Review on 🏠 Pentek 10-inch Clear Slim Housing by Lance Harrison

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Super tight. Still leaking

Hull leaking! I bought two of these to use in series under the sink to filter my drinking water. I've had them for two years now and nothing but pain. Cannot be wall mounted due to leaking seal. large plastic bucket. After a few months it was 4 inches full of water! Unpleasant. With the help of a filter wrench and a large wrench, I decided I could press the cap tight against the body. Made it VERY thick. .It's still leaking! I went to the local hardware store and bought new o-rings. They fit together perfectly and are also made in China. No difference. Super tight. Still leaking. I thought I could double them by stacking the o-rings, but that's not possible as the top ring isn't held in the groove. I will never buy Pentek again. Oh let me rephrase that, I HOPE I will remember NEVER to buy Pentek products again. I read similar reviews but thought they didn't get it right. In any case, as a Revain customer I just need to go through my old orders and see exactly where I haven't made a wise decision and this is one such case. BAD!

Pros
  • Industrial filter
Cons
  • Some bugs
