Alexapure Pro Stainless Steel Water Filtration System - 5,000 Gallon Throughput Capacity

When I tested for impurities it came up 74 whereas my tap water came up 67. I returned it with no problems and got a refund.

Excelente producto y revuelto!

We have had this operating now for 10 weeks. So far it has been fabulous. My kids prefer this water over all bottled water as does my husband, and he’s pretty picky. I feel good saving lots of plastic water bottles from a landfill, saving money and serving my family the best quality water, living water free of pesticides and fluoride. As others stated, it is easy to set up. The flow rate was totally fine the first time we used it, I have been refilling the top on average twice a day, and refrigerating water in pitchers. The filter is still working great. I have bought a few back up filters on sale so have them ready when we need them. The one thing I would tell you is to be careful not to fill the top too high, even 1 inch from the top can be too high if water is above the spigot in the canister below. The best rule of thumb is to replace the amount you are taking out as you draw it. UPDATE: We have had this working a year now and it is a staple for all of us. I had to replace the filter once since we owned it. A few things to note. I had wanted to place this on my kitchen counter and it slightly blocks the full extension of the overhead cabinets being fully open. Ideal spot is out of the range of overhead cabinets. It’s about an inch too tall. The water tastes as great as ever. We are very pleased with this investment and have on hand backup filters which I get on sale to stock up. When we went on vacation we followed the advice of the company and took the filter out and put it in a ziplock bag, double bagged, with water to keep it wet since we were gone for a full week. When we got home we popped it back in and the filter performed as normal with no problems whatsoever. I love this unit for the price. It looks nice. I have heard the spigot can go and it is also easy to replace. So far so good!!

This is the second Alexapure water filter system I've purchased. We have brown water in a community where I work and it cleaned that water and it tasted so good! I used to buy bottles of water, this has saved me a fortune! I bought this one for my home where the water smells like chlorine. It works so well! You may need to purchase filters more often if your water is brown or full of contaminants , but worth every penny!

It doesn't work like the patriots say. It takes about 4 days to filter a gallon of water. By that time, the rainwater that I'm trying to filter is growing algae and turning green, further plugging the works. I've phoned 4patriots 4 times for heap with this problem and each time they tell me that it sounds like the filter has an air lock. The first fellow told me to take the filter out of the top section and place it upside down in a container full enough of filtered water to cover the tube that comes out of the bottom of the filter and that should take care of the air lock. Where do I get filtered water? The thing didn't make enough to fill my juice container 1/3 full. I'm at my cottage and the nearest store with drinking water is 35 miles away, but i got in my rig and went to town for clean water. I never saw any bubbles when I covered the thing and after 24 hours it was no better at filtering than before. I gave it a few days to see if it would improve (during all this time the filter was covered with water, so I don't think it had a chance to dry out) and then I phoned again. This guy told me I'd have to scrub the filter under clean running water for five to ten minutes with a scotch-brite pad to clean the gunk off the outside and the force water from the tap through the bottom to push out anything that might be blocking the filter pores. I'm at the cottage if I had clean running water coming out of my tap, why would I need an Alexapur? I bought the thing believing that I could filter the water that was in my rain barrel, which is the water we use for household water, except for drinking. I buy that in town, but I thought that if I bought this thing I wouldn't have to go in so often. When I explained this to the guy, he told me that I was probably out of luck 'til I could get to running water and clean it, then he ended the call. When I asked him how long it should filter the top tank to the bottom tank, he told me between an hour and a half and two and a half hours depending on how clean and new my filter is. It was bought in June and to this date (Aug. 17) it's filtered only about 7 to 10 gallons, but the filter hasn't been dry, it sits in the water it won't filter all the time. The other times were no better, with them telling me essentially the same thing. As soon as I get back to civilization I'll be returning it, I guess.

We’ve only had this for a few weeks but our well water is very iron rich. It comes out of the tap yellow and has an off putting smell. It isn’t unsafe to drink, just unpleasant. After trying multiple expensive whole house filters, we still couldn’t get the water to drinking quality. After some research I landed on the Alexapure. One filter took forever and seemed to develop an airlock during its initial filtering. I ordered a second filter and we get water much faster now. If the filters weren’t so expensive I’d consider a third. As is we can get 3-4 gallons of filtered water per day if I stay on top of draining the bottom tank and refilling the top. Usually we don’t use that much but I like to stay on top of the filtered water stores just in case. The cloudiness, yellow tinge and most importantly, the taste and smell of the water are very much improved. The water tastes clean and has no odor.
