Customer Reviews for Replacement Filter Cartridges for Aquasana AQ-5200 2-Stage 500-gal. Under Sink Water Filtration System - White/Red/Yellow

While we love the filter we are having to replace the cartridges much more often than 6 months - about 3-4 months. However, we do use a lot of water in our household. The delivery time for replacement filters is running about 14-17 days. So plan ahead.
Pros: Easy to clean, No odor, Clean taste, Good Water Flow
Cons: Filters need replacing too often
I would recommend this to a friend!

While the appliance itself was installed by a plumber, I was able to change the filters myself. It took a few contortions to get under the sink, and initially the replacements leaked, but I finally got them in. Two things bother me: if the alarm sounds and you have to turn it off, you must remember HOW to do it. I managed to pull the entire appliance off the wall in the process. Also, you must run water through the filters before drinking, and I find I have to let it run for at least 20 minutes before the water tastes good. Seems like a lot of wasted water (unless you let it run into a bucket and take it outside to water your plants!)
Pros: No odor, Clean taste, Good Water Flow, Nice faucet

I have been using Aquasana under counter and shower filters for years. First, I never get the smell or taste of chlorine from my water. Secondly, I researched the reviews of filtration systems and Aquasana scored very highly.
I do recommend Aquasana to my friends, particularly to those using Brita, which I consider useless.
Pros: Easy to clean, No odor, Clean taste
Cons: Difficult to install

The filter works fine and water tastes fine too.
One problem was the first filter change. The unit was put together at the factory, as the filters were originally installed prior to installation of this filter unit. The "O" rings for the filter housing were damaged upon opening the unit to install new filters the o rings were not usuable again. They were crushed and pinched out of place. I am surprised that it did not leak during the original filters use. Had to replace the o rings to be able to reinstall the new filters without leaks.

I live at Lake Tahoe and we have the best tasting water in the country, but EPA still requires that chlorine be added. I have been using my Aquasana water filter to remove the chemicals for over 20 years and it is fantastic. It just makes my water better to know I am filtering out the additives. My favorite drink is plain water - cold or hot. Thank you Aquasana!
Pros: No odor, Clean taste, Long lasting filter, Easy to install

The replacement filters seem to act just like the original ones. I like it that you include a battery with the filter cartridges so we don't have to hunt for one in the hardware store.
Pros: Good Water Flow, Easy to install
Cons: Filters need replacing too often

After a competitors’ undersink water filter exploded under the sink after initial installation ( because the company failed to mention in its procedure manual to first open up the outlet valves before opening the inlet valves to allow air to escape as water pours into the filters) I switched to Aquasana. Since that time 15 years ago I have used Aquasana exclusively for all my drinking and cooking needs for my family. Each time after about 6 months, I am amazed that the old first filter is always gray colored from the impurities removed, and the second step filter is gray as well. Both filters when new are always bright white. Water tastes great and I am very happy these filters are doing a great job protecting my family and guests.
Pros: No odor, Clean taste, Long lasting filter, Good Water Flow, Durable, Easy to install
