Cheap and best water filter for dubai water purification. I got it fixed by a plumber

Using this as an inline water filter for my plumbed in coffee maker to maintain NSF and warranty requirements. This version (of 4 types), allows for up to 3000 gallons and meets NSF requirements as per the warranty.

UPDATE Sep 2019: It's been more than a year using the SAME CARTRIDGE. Our water processing plant is currently having issues with the quality of water and its coming out of the pipes very dirty. Using just the BASIC cartridge, the water comes out crystal clear, drinkable. This baby is amazing. Still no leaks whatsoever. Buying another replacement cartridge now just in case. Oh, the nut that tightens the unit to the sink broke because its plastic. Just buy a steel nut and problem solved. Should cost you like 3 dollars. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ORIGINAL REVIEW: After reading the reviews on this, I was skeptical. Some people said that the filter was not of enough quality or that it would not filter the necessary impurities. I considered that we live in a metropolitan area where the city water is just about decent. So we went with the basic filter option. Also, a reverse osmosis system is very expensive and wastes a ton of water (about 3 gallons of waste per 1 gallon of drinkable water). I have to say the results are amazing, even with the Basic filter: - No solids or visible impurities in the water. This means no "floaties" or "flakes" which is the way people refer to the calcium, manganese or magnesium precipitates that can be seen in cold or room-temp water. Although these precipitates are harmless (they in fact occur naturally in other foods we eat), they taste funky and look rather discouraging to drink. This filter took out all of that. - The taste of the water is great. Even at room-temp, the water is easy to drink and delicious. - the water pressure is quite nice with the basic filter. (see pictures) As for the installation, just follow the instructions and a few Pro-tips: PRO TIP: The mark included in the white silicone tube is 5/8 inch long. When you cut the tube to your liking, go ahead and mark the other side so you'll have no trouble fitting it to the right depth. PRO TIP: If you need to drill the extra hole in your sink. It will require the 9/16 bit. I tried the 5/8 hole as mentioned in the instruction, but the white tube does not fit. Use these to drill the hole: - TEMO M35 cobalt 9 size double flute step drill 3/8" shank 1/4" to 3/4" - CRC 03400 16oz Truetap Cutting Fluid Heavy Duty - Starrett 117C Center Punch With Round Shank, 4" Length, 1/8" Tapered Point Diameter You can check out my reviews on these 3 tools as well, for more details on how to use each for this application. PRO TIP: DO USE plumber's tape (the white one) on all male fittings. This will ensure no leakage. PRO TIP: when i first turned on the water, nothing came out. This was because the filter needed to click TWICE when tightening it in. Just make sure its nice and tight. Installation observations: - No leaks whatsoever were observed. A few people have complained about leaks, for us, this was not the case. We did use plumber's tape. - The process was very straightforward. Took us more time to clear out the area under the sink, than it took to install. - We left the filter loose (did not mount with screws) to be able to take it out and replace it easier.

I can't comment on installation as I had a plumber come drill a hole in my countertop (Quartz) and use all his fittings/pipings to save me the headache. He did recommend changing a few of the OEM parts as he's seen people have issues with them before. Pros: - The water is noticeably free of odor, taste, and particulates. - This filter can also be routed to a future hot water tap. (Plumber installed all required tubes and fittings for a marginal price). - Seems better than the Pur filter and Brita filters we had previously used and much cheaper since the filters last almost a year. - Very good value system, one of the best investments in a kitchen. Also frees up a lot of room in the fridge (No Brita Filter). - Uses almost no space under the counter. - Filter is easily changed, twist on and off. Cons: - The provided faucet is okay, it looks pretty modern and sleek and the nozzle rotates freely - but feels kind of cheap. I would recommend replacing this in the future. (Note that the faucet sold separately is over $30, so I thought of it as a freebie). - The handle on the faucet is oddly shaped and hard to operate one handed with wet hands (not very ergonomic).

This replaced a Britta filter pitcher. The install took 20 minutes and was exactly as the instructions said. Easy, and Quick. The water tastes great and the sink faucet is a real convenience. We are currently using the middle of the road filter as this is a step up for us from a Britta pitcher filter, but the same housing will accept the Premium / Advanced filter cartridge. FYI I had to order a different faucet as the chrome finish one that was supplied did not match our oil rubbed bronze kitchen faucet. Still worth the money and time to install.

This is the fourth time I've bought this filter for different taps in different houses. I love it. It's a relatively easy set up and the ez filter works better than a Brita and so much cheaper and more convenient in the long run. No need to get frustrated when someone doesn't remember to refill a pitcher. If you live in Canada the included connector for the water line likely won't work. Save frustration and order the correct connector at the same time. Search Amazon for B07JVM7WLS - for us with the 3/8 braided lines it worked - this one is a 3/8 x 3/8 x 1/4 connector. This was $20. I wish I could put one in at my work as well! Highly recommend!
