Thank you so much for explaining how PEX expands in a freeze! I did NOT know that!

Recently had a similar system installed at my grandparents house and I really liked the layout the installer used. Similar situation with the existing pipe in the corner. He mounted the filters on the run away from the existing pipe, then used the UV filter to rise the level and go back. This totally eliminated the need for any 90° in the system and made for a very compact installation. Two Ts to branch of and otherwise straight connections.

Excellent demonstration. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice. I would like to note that the specs call for a 1/8 to 1/4 gap between the ring and the fitting, so this could fail an inspection. Also, red PEX denotes hot water. Blue or white is best. PEX and filter should have been 1" if the rest of the pipe is that. Spin down filter is on backwards.

Suggestion on teflon tape. The teflon should be tightened on the thread as you unwind it from the tape housing.

How smart you are Robert!

Nice install. I'd number or label those filter housings. I'm an old DIY plumber whose had Reverse Osmosis Filter Systems for almost 40 years. If you asked me which filter goes where.... I might get it right. But mostly what I've done is just replace the one that's in each housing with the one like it. So if I got them out of order once.... it'll probably be that way until I go look it up on the internet. Might be out of order for years. I like that 'spin' filter, great concept.

Nice. good explaning there. thx

Great demonstration. Thanks

Awesome, very detailed

Good morning, a suggestion for the manufacturer is as follows, in the passage of the UV lamp the wiring runs along the water, it may be better because there is no good system in all filtration and the wiring following the internal flow, if the wiring is non-toxic disregard , an excellent development in filtration, Top.

Very nice professional review Is big blue the best system

I installed almost the same system but I added an electronic water descaler. It's kind of interesting how you decided that you have a better system for fastening the crimp rings than the engineers who designed Pex. They say you should use one ring only, and place it back about an eighth of an inch from the end of the tube. And you should crimp it once only. They even provide a handy go/no-go gauge with your crimper so you can make sure the rings are secure. Your way might be almost as good.

@Rick-the-Swift

Жыл бұрын

His way is better. Have you considered WHY Pex only says to use one ring and one crimp? I'll give you a minute to think about it. Because if they recommended two rings and two crimps, their product would be less marketable, and customers would be beaching and moaning about the extra time and expense. However professional plumbers who do enough of this kind of work often see those joints as the first point of failure. Having backup rings, and double checking your crimp only makes good sense.

@@Rick-the-Swift When products like this are designed (by real engineers with college degrees and everything) they designed it from the ground up for the best, most durable option . They don't care if it takes you slightly longer. It just needs to last longer. One ring leaves a cuff of PEX on the joint side that makes it harder to pull thru the ring. And since the inside of the rings are smooth while the barb is not, an extra ring gets you nothing. I've installed PEX for years, and it so much easier and faster that copper or galvanized pipe that no real plumber would gripe if he or she had to install five rings. Buy the rings in bags of 100. They cost almost nothing. If you're estimating a job there's really no point in adding the cost of the rings. Years later, nothing has moved with "only one" ring even with water pressure that is higher than it should be. It's also quicker to install than PVC or CPVC unless you go for the really expensive push fittings. It is interesting to see idiots try to outsmart the pros because they don't understand how the system works.

Nicely done. A couple of recommendations - (1) try to avoid the hard right angles in your pex fittings - these can cause significant pressure drops. Better to have long sweeps; (2) - try to stay all 1" until you get out of the filters - better for flow; (3) add some ball valves, boiler drains and pressure gauges to control and measure your water flow.

It's been shown in multiple tests that these filters remove sediment, tastes and odors, and minerals. The minerals removed do not soften water which is one of their big claims. The cost north of $1000 and you have a constant filter replacement built in for the life of the unit. A simple whole house two filter, sediment and taste and odor will do the same for about $150.

James, The little Silfos (Phosphate) pre-filter is supposed to tie up the minerals and thus in theory to soften the water. In fact it only adds the phosphate to bind up the minerals which stay in the water and "doesn't" soften the water. The Calcium and Magnesium bonding/binding with phosphate "may" be filtered out through the 3 stage filtration. However, I doubt it. It "may" just end up shortening the life of the filter cartridges due to early plugging. In which case the house owner "may" be replacing cartridges more often than expected.

Thank you, iSpring Water Systems LLC

@supertokinwhiteguy

6 жыл бұрын

Bruce McGee A pressure gauge is necessary for pump switch operation and setting. For filtration, the only time pressure gauges would be useful is during operation of the system to note the pressure drop across the filters. When you notice a significant operating pressure drop it’s a notification to change your filters. There will always be pressure drop across any water system from beginning to end, but it gets more significant as the flow is restricted.

Hi Vincent. Thanks for reaching out! Here are the answers to your questions. 1) The products in the video are whole house water systems. Although you can drink out of your faucet after this filtration, we recommend installing a reverse osmosis system (like this one: www.amazon.com/iSpring-RCC7AK-Capacity-Drinking-Remineralization/dp/B005LJ8EXU) for safer drinking water. 2) You can filter as much water as you want per day. However, the filters' lifespan is up to 100k gallons of water (depending on your water quality). That means the more water you filter per day, or the worse your water quality is, the more frequently you need to change your filters. 3) The filters should be stored indoors or under shelter to avoid direct sunlight and freezing temperatures.

If you are talking about our RO systems, the water goes through the 3 pre-filters and the RO membrane first, then fills up the tank. When you get water from the faucet, it goes from the tank through the post filter to the faucet.

How do I solve the immense pressure drop after the system? is there a booster pump i can install after the fact?

Hi dear customer! If water pressure drops immediately after installation of a WGB series system, please take into account that bathtubs, utility sinks, hose bibs, multi-headed showers, body sprayers, or anything that is considered high-flow should be avoided for the first 72 hours. Any high-flow situation within the first 72 hours may cause a temporary carbon blockage. -To clear the blockage, turn off any running water for at least 10 minutes and resume using water at low or normal flow rates. -Allow the water to run until the air and carbon has been purged. Water may be cloudy initially as the filters and the system clear of trapped air. New activated carbon filter cartridges may contain loose carbon and air bubbles after the installation/replacement. If this is not the case, please kindly contact us at support@123filter.com, at (678) 261-7611 M-F 8:30-5:30 EST, or at (470) 560-0012 M-F 8:30-5:30 EST (Messaging only) to properly guide you.

Can't you just use pvc elbows and plumbing adhesive with PEX?

I assume he did this with water flowing basically from right to left because both of his connections for the water supply/house were on the left side in that corner, but if I have my water supply on the left and I want the where it goes into the house on the right I can reverse which order I do this in? Spin down filter on the left followed by the large blue filters in the middle and then the UV filter on the right.

your filters r only good up to 60psi. I have a 60psi system.

So how do you know when it is time to change filters?

When your water pressure begins to fall off.

wouldn't it be better to put a pressure gages in the filter inlet and outlet side, so you can see the pressure drop through the filters. before it is a problem.

@@MNiceholeGood point. Some brands do have pressure gauges built into the manifold.

Where can I find all the material for a home filtration unit? Is all of it available on Amazon?

Can that UV filter be mounted horizontally? I want to install it in a crawl space that doesn't have a lot of vertical clearance
