Review on 🔴 Manganese Chloride Reducing iSpring WGB22BM by Bryan Hill

First of all, the iron levels in our samples are well below 3.0 ppm. And homes in our area aren't filtered—I just prefer to minimize iron levels in general. Our filter system worked for just over a year. The performance of the system was not sufficient to reduce the iron content in my water. I had received samples from two different organizations, each receiving an unfiltered sample as well as a filtered sample. According to both analyses, the filter reduced iron levels by just 42 percent and didn't even come close to the market-leading "3.0 ppm to 0.01 ppm". I had stains on my fittings even with fresh filter elements. Despite the reduced efficiency, using the advertised "45,000 gallons at 3.0 ppm iron” should have provided a filter life of over 12 months, closer to 18 months; Based on current usage rate, it was 200 gallons per day (we use slightly less). However, over a 15 month period I only used 3 filters to achieve 42 percent efficiency. at $90 per filter. So this month I removed the filter system and installed a softening system. In summary, iSpring was not the right system for my application. Other important points: 1. Installation and hardware - compact and easy to install. I installed mine professionally (new house warranty work). I had no block leaks, all iSpring fittings and venting worked properly. 2. The support team is super professional and responsive. When I contacted them last year, they offered ideas and even sent an improved filter element - their support has been key in sticking with the system for so long. I doubt you will find a more responsive company. 3. Activated carbon filter. If you are thinking of an activated carbon filter, it definitely met my expectations; long service life, no reduction in consumption. 4. Mounting Bracket - I had concerns about this, but the bracket that supports the dual filter housing was able to support the weight of both. A brace is still required between the wall and the housing to reduce the torsion of the filter assembly to the wall. Better yet, use flexible connections to the filter. 5. Replacing the filter - removing the filter housing is problematic - lots of colorful metaphors, the work of two people (anti-torque) to start unscrewing. This may require some "mechanical advantage". However, after the seal had come loose, I was able to completely remove the case by hand. After disassembly I could not find any thread damage; So I can only conclude that the o-rings and seals do the job. Even the company that installed our softening system couldn't disassemble it to dump the weight of the water. Note: The filter housings were only installed with the included plastic wrench and were not over tightened, so be prepared to expand your vocabulary as you change filter elements. impressive decline. And based on our experience, don't expect 45,000 gallon filter element life. I recommend looking into a water softening system (iron reduced) before spending over $600 on less performance.
