EXPRESS WATERExpress Water Whole House Water Filter, 1 Stage Home Water Filtration System, KDF Heavy Metal Filter, Includes Pressure Gauges, Easy Release, and 1 Inch Connections.

Short version: Great product, quick shipment, no more iron taste in my water. Buy it if you need it.Long and maybe painful version: Installed this while redoing a really messy well house at our retirement place. This summer we started to get rust stains and an iron taste. Did a test and found between 3 and 5 ppm iron. Installed this between the sediment filter and the softener. I did have to remove the filter bowl and reseat it, either they just hand tighten it or leave it loose for shipping. Snugging as delivered did not stop the leaking, removing and wiping the o ring and ring seating area made all water tight. Wish I'd know this before the system was pressurized and the filter was full of water :-) Once all installed, I flushed out the lines for a few minutes and took a shower. It seemed the iron level was less. After running all the faucets for a few minutes each and flushing all the toilets the iron taste was all but gone. Did a manual regen on the softener that night. The next morning we had nice clear water with no iron taste at all, and the water softener was back to working. I understand the iron causes problems for a softener. The filter arrived quickly and was well packed. I did reverse the mounting bracket and turn the pressure gauge in an additional half turn as I needed the inlet on the left. The installation instructions are fairly sparse. If you're fairly intelligent and have reasonable mechanical aptitude these things are simple to put in. If it took you three tries and two hours to put together an ikea book shelf you might need a plumber or to ask a handy friend to help. The input and output ports are one inch NPT, so you must have a large enough wrench for this size fitting. A 10 inch adjustable wrench won't open far enough. Just a fact about larger fittings, not anything related to this specific product. I'm happy, recommend this product. Be sure to have a sediment filter BEFORE this filter, no sense clogging up a $90 filter element with crud easily captured by a $5 filter element.

This filter was larger than I anticipated, but not unwieldy. At 160$, I thought it was vey reasonably priced. My water never tasted bad, so I saw little difference before and after. I purchased it to remove lead, I have yet to test the water, so I'm not sure what the reduction, if any was. I'll update the review once I get test results. Installation was easy, I appreciated the stainless steel bracket, but due to the size of the unit, it was a little "bouncy". I used all copper pipes so that stiffened out up some, but still added a block of wood between the unit and the wall down low to ensure it couldn't move. I would especially add extra support of using pex tubing. The literature says to replace the filter every 6 months, but I haven't been able to find where I can get replacement filters.

are 3 years old son test positive lead and it was in are water on the city side we tested are water and the lead was 100 and we put this on with a water softer and ran it for a day and then retest and know are lead is 0the only problem were had was with ship it comes with a gauge on top of it and it was broke i sent a email to them and they got back to me in less them 12 hours i send them 1 pic of the gauge and they send me a new 1 we put it on and started the system up and we love it

Purchased this filter to remove the large amounts of iron water in a home that we just purchased. When it arrived, it had shipped with only a carbon filter and not the heavy metal filter it was supposed to. Contacted the seller on amazon and they they send a filter next day air to our house. Great customer service! As for the quality and build, it was easy to install with 1 inch inlets and outlets. I used pex that made the job very simple and easy. So far it has been working well and no other issues. Great product!

I installed this unit approximately a month ago now and it seems to be working fine. It is relatively easy to install, however it would me nice if they included concrete anchors with it as well as the screws given. The pressure gauge on it is a nice feature to monitor filter pressure and filter life. Overall it is a good product.

It did help the smell and taste but wasn’t easy installing and killed our water pressure. I couldn’t shower without feeling like I still had soap on me and do dishes quickly

lo utilize para mejorar el agua de pozo que va a la casa y me ayudo bastante lo utilizo en conbinacion de otros filtros que tengo instalados como el de residuos y el de carbon. esto es en tampa florida.
