Express Water 3-Stage Whole House Water Filter System, Reduces Heavy Metals, Scale, Chloramine, Chlorine, PFAs, Lead & Arsenic, Free-standing Stainless Steel Frame & 3 Pressure Gauges

Bought this for my home to deal with questionable city water. Sometimes it tastes weird/like chlorine and will leave our bathtub, sinks and toilets a wreck. Not to mention the horrible calcium build-up in the lines needed dealt with. After spending roughly $50 in parts (PVC), I set to work. The installation only took maybe two hours while taking my time. I also needed to reverse the flow of the filters, which the instructions to do so are provided. I've got to say, after everything was said and done, I was impressed with the immediate difference in the taste of my water. I had some of the "old stuff" just in case I needed it, and compared to drinking the water after the filtration system, the old stuff smelled and tasted like I was drinking water straight from a pool. After the filtration system? It actually tastes like nice refreshing water. Not only this, but I swear my skin feels better after showering to boot. The only hiccup I experienced was that one of the gauges wasn't working initially, but after a suggestion from customer support I found out it was 1 turn too tight. All gauges work correctly once I loosened it a full turn. While it may be too early to give it an honest, long-term review, I'm impressed with it so far. If you're looking to improve your water quality, you can't go wrong with this system.

We have well water that smells horrible. I have struggled for the past few years with the smell and it was also very embarrassing when people would visit and make comments on what smelled so bad. I would even gag when brushing my teeth. We have also spent so much money on gallons and bottles of water. We have a water softener but it didn’t make a difference with the hard water. Within minutes of this being installed we had absolutely no smell and could drink the water from the tap. I actually enjoy taking a shower now also. The plumber we had install it said it could take a week before we noticed a difference but I could tell instantly. I wish we purchased this two years ago when we built our house. If you are unsure if this is a quality system, let me tell you it absolutely is. It is worth every single penny and I we will also save so much money on not having to buy bottles and gallons of water. It also filters out the iron so our toilets don’t have stains. Seriously buy this. You will not regret it.

The Express Water Filtration System is a substantial, well made, and hopefully an efficient filtration system. It was installed three days ago, so I’ll know more as time goes on. I had a plumber install it, (Copper pipe) but it looked fairly straight forward. I’ve seen DIY people on YouTube install with PVC which should work fine. My reason for purchasing this filtration unit was to remove mainly Chlorine from my newly repiped house. Chlorine can affect the interior of copper pipes, so I’m told. I called the Express Company with a few questions and found them to be friendly and extremely helpful. Be aware the filters (3) last from 6 mo - 1 yr and can be purchased through Amazon. The 3 filters cost over $100 together, so fingers crossed, I’ll only have to replace them yearly. The unit has 3 pressure gauges so you can monitor how each filter is doing and replace them accordingly. The gauges were my main reason for choosing Express over the competition. I rarely drink tap water, so I can’t help you there, but I’m hoping the spots on glasses coming out of the dishwasher diminish and overall scale becomes less of an issue, not to mention algae, heavy metals, sediment, and several unwanted chemicals. I may offer an evaluation update after living with this system for a month or two.

We moved from city water to a rural water district in Oklahoma. We were told to not expect great water from the rural water district so we bought the “Ultimate” model of this well rated filter. I was surprised at the size of this! Second picture has a size 11 shoe for reference. I can’t speak to the install as I had the plumber overcharge me for installing it. But I can say that our water is better now than it was in the city. It tastes better and is soft with no issues. I love that it has gauges to tell you the water pressure so you can see if it falls with a used filter. I also love that the last filter housing is clear so you can see its cleanliness. I also love that I can change the filters when needed myself. We have three refrigerators that each take a filter that cost $50, but I think with this thing, I can forgo the fridge filters all together and just replace these when needed! So really the cost of the replacement filters at $189 for the set, might just save me money. With the fridge wanting a new filter every 6 months (Wife Enforced), that would be $300 a year and I believe this will last a year. It says it is good for 100,000 gallons which is about a year of use. And now even my toilet water is filtered…. If you need that.
