Albeit we have had to replace a base we would not want to be without it as their are far too many chemicals and impurities in our water system and it safe to drink. We had an in-line reverse osmosis system previously but it was slow and waisted an enormous amount of water. The AquaTru is fast and efficient.
I'm having trouble with leakage from the clean water spout onto the counter! We have had our unit for a few years, and it drips down the front of the machine all the time now. Do you have replacement rubber fittings, and is it difficult to get them out? Or is it something different?
If you are looking at the spicket side of the unit, the left side plunger/gasket in the tap water tank will remain open when removed from the unit. After cleaning per instructions it will stay sealed for a couple days but then will start leaking when replenishing with new tap water.
This is great for one person. A second person using from the Aqua Tru adds a lot to the labor of refilling. Taking up counter space in a galley kitchen also was not too bad until a second person is needing the same work space. The warning lights about replacement have never been apparent to me. I have to use the calendar and may be late in changing now that two are using it.
I didn’t realize how bad my water was. I was using one of those pictures and tested it against my normal tapwater and it was exactly the same. My total Dissolved solids (TDS)rating went from 340 to 10 using the Aquatru!
