relatively easy to install. took less than an hour (i handle small home plumbing jobs myself). haven't had any leaking issues. the flow of water is a little slow, so get the max flow if you're impatient or fill a lot of pots.
I honestly just don’t like the remineralizing feature. It tastes terrible to me and it’s clogging up my ice machine. The water from a regular filet tastes better to me. If there was a way to skip the remineralizing step I’d be a happy customer, but as of now I think this was a waste of money for me. It’s not like there aren’t added minerals in all our food.
Pros: No odor
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

At our previous home we had the Rhino 1000 and loved it! We decided to go with just an under sink system this time due to the design of our new home’s water system and we have really enjoyed it. It is nice to know we are removing all of the junk in our drinking water that is either intentionally or unintentionally being added that is harmful. I regret getting the bronze spout, it is really brassy, but we replaced it with a higher quality aftermarket one.
Pros: No odor, Clean taste, Long lasting filter, Good Water Flow, Durable, Easy to install
Installed this for my fiance who is paculair about her water. For the average person, water taste fine, but in comparison to high PH Essentia water, does not meet the standard.
Pros: Good Water Flow, Nice faucet
Cons: Difficult to install
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Our filters feature NSF Certified Claryum® filtration technology independently tested and proven to reduce over 97% of chlorine and chloramines. Aquasana’s Claryum® Selective filtration effectively reduces acidic compounds while preserving healthy minerals that naturally increase pH and alkalinity of water. Aquasana filters also reduce heavy metals like lead and mercury, cysts like giardia and cryptosporidium, organic chemicals like herbicides, pesticides, and VOCs, and some remove pharmaceuticals from your water. Filtered water is treated water that is then run through a filter. In our case, a special carbon filter is used to reduce the chlorine and other containments to make it safe and healthy to drink. If you have any questions, please feel free to call us at 866-662-6885 option 1.
