This filter has dramatically changed the taste of our water from day 1. We have a private well which is untreated ground water. We run our water through a large and small particle sediment filter at the source/pump room. We also have the UV sanitizer after the main in the house. Previously we only had an additional small particle sediment filter in the home and we had problems with bad smelling ice from the in door ice maker of our fridge. The water also had a mild bitterness to the taste, it was tested and came back free of contaminants, but the taste was still there. We replaced our sediment filter with this Crystal Quest 7 stage whole house filter, and what an AMAZING distance. The ice cubes are crystal clear and free of any foul smell and taste, and the water from the tap has never been better! The filter system did not affect our water pressure, which was our only concern as it has a lower flow rate than many others out there, but again there is no change in our pressure, so we could not be happier with this purchase.

We had a company come to our home and test our water, and try to sell us a 6 thousand dollar water filtration system. Upon doing some research, I decided that this one was worth a shot. From the first day we saw a HUGE difference! You can feel the difference on your hands, in the shower. My dishes and stainless steel sink have way less water spots than before, and the water from the tap tastes great. I highly recommend this system, excellent for such a low price! Also I called crystal quest, and the customer service was very helpful, and they even called back when they said they would!!

It installed fairly easy. I set it up so the outside water spicket isnt fed filtered water. But beyond that I change the filters twice a year. Its amazing how clean my water is. No smell or taste of chlorine. The filters seem to be filtering out all sorts of other stuff as they are quite dirty looking when I change them.
