Aquasana Under Sink Water Filter System - Claryum Direct Connect Under Counter Filtration - AQ-MF-1

Purchased due to PFAS readings from our municipal water supply. The certifications were important to me and I didn't trust filters that supposedly last years. 6 months seems right, and while it's a new household expense, it seems worth it after installation. The parts & instructions were well made & written. Based on another helpful review, I purchased 3 inexpensive extra parts that eliminated the white piece that connects directly to the water supply line since it seemed to improve durability and ensure good flow. I hope they might upgrade their parts package to do this for future customers. The filter is long, and the best way to install under my sink was horizontal, which made it harder to reach the furthest screws, but not impossible, and now replacement is that much easier. Upon first test, heard the water try and make its way through but there was almost no flow. Long story short, something made its way to the faucet head, which once I cleaned it out, the flow seemed almost (90% or more) like pre-install. (Sigh of relief). I also had to reseat the connectors to the filter head housing to ensure no leaking. I put a small container underneath just to be sure, but it's been dry since day one. Water tastes very good, and it feels good to have done the best we can to improve the quality / health of our drinking water. Update: wanted to say that the 7 months that it was left in, the water flowed well and tasted good consistently. When the flow started to get noticeably slower, I was surprised at how easy it was to just change out the filter with no leaks. I did my best to shake the retained water out before disposing since it was kind of heavy. Don't forget to let it run for ~15 minutes after installing.

Bought UK quick fit connectors as the provided are for USA tiny pipes. Push fit - paperwork says you need to cut perfectly square, so avoid if you don't think you will be able to. Lasts 6 months - shorter than others but filters more so we'll see. Water tastes good.

Verificare che gli attacchi siano compatibili, perché sui eri rubinetti non funzionavano gli attacchi ho dovuto comprare dei raccordi

I wanted to like this filter and had already mounted it when I discovered that the supplied dual-port adapter only fits 3/8-inch water lines. My sink has a 1/2-inch connection. That alone would not have caused this review—I was willing to purchase adapters and make it work safely. What changed my mind was Aquasana’s support. I spoke with three employees, and none could identify the required fittings, recommend a safe solution or direct me to a compatible company part. I was simply told they could not help. I cannot evaluate the filtration because I returned it before running water through it. I am reviewing the misleading installation experience, limited compatibility and support behind the product. For pressurized plumbing that requires proprietary replacement cartridges every six months, competent long-term support matters. I chose not to reward this experience with recurring purchases.

I had some issues with leaking at the adapter. Aquasana sent another adapter with instructions to use Teflon tape. Worked perfectly! I'm very happy with the filters performance and quality.
