Hi,

thinking of ordering the complete set with faucet. How do you find it so far?
Is the water flow ok, faucet durable?

Thanks.

As a minimum, you'll need 2 basic filters.

1. Sediment filter - filters sand, dirt, particles that pass through water system, protects more expensive filter down the line.
2. Carbon filter - filters chlorine, bad taste

Then the filters need to change regularly.
When to change depends on the volume passing through.
Typically, 6 months -2 years (if water is very clean)

Don't skip the sediment filter, it's the first line of protection. I made this mistake.

True. You also don't want fluoride in the water.
And though Alkali water is good, drinking it while eating isn't so good because it neutralize your stomach acids.
Not so simple to just buy the undersink filter.

for those who use Brita, where do you buy the cartridges? I see some that say the filter last for a month then another seller say 2 months, which is genuine?

Faucet quite durable i am more worried my sink is the one not durable.

Also asked ur installer to lock-tite the handle of the faucet, the one u use to turn on the water.

Water pressure depend on the HDB or condo water pressure but because the smaller piping, it is definitely stronger than my default hdb flow.

In fact now i wash plate i prefer to use the filter water faucet.

Did you get a plumber to set up or easy to DIY? How long can the filter last? Need to change any membrane? Thanks.

u know algae & bacteria can start growing in your filter? when as you said, the water clogged or even the anti-bacterial layer is worn off.

one of the reason filter need to change is to remove the dirt and algae build up, unless the filter is washable & re-useable.

bro Amalamia is abit wrong to say what he says

basically Ruhens every 1.5 years need change filter, when they come to your house to change, they will charge $50+ servicing fee in which they will clean your system, ALL of it.

 

[~WindzStriker~]

Ruhens actually supply the filters to Hydroflux, and then Hydroflux rebrand it and resell.

so the choice is obvious

Jestac come to fix it up foc when my house being renovated.

Diy i presume is easy as need drill at sink & mount with 2 screw the tube filter.

I usually annually changed, 2nd time change i got go cut open the tube to see the filter quality, was surprised that it is relatively quite clean, i reckon 1.5yrs also no issue.

Recommended replacement is 6 months or 5000L of water flow iirc.

Thats what I am intending to do a second kitchen faucet, so the filter tubes can be mounted below the sink.

Re

Safe To Drink From the Tap Due to sound watershed management, effective water treatment processes and continued investments in R&D, Singaporeans have been enjoying good quality water for the last five decades. Singapore’s tap water is well within the World Health Organisation drinking water guidelines, and is suitable for drinking without any further filtration. - See more at: http://www.pub.gov.sg/water/Pages/default.aspx#sthash.d9BHzkjK.dpuf

Can these prevent you from drinking corpse water from the water tank on top of the HDB block?
