Review on πŸ’§ Enhance Water Filtration with Tier1 Replacement GXRTQR Inline Filter by Samantha Hudson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Inlet Fittings Leaking

Installed the first of three ordered on an inline system I've been using for years and the inlet fitting was leaking on the threads. Disassembled and found very little sealant on the threads. I put on some teflon tape and tried again. It's leaked. I tried a Rector 5 thread sealant that I used in an industrial setting and it leaked. The factory installer must have overtightened and loosened the threads. I tried the second of the three ordered, it leaked too! I disassembled the intake fitting again and found very little thread sealant. I put some teflon tape on it and so far it's holding up. Either it's a manufacturing issue with the thread size, or the technicians putting them together are being overbearing. This can be a problem if you're installing under a sink and it's out of place, out of mind. The next thing you know, your cabinets are water damaged. Need more attention to details or printing test before shipping.
