AQUA CREST INL 5 Years Inline Water Filter for Ice Maker and Refrigerator

I keep 2 five gallon jugs of water in my truck with a water pump hooked up to them. After a few weeks the water started tasting bad. Got this filter and ran it inline with the pump. Easy install, doesn’t take up much room, and a fair price. The first few ounces that pumped out was charcoal grey but cleared up quickly and it hasn’t happened again. Water taste so much better now, it didn’t slow the flow any, and there are no visible leaks. I’d recommend.

Was delivered next day with no problems. Value excellent 5 year filter!! We have water testing kit & this passed with flying colors. No leaking issues at all & easy to install. Connected to a icemaker inside freezer & water pressue great, icemaker running well. Will definitely repurchase again in 5 years!

I added this as an extra filtration to my fridge's internal filter and the result is a noticeably cleaner tasting ice and water from dispenser. Install was also a breeze. I have a counter depth style fridge so installing it on top was my best option using the hardware that came with the filter. Not sure about the 5 year replacement interval claim though. My household uses an average of 6-8 gals of water from the fridge dispenser daily. I guess we'll find out... however, the cost is worthwhile just for the water quality improvement alone

We started using this filter 8 months ago. My backstory is similar to most everyone else’s: got tired of buying the overpriced proprietary filters for the fridge, so I sought out an inline filter as the solution. I had bought Aquacrest filters in the past for a Pur pitcher and was very satisfied with the quality (both taste and longevity), so I figured I’d give the brand a try for a fridge filter. Install was very straightforward. If you’re even remotely handy around the house, this will be no problem. We don’t live somewhere where we have to worry about contaminates or particularly hard water…this is purely for taste. That said, don’t overlook the fact that like most simple inline filters (and UNlike pitcher filters), it’s not going to reduce TDS, at least not enough to matter. Pre-install, my cheap little TDS meter read 190 and after install and bleeding out the first five gallons of water, it was around 180. That said, the taste of our water noticeably improved. I wouldn’t say it was bottled-water-quality, but it was better than straight from the tap. My biggest qualm is simply the life of the filter. “Five years/5,000 gallons” is an insane claim. We’re eight months in and I’d say it’s pretty much done. I can’t tell a difference between tap water and the fridge water running through this filter at this point. We’re a normal-sized household and definitely not using anywhere close to 20 gallons per day from the water/ice dispenser (20 gallons per day for eight months is roughly 5k gallons.) If I WAY over-estimate, then let’s say we pull 5 gallons per day on average, just to use an easy number. Then this filter should have lasted us almost three years, not eight months… Anyway, the bright side is that even if it needs replacing every 6 months, that’s the same frequency as the proprietary filters and it’s 1/3 the cost, so still a win. Would I recommend it? I think so, but I’m going to try a different brand next time to see how it compares.

Our city has chlorine problems, but in chlorine in our city water now tastes nasty but a friend of mine wanted me to order one to try it, and he hooked it up and water tastes. Excellent not only clean the water from any other impurities that definitely got rid of the chlorine taste. I can’t wait to get mine hooked up now. Excellent product for the money.

Easy to install, came with all of the needed attachments, works great, only have an ice maker in my fridge and wanted better tasting ice. Hopefully it really lasts 5 years.

Easy instructions. I I was able to do it , you can too. Easy to install. I watched a YouTube video and set out to do it and was finished in about 10 minutes. Most of the time pulling and pushing the refrigerator. I recommend it highly so you don’t have to be held hostage paying for OEM filters. Just make sure you also install the water filter bypass for your refrigerator.

Better taste difference with first batch of ice cubes

I had a much shorter lifespan filter in line between my city water supply and my fridge ice maker. I put this in to replace that as this should last quite a bit longer. It was easy to install with what I already had in place and the hardware that came with this filter. I have stainless steel braided lines going to the fridge and the shut-off valve to the water supply in my basement so the fittings that came with it, that push into this filter and have the 3/8" threaded connectors I was able to screw the braided lines directly onto. Had no leaks first try! Been using it for a couple months now with no issues, iced tastes good with no chlorine or fluoride taste or smell. Excellent upgrade!

es un producto confiable

Installed on my fridge. Flow rate is great. Provides good tasting water. Hopefully it lasts 5 years as promised.

No he tenido oportunidad de instalarlo, porque el anterior aún no se vence, por lo tanto no tengo mas que reseñar. Solo que llegó a tiempo.
