Attention, it's not as easy as it looks, additional costs

The instructions do not say that the reverse osmosis membrane housing is EXTREMELY difficult to open and requires additional tools not available. You have to make an extra trip to the store to buy a large, expensive tool. It negates the purpose of the system's budget countertop.

Pros
  • Water filtration and softening
Cons
  • Minor repairability

Apec Countertop Filter

I got these filters for my APEC countertop reverse osmosis water filter. We rent so this is the best water filter for our needs. These filters work as they should. Just make sure you secure them well and you shouldn't have any leaks. I have tap water at 220ppm with no filter and around 5-12ppm with filter.

Pros
  • Kitchen & Bathroom Faucets
Cons
  • Poorly Thought Out

APEC benchtop filter

I bought these filters for my APEC benchtop reverse osmosis filter. We rent so this is the best water filter for our needs. These filters work as they should. Just make sure you secure them well and you shouldn't have any leaks. I have tap water at 220ppm with no filter and around 5-12ppm with filter.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things

Instructions are hard to follow

You should provide a quick flowchart with pictures. Get rid of all words. When you take everything apart and there's water everywhere, it's very confusing. It's pretty simple: CT-1SED > CT-24CAB > big MEM90 filter (image with big black ring at the end) > CT-24CAB. Cut out all other instructions. Only pictures. A simple chart. That's all you need to know. It's very difficult to understand without reading the instructions for 20 minutes, especially when the paper gets wet and you have to

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • High price

ATTENTION. You will likely need a strap wrench to open the diaphragm housing. It's wrapped very, very tightly. Most people won't be able to open it with their bare hands. While Apec sells a special wrench just for this job, you can buy a general-purpose strap wrench for the same price as this and other jobs. So I would say a strap wrench is the best idea. You may also need a way to secure the case, e.g. B. with a vise. If you don't have a vise, you can use two strap wrenches that go in opposite

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable
