I spent numerous hours researching water filter systems. Went with pure effect due to the positive reviews. This filter system is all they said it was going to be. Install was very easy, and no I’m not a plumber. After installing I would run water off and on for a week to let the filters settle in. After doing this the water was tasteless. Water with no flavor or after taste. Water is really refreshing. Good clean water. Recommend this company to anybody looking to clean up their drinking water.
