Know before you buy
This system uses a multi-stage process to eliminate up to 99% of total dissolved solids, including heavy metals like lead and arsenic, fluoride, bacteria, viruses, chlorine, and common contaminants that affect taste and odor.
The system includes a calcite neutralizer stage that adds high-purity calcium carbonate to the water. This process increases the water's alkalinity and adds essential minerals, resulting in a smoother, more balanced taste compared to standard reverse osmosis water.
The system is designed for DIY installation and includes all necessary components, such as the lead-free designer faucet. While it is straightforward for those comfortable with basic household tools, you should ensure you have adequate space under your sink for the 17.5-inch tall unit.
The unit stands 17.5 inches tall and weighs 25 pounds. You will need enough clearance to accommodate the filter housing and the storage tank, so it is best to measure your cabinet space before purchasing.
The system comes with a dedicated lead-free designer faucet specifically for the filtered water. It is a standalone fixture, so you will need to drill a hole in your countertop or sink if you do not have an existing opening for a secondary faucet.
Filter replacement frequency depends on your local water quality and daily usage. Generally, the pre-filters are replaced every 6 to 12 months, while the RO membrane and the alkaline mineral filter have a longer lifespan, typically lasting 2 to 3 years.
