This water filter system was simple to install and it works perfectly. The water quality is much better than what we get from our fridge or sinks. One of the best things we bought for our new home.

Great Reverse Osmosis System
This system was very easy to install and is the best value I have found compared to other brands out there. I can definitely taste the difference immediately.

Easy install
Replaced an existing unit, couldn't have been easier. Water tastes great, although I haven't tested it yet.

Bought and installed it myself
I haven't checked the purity level of the filtered water yet, but I can definitely feel the difference in taste and hardness. The installation was easy, I have an existing setup. It made my job easy.
This simple setup made think, why I didn't do it earlier itself.

Easy to install and works great!
I have installed similar systems, but this is the easiest and best documented I've come across. It took me about 90 minutes to install. The water tastes great! So the APEC system does everything promised.

Good water filter system
I got that filter system a month ago. Installation was pretty easy, manual was very simple and informative (even for the foreigner) and it took me about two hours to set it up in a tight spot and connected to refrigerator to get clear ice for my whiskey ;) . The water tasted so clean and odorless.

Very good water filter system
It was very easy to install the filter once you read the instructions carefully.
When we had the first glass of filtered water to drink..we were just wow! What a difference.
The water tasted so clean and odorless. But I had some water strip tests lying around so I also measured the hardness of filtered water to compare with non-filtered water. The results were self explaining. It removed most of the particles from the water as per the test. I would definitely recommend this product.

Best buy ever
I followed the menu and the YouTube video, the installation is smooth. It works well and not leaking at all.
The PPM is 120 before, now it is only 6. And the taste is better too.

Greaet Tasting Water
This was a much better deal than the filters in stock at Home Depot. Well worth the wait for a few days, with free delivery anyway.

product review
I replaced an existing Reverse Osmosis water systemn with the APEC ROES-50. Everything I needed was in the box and the manual was very simple and informative, it was not that hard to replace the old system. With the great price of the unit and complete replacemnt filter easly available and all the tools to replace them included, I would highly recommed the APEC line of Reverse Osmosis system to my family and friends. As the attached pictures will show. the cvompact design of the unit allows more storage space under the sink.

5 stage RO drinkling water filter system
This 5 stage RO drinking water filter system came in pore-assembled almost 50%. The rest is to be installed by User/Homeowner connecting tubing from the system to dispenser, drain and its filters. Manual came with photos and installation is quite simple and easy. I am pleased with the system overall.

Great product!!
The installation is pretty straight forward, with all the tubing and connection parts supplied. However, if you need to connect the system to your fridge for making ice or dispensing water, you need to get additional tubing and fittings from hardware store or online. Also, I didn’t have the hole at the corner of my stainless steel sink, so I got a ½” titanium drill bit to drill a hole for the water faucet. Other than that, all parts are supplied and the installation instruction is pretty clear.
The system seems very solid built and no leaking whatsoever at connections. By the way, every connection, as far as tubing, is quick connect, which makes the installation much easier and leak free. However, you might want to use rubber washer when connecting the adapter to the water supply shut-off valve to make sure it’s 100% leak free. Maybe it’s not required if you know what you’re doing, but for me it seemed the Teflon tape itself didn’t seal 100%.
I used to drink from the fridge water dispenser with only a single filter, and the APEC filter system definitely improves the taste to the water compared to before. I would say the taste is about the same if not better than the bottled water from Costco. The system eliminates the need to purchase packs and packs of bottled water and the hassle of bringing the empty bottles in for recycling. What an improvement! The chrome water faucet also looks fantastic (pardon the dirty sink)!

Top 5 best purchase of my life!
This is such a great addition to the kitchen. Not only does it provide excellent tasting water at your sink (which tastes better than bottled water), but if you buy the ice maker line as well your ice can taste just as good. Also, the ice freezes perfectly clear! This just highlights this filter system's ability to remove all contaminates and produce crystal clear, clean water.

I purchased the Apec Water Reverse Osmosis System from Home Depot after it was recommended to me by a friend. I was amazed at how easily it was to install. I really enjoy the taste and quality of the drinking water as well as the cost savings that I am getting from not having to buy and store bottled water.

Works well, add a permeate pump to save water!
Got this after my old RO system died, so the install was pretty smooth as I already had many of the pieces in place.
Works really well, the TDS dropped from 10 to about 2 after a month of use.
It does produce a lot of waste water, so I would suggest getting a permeate pump to reduce this, i.e. Aquatec erp-500, and installing it AFTER the auto shutoff valve. I got mine from Infinite Water in Saskatchewan and Kalen was very helpful in explaining what to do.
If you don't have room under your sink and don't want to drill holes on the RO mounting bracket, you can mount the pump on a small piece of wood and use hose clamps to clamp it to the in line filter.

Easy install. Water has a great taste.
The installation guide is awesome. I loved the graphical print out showing all the connections, it makes the installation process so much easier. We are enjoying this filter a lot, the flavor of the water is significantly better than the one we used to get from the fridge.
