Do you have an under sink water filter?
Culligan US-600A Under Sink Drinking Water Filter

I want to purchase an under sink filter that has the best tasting water. Please comment on under sink water filters you have tried. Again, my goal is the best tasting water possible. That is more important than cost although I'm not sure that the most expensive models give the best taste.


I had an under sink filter but it was a pain to change the filter, nor was the water that good. I now have a Brita, on faucet, filter... it installs easily, easy to change and the water tastes fine. I imagine some under sink filters work better though.

Can you remove and reinsert the tubing that connects an under sink water filter to the sink top spout?
IMG_7573

I have a Whirlpool under the sink water filter system. The spout on top of the sink has become loose, but to tighten the wing nuts holding it on, I need to remove the tube coming from the filter. Can I remove the tube and reinsert it without losing the seal?

It connects by pushing the tube in and it automatically locks in place.


The Whirlpool washer coupler takes the place of the belt that is used on the older style washers. If your washer does not agitate or spin, there is a good chance the coupler is broke. The best way to change the coupler is to remove the cabinet. This is easier then it sounds. The first thing you need to do (after disconnecting the power) is to loosen the control panel, in my opinion visit the website it will help because in this website I search the industrial water treatment plants so if you were interested visit the website which is given below.

Anybody got an under sink water filter?

I'm thinking of investing in an under sink water filter that you need a plumber to fit, one that removes nitrates etc. I've read that they make the water softer too. Has anybody got any recommendations. I think you have to replace it every 12 months and you get a partial refund. Any advice appreciated!


We have a Springflow system on our kitchen sink.

It's a special tap (the hot works as usual, but the cold turns both ways - forward for normal water and backwards for filtered water), plus the filter unit that sits under the sink. With ours, the filter is replaced every six months, at a cost of £22.

The water definitely tastes better and it is softer (we live in a hard water area). I'd definitely recommend it.

My under-sink water filter stopped working when I replaced the filters. Why?

I have a GE Smartwater under-sink filter that's about two years old. The last time I replaced the filter cartridges, the flow of water was reduced to a trickle. Thinking the new cartridges might be defective, I tried putting the old cartridges back on, but it still barely worked.

The water flows at full pressure for a fraction of a second, then narrows to a trickle. I actually get a little more water by keeping the filter supply line's shut-off valve at about halfway, but it still takes forever to fill up a glass. There are no leaks and the filter cartridges are on properly.

Is there a way to fix this, or is the filter unit itself worn out?


Unscrew the screen filter on the tip end of the faucet and rinse it out.

Many times when working on plumbing debris is dislodged and clogs up that screen.

The culligan under sink water filter comes with connectors for copper tubing, what if you have mesh tubing?



You can get change-over fittings to go from one to the other.
Use a couple of wraps of teflon tape on the threads too.

    The Crystal Quest 8 performs very well. The water tastes great and the flow rate is very good. It mounted easily under the sink; however, the linkage on the outflow side (inflow side as well) are poor quality and leaked repeatedly until I purchased a replacement at the local hardware store for $5. 00. Since that time it has performed very well with no leaks or other problems. It is frustrating that this otherwise high quality product skimped on two very inexpensive parts. However, I still strongly recommend this water filter. (3)I have run 10 gallons through the system and the filtered water tastes worse than the untreated water. If it doesn’t get better I will swap out filters to see which one is the problem.

    To install the spigot I had to drill through a porcelain-covered cast iron sink. While the internet is full of horror stories, this was not that difficult. I completed the hole in under 20 minutes using carbide-tipped masonry drill bits.
