Review of Whole House Water Filter Triple 20"

We have had one of these units installed for over a year.I did the installation myself which involved average complexity plumbing including pipe sweating and rerouting as well as the fabrication of appropriate unions and shut offs for the unit.We have it in the basement under the kitchen feeding the kitchen cold faucet, dishwasher and the icemakers.

Installation was fairly difficult as the unit had numerous internal and external leaks resulting from ill-fitting supplied parts.Generally, the unit showed fairly low quality manufacturing with high tolerances, sloppy fit and LOTS of mold flashing as well as sealant and teflon tape on the internal joints to correct the slop.Believe it or not, in order to get the unit to stop leaking at the in and out fittings, I had to use 4 o-rings on the supplied nipples (which were not made to use 0-rings) along with 2 rolls of teflon tape b/c the tolerances were so large.Once installed, the unit functioned fine, until it was time to change the filters.

The filters from CQ are very expensive for what you get.And they don't tell you until after you purchase that they recommend "maintenance" on many of their filters which includes soaking them in salt water and/or peroxide every 6 months.The quality of the filter itself is poor.When I opened up the unit last week to change the filters, the $150 multi stage filter had blown apart and thrown charcoal pellets all over the interior of the unit.In one year.

On the plus side, the support at CQ has been great.Very responsive and very nice folks.

Do yourself a favor and stick to a name brand unit and filters like Pentek.I now use pentek filters in the CQ housing since replacing the housing outright is just too expensive.The filters are of much higher quality and seem to fit just fine even in the QC.And they cost less than 1/3rd of what CQ was trying to charge me for a new set of filters.Good luck.

Review of Crystal Quest 8 stageTriple Big heavy-duty Whole House Water Filter system

I bought this Crystal Quest 8 stage Triple device and have it connect to my whole house. the device is working fine have not decreased the water pressure at all (something that you need to be careful when selecting a whole-house water purifier.). I'm still confused with the filtering system and what and when I should buy filters. I was also happy with the seller "Filter Water". The unit was delayed by a few days so they emailed me and gave me credit even though I did not mind! I would shop from them again (next house or filters).

Review of Aquasana 6 Pack of Glass Decanters - AQ-6000

I use these to take water to work everyday. I have broke about 5 of them so far. It's very hard to travel with these without breaking them! The only complaint I have is that these bottles are obviously two recycled bottles mended together, and not very well. They do hold up though if you're careful with them. I didn't have problems with the plastic lids. I have 12 of ...I mean 7 of them.

Review of Aqua-Pure AP117NP Universal Whole House Filter Replacement Cartridge for Chlorine, Dirt and Rust Reduction, 2-Pack

When I need to replace the filter for my cuno whole house filter system.I use the Aqua Pure filter. It eliminates all the chlorine from my water and I have the best water around. Without this filter all you smell is the chlorine. I hated taking showers or cooking when my filters ran out. They tend to be more expensive then anything I could find at the local home improvement stores but, the quality of the filter is far more superior than anything these stores carried.

Review of Omni Corporation U25 Whole House Water Filter System with Clear Housing

Yes, the TO1 carbon filter removes most of the chlorine taste, and installation is pretty easy. As one reviewer has indicated, it's hard to keep the filter housing from leaking. It's really due to the poor finish inside the opening into which the filter cannister is screwed. There are some rough seams that prevent the o-ring from seating perfectly. Minor adjustments are needed to obtain a leak-free fitting. BUT - and this is what they don't tell you - the unit has a life of FIVE years. Omni says that after five years, the plastic parts (that's every part, folks) will have degraded to the point of imminent failure. The instruction manual requires that you replace the clear plastic lower unit (cannister) every five years, or "costly repairs or water damage" may result. I contacted Omni, since I could find no source for the lower unit, and they told me that the ENTIRE UNIT MUST BE REPLACED EVERY FIVE YEARS, as all the plastic will have degraded to the point of failure by then. Doesn't say much for the quality of their product, does it?
