Description of Silver 3MRO401 Reverse Osmosis Filtration System by 3M for Sinks

CLEANER DRINKING WATER: Filter reduces particulates*, chlorine taste and odor, arsenic (pentavalent), barium, cadmium, chromium, copper, cysts, fluoride, lead, radium, selenium, TDS and turbidity. EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE OF REVERSE OSMOSIS: System uses a multi-stage reverse osmosis and the technology leverages pressure to force water through a semipermeable membrane to deliver a higher level of filtration than some traditional methods. NSF TESTED AND CERTIFIED FILTRATION: Features a sediment and 5-micron carbon pre-filter and an additional post-filter. Tested and certified (NSF/ANSI Standard 42, 58 and CSA B483.1) to reduce a wide range of contaminants that may be present in local water supply. DEDICATED POLISHED CHROME FAUCET: System includes an elegant faucet with a side handle. Requires a 1⁄2” hole or can be fitted into an existing 1-3/8” standard hole with included adapter. Uses a 3/8” NPT quick connect push-in connection. REPLACE FILTERS QUICKLY WITHOUT TOOLS: Sanitary Quick Change (SQC) design allows for fast and easy filter cartridge change-outs (just a quarter turn) without contacting and potentially contaminating filter media or using a filter wrench. VOLUME TO MEET YOUR NEEDS: Post filter has a 1,500 gallon capacity and reverse osmosis module production rate of 11.48 gallons/day (43.46 liters). Storage tank automatically turns on to refill and shuts off to promote water conservation.

This is a great product

Instructions were written by a technical writer but not in a user friendly format which is a shame. Poor instructions aside, the hardware is top notch which is why I bought a 3M product.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Expensive insurance

Difficult setup, but so far so good!

Not very helpful instructions (according to our plumber) but we managed to get it working in the end. The water tastes great and this product has been discounted compared to buying from a local showroom.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Minor issues

Worst guide

I can't believe there isn't a diagram showing the connections I have instead of about 10 systems and the guide was so bad I just put it back in a plastic container , no teflon tape and cheap spout . The used name 3M means something very sad and a waste of time, Ed

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Not bad

Tasty water but confusing instructions

I replaced my old complex PurePro water filtration system with this one because it felt smaller and simpler and the cartridges were easy to replace. The installation guide was very confusing and not very clear. There was no drawing of the upper part of the system with colored hoses and a description of the connections. Once the plumber and I figured it out and installed it, it was easy. The cartridges click and release easily and the system is much more compact than my old one. The water tastes

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

The good, the bad and the ugly

Pros: - The quality of the system (filters and included accessories) is top notch. except for the included faucet - 3M branded and guaranteed - well designed system and space optimized - Revain price for this reverse osmosis filtration system ($470) was HALF of what the plumber/installer quoted meCONs: - installation instructions are very grim ( missing parts, missing part id chart, missing part sizes, limited graphics charts - and they are black and white not color) - The included…

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Protection

Installation was no joke, but water tastes good

Instructions are shockingly confusing - definitely written by an engineer! They could really improve this product with more detailed instructions as this unit can definitely be installed by an experienced homeowner and the cost savings are well worth it. I've been a fan of 3M's under-counter filtration systems for years and wasn't aware of this offering. But as I moved into my new home and considered the possibilities of reverse osmosis, it was the 3M brand that I trusted the most. recommends…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Low maintainability
