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 when i got them. When you pick one up you instantly notice the weight . these things are beefy! I would suggest putting 6 or 7 complete wraps of Teflon tape around the fitting that you screw in to the housing. In doing that, I have not had any leaks and the unit has been installed for 3 weeks. Also , you do not need to over tighten the fitting, I used a 10 in wrench to reduce leverage and just put reasonable force into it. The filters themselves also are quite beefy and appear to be capable of significant loading before you see a noticeable pressure drop. just this week I have noticed an improvement in the water taste and starting to notice a difference in the reduction of water spots on dishes after washing, etc. I think it will take a couple months for all the water pipes to clean out a bit before the real difference is apparent. I had a cheaper system about 5 years ago and ended up ripping it out about a year later because of leaks and constantly replacing the filters. Then this summer I decided to try a better system. I highly recommend this product and more importantly this manufacturer. On a side note, I also ordered a 4th stage which is not installed yet; (the flex line will be replaced with rigid copper once I get the 4th stage installed). It was the big blue 20" filter and it did not come with the mounting bracket . my bad. I contacted ISpring and they told me that the bracket is not included with the one i ordered. But in the same breath they said that their customer satisfaction is most important and they are sending me one completely free of charge without me even asking. So just stop reading reviews and order their products and get your water quality increased !
