written instructions and videos, everything went smoothly. I initialized by running water (with carbon particles) in front of the reverse osmosis membrane for 15 minutes (not allowing carbon to get into the membrane) and then looping the accumulator. …. The coffee the next morning was fantastic... while drinking plenty of mineral water we filled the coffee maker from the tap. The difference was that I noticed the caffeine flavor was almost gone by the end of the drink. I'm not Bobby Boucher Jr. but I would argue that the pH rise has a lot to do with it. My wife loves water and says she still prefers bottled water to reverse osmosis water. I scheduled a tasting test and I can report the results here 😊 I was really shocked when Richard from iSpring got back to me (after completing the registration and ticking the box to contact me). Richard wanted to make sure I was happy with their product and asked if I had any questions. In our email exchange I found out why my flow is a bit lower than expected. I have about a 30 foot walk to the sink from the basement. The recommended maximum iSpring is about 15 feet. He suggested a "demand pump"...so a demand pump is on my shopping list. For me, that's everything I hoped for. Three thumbs up! I love the system... and the support!
