Great Product in Replacement Water Filter

Excellent filtration system. Great value for money. Installation was a little tricky as the intake and exhaust valves were custom sizes. I had to get brass adapters to make it work with a plastic tube. But it works great and I'm happy.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Requires Outlet

great price for a very handy bracket already fitted

great price for a very handy bracket already fitted. for the price you save yourself a lot of trouble. Now I use this all the time in my kitchen - just make sure you get the right attachments from Amazon as Homedepot etc don't usually come in this size. If you do, getting this setup up and running under your kitchen sink will be a breeze. bye brit :)

Pros
  • decent performance
Cons
  • compatibility

It was a bit difficult to find 3/8 " connections

At first this is a well built unit, but it feels a little flimsy when hanging on the wall. Maybe I'm used to jerking off on things that are heavier than they should be? It is very durable and will serve its purpose well for many years. The hard part. Most fittings these days are IP 1/4", IP 1/2" or IP 3/4". 4" I got a 3/8" unit. It was a bit difficult to find the hardware that I was looking for, but in the end I was able to find compression elbows from 3/8"IP to 3/8" and compression elbows from

  • Large selection

The coupler should be full length brass, not a short piece of plastic.

Filter housing and brackets in good condition. The clutch leaked between the two heads on 1 of 2 of them. I recommend replacing the short, cheap plastic that came with the kit with a brass one, which is longer and more durable. It's easier to do this before installing. I used this one: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B000FNH26W It had to be brass first as you will be tightening two casings when using the wrench. I like that the o-ring on these Pentek cases is countersunk in this model and theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • EQUIPPED WITH A PRESSURE RELEASE BUTTON to relieve pressure in the housing during cartridge changes
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
