This is an addendum to the review I left earlier. It illustrates the various TDS readings of unfiltered versus filtered water.
I purchased the 7-stage 100gpd RO system about a month ago. I installed it myself which took me about 3-4 hours as I'm very meticulous and SLOW...I had a few minor leaks which I was able to fix promptly with no need to call NU AQUA's customer support.
From the time immediately after I completed the start-up process the system has functioned perfectly. My wife and I are thrilled with the quality of the water - and even more so after reading an article online about the poor quality of bottled water in America.
We've gotten TDS readings as low as 13ppm whereas our city tap water was in the 180ppm TDS range. Our ice cubes are much more crystal clear and we're no longer buying name brand bottled water as they tested at 150ppm TDS. Test your unfiltered tap water, filtered tap water, refrigerator water AND bottled water you've purchased - you'll be blown away at how much better the RO filtered water is.
I'd been debating installing an RO system for years and wish I'd have done it sooner. My experience with NU AQUA has been excellent. I highly recommend you consider one of their systems. For us, the 7-stage 100GPD system is more than we'll need, but the taste and clarity of the water is exceptional....it has improved the taste of coffee and tea as well.
We've stopped buying all bottled water in plastic containers and are using refillable thermos and metal bottles. I'm sure the filters for the RO system are less costly than we've been spending buying bottled water over and over..... and it's much better tasting and healthier for you.
Excellent
Ordering was quick and simple. Delivery showed up within a few day.
Love it, just started using after almost a month from date of purchase.. only wish for water reservoir have more capacity, but its okay, it fits the description as countertop ro water system...
Great water filter system!
Excellent RO under the counter system and superb service.
My wife and I recently purchased this counter top RO filter and have loved it. We both work in the coffee industry, and having a good source for RO water at home has made our home coffee very good (although we do add some minerals for optimization). The added hot water is a great feature too. I wouldn’t use it for brewing, but it’s great for heating up equipment and pre-soaking filters etc.
Bought this las year when I remodeled kitchen. Works well. Water tastes great. I added the mineral filter to give the water a better taste and make sure we get minerals.
Customer service is always responsive and they make it easy to place orders. We have been pleased so far with both the shower filter and tankless RO.
Very happy to have purchased this Alkaline RO water system for my home. Not to difficult to install and it works nicely
This is great bc and I’m looking forward to install this system next week!
Easy on easy off. Water i can feel comfortable drinking. Good job NU Aqua!
I had a problem with the water supply valve. Since it was plastic and my plumbing is metal it was easy to cross thread the connection. When I called for a replacement part the customer service rep not only took my request, but they then investigated to see when I purchased the system and indicated that it was still under warranty so the part would be free. What made this great story even better is that the replacement part was metal and not plastic. Clearly they are looking at their products and improving them all the time.
Watch installation video a head of time. It was very helpful knowing ahead of time what to expect. Installation took me a few hours but I had no surprises.
I was purchasing 2 cases of 6 gallon spring waters every two weeks. It was becoming a hassle and expensive. I researched the best reverse osmosis filters and came across the Nu Aqua countertop system and so far, so good. I’m also happy that the filters only need to be changed between 9 months and 24 months (depending on the quality of already treated water from your city, etc.). It was a great investment!
I had a system in my home when I lived in Florida. I received so much compliments when I had guess over. I don't have the space in New York so I opt for the countertop dispenser. I love the water because nu aqua give me the alkaline that I need for my health and it beats buying 10 cases of alkaline water and lugging it from the store into the house. It was costly and heavy to carry. I know in the long run it'll be financially beneficial to just replace the filters as opposed to purchasing the cases of water. Thank you nu aqua. I am aware I would have to replace the filter less than every 3 months because I drink a average of 170 oz of water a day. All in all, the water is delicious without adding any flavor to it.
Fantastic water. Very noticeable difference.
The system provide no just clean water, it taste really good!
We recently purchased the 7 stage system and are very happy with it. We had a few items we needed to work out with customer service and they were great to work with. Many thanks to Jen for all her help!
Our system came without an O-ring on the UV light housing. I contacted the company through chat in the middle of the night. It was an actual person! We completed the interaction through email because I needed to send a picture to them. They immediately knew what I needed and proceeded to ship the missing part at no charge. Awesome.
