Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I had a really old RO system that my parents bought long time ago. Every year, we pay a service guy to come a replace the filters for us and each time he charges around $60 to replace. If it requires a membrane replacement, he will charge us around $150! After 10+ year of usage, I figure it’s time to change to a new one. At first I was thinking about getting a newer unit from the same company but my friend told me that I should just maintain it myself so I don’t have to pay for the ridiculous service fee. This is when I heard about APEC Water. He said that their systems are very well built and also the filters that they use are the best in the industry. When the system arrived, my initial impression was wow! This thing is night and day compared to not just the old system that I have before, but the new system that the same company is trying to sell to me. The craftsmanship and quality of materials even down to the way it was packaged. The whole installation took me about a good 1 hour because I want to make sure I got everything installed correctly. The hardest part was probably the faucet installation, because I had to crawl underneath the sink cabinet and it is not fun for a 6’-1” guy. Other than that, the system installation itself was a breeze. I would say, as long as you follow the instructions on the manual, you shouldn’t have any issues on installing it. Overall, I would give it a 5 out of 10 in terms of difficulty and most of that 5 is coming from the faucet installation. Out of curiosity, I took my old system apart to see what filters they used, and surprise; they don’t even have a brand, not even on the membrane itself. Now I know where most of my money was going during its service. With this new system, I pay only $39 a year for top notch filters and it also come with a nice tester for me to monitor the quality of my water anytime!
