Systems ROES-50 Essence Series Top Tier 5-Stage WQA Certified Ultra Safe Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Filter System with Extra High Capacity Pre-Filter Set Stage 1-3

I couldn’t be more pleased with the APEC ROES-50 Essence Series 5-Stage Reverse Osmosis System. From installation to performance, this system has exceeded my expectations. The water quality is outstanding—crystal clear, with no taste of chlorine or impurities. It’s reassuring to know that the water my family is drinking is ultra-pure and safe. The installation was straightforward, even for someone like me who isn’t particularly handy. The instructions were clear, and all the necessary parts were included. The pre-filter set (Stages 1-3) has excellent capacity and is very easy to replace when needed. I appreciate that APEC’s filters are WQA-certified, giving me peace of mind about the quality. One of the best things about this system is how much money it has saved us—we no longer need to buy bottled water, and the water tastes just as good, if not better! The tank fills quickly, and the system is quiet in operation. Overall, it’s a great investment, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality water filtration at home.

The set up was very simple because of detailed written instructions English instructions and diagrams. The system works very well and will highly recommend it.

I live in an area where the city water is questionable. It could very much be a placebo, but the water tastes good without any smell. No leakage yet.

Really good. This is my second one (new house). Install is straightforward, the instructions are clear and hoses are color coordinated. The only hard part would be drilling through your countertop, but I have always just used the pre-existing hole from those crappy old soap dispensers. You also have to drill a 1/4” hole in your drain pipe. Do NOT do this after the p-trap, it must be before. Installation took me maybe 2 hours, with a large portion of that just dedicated to testing for leaks along the way, and the awkward work space making simple tasks like tightening a nut more challenging. Really makes a big difference in the water quality. The water is perfect. The filter is not dead silent, but very quiet and nothing you would notice once the cabinet is closed. 100x quieter than your refrigerator. Pressure is decent as long as the tank has some water in it. Takes 2-3 hours to fill the tank, and a little over 5 minutes to drain it. I never have any problem running out of water with normal use. It’s pretty large so make sure you have space. The instructions do state that the tank can be placed sideways and that the filters themselves can be stood upright rather than mounted if desired. We figured we were spending $60/month on bottled water, so this pays for itself in three months, and saves a lot of unnecessary plastic waste from entering landfills and oceans. Note: do NOT touch the blue thing on the side of the tank. It looks like a disposable cap for shipping but it is actually a vital air valve.

We installed this system about a month ago. Instructions were clear, it was an easy project. Our TDS dropped from mid-400's in our tap water to about 40, easily 90%. I had noticed the reviews mentioning water leaks at connections, but I found them to be tight if put together right. Still, protection is always good, so I installed a very nice little automatic safety shut off valve by a company called Savant.

The system has been flawless, no leaks, no malfunctions and we are still on the original filter set. Latest tests on the water quality compared to our tap water are still showing around 95% reduction in TDS, total dissovled solids. One of the reasons for the installation in the beginning was the discovery of just what was in the TDS of municipal tap water. Your local water company will have that data, I found mine easily online... and found arsenic, lead and a host of unhealthy things were allowed up a limit. Our tap water runs 450-500 PPM. The RO cuts that to the 25-30 range, and we use it for anything that will wind up in our bodies; drinks, cooking and so on. It tastes better too. Overall it has been a very good choice and investment.
