💧 APEC FILTER SET: Enhance Water Purity with Premium Replacement Pre Filter Review

Bought because they are made in the USA and I am suspicious of Asian food and health products. Since they last 2x longer than standard imported filters, they're also a better deal since they're not 2x more expensive. Installation is easy, the instructions are clear and if you follow them, the job takes about 30 minutes. If you don't have a reverse osmosis key, order one, it's worth it. I used an oil filter tape to move the housing the required 1/4" inch. Then it unscrews easily. Put some…

Where I live we have "city water" but it really is a public fountain. The water here is VERY hard. The last time I tested it for water softener size, I hovered at around 30 grains per gallon (that's about three times what the WQA considers "very hard water"). There are also tons of sediment. At the tap, we're around 600 ppm with my reliable water tester. Not that "I once used a glass I wasn't sure about and got 571 ppm," but "in new plastic cups that were washed with distilled water, the…

I hate to write bad reviews but it was necessary in case someone had the same problem. Bought these filters over 1.5 years ago. They have been working great and have been for over 1.5 years which has been fantastic so I recently went back to buy a new set from the same seller. This time they failed completely. It had a strong chemical taste and nobody in the house could tell the difference between the tap water and the "filtered" water. I sent them back and received a new set. The same thing…

We have Apec RO 45 to drink under the sink. The system has been in operation since 2009 and the only thing we have had to change so far is these three filters that have to be made annually from city water and 6 months from a well. I like to judge timing by looking at the clear canister, and if it's close to timing and looking messy, it's time to switch. Now it was little more than buying it from the manufacturer's website. I think it was about a $2 difference but we wanted it replaced ASAP so…

I replaced all filters and membranes on my RO-45 in September 2019. Earlier this month my reverse osmosis system stopped producing water (the reverse osmosis tank is empty). My appliance is 10 years old and I've never had a problem (most likely because my water softener reduces water hardness). This reminded me to change the filters and I placed my order. After I discussed my problem of no water production with APEC, they indicated that the problem could be low water pressure, clogged filters…

2. UPDATE A: Me downgraded the stars because we were getting a lot of mineral deposits that we didn't get with the original kit, but to be honest the product doesn't claim to remove minerals. I know these filters weren't specifically designed for mineral filtration, but the first kit we had worked much better than these, so I have nothing to compare them to. I will say after a few months they seem to filter out more solid minerals probably because they are saturated and to be honest I'm fine…
