Works great By Andrew on 3/5/2018

This filter works really well. I bought it to use after the under-sink RO drinking water tank since some people had complained the storage tank made the water have a slight taste. I never noticed the taste but since this filter is cheap and is good for 1500 gallons, I figured it was worth it. I don't have any issues with flow restriction. One thing that might be helpful...it comes with little pieces of plastic inside the quick-connect fittings (you can see them in the photo above) that have holes in them. These pieces look like they are meant to stay in and the RO tubing goes over them. I thought I was sent the wrong size or something and was ready to return this. After two calls to BRS (the first person didn't seem to understand what I was saying and assured me I has the correct product), the second person mentioned these plastic inserts are meant to come out before use. This isn't obvious and no paperwork is included with the filter. The inserts take a decent amount of force to remove, and you'd think you were breaking something...you aren't. Pull them out.

Excellent Quality By Todd A on 4/1/2017

Excellent quality. No issues with water pressure. 1/4" fittings compatible with most residential RO systems. BRS filters have worked perfectly with my 5 stage APEC and have saved $$$. I recommend BRS to all my friends.

Too restrictive By Benjamin on 11/28/2016

I decided to buy this filter as a replacement for my drinking water RO system because it's American made and much higher quality than the one that came with my RO unit. Don't get me wrong, the filter is nice, but every RO unit I can think of that I have come across uses 3/8 fittings in the final polishing filter because the faucet and tank all come standard as 3/8 for better flow. I didn't think there would be any problems seeing as how BRS sells RO units with this same filter installed. So I bought all the adapters to reduce everything from 3/8 to 1/4. Big mistake! My water flow out of the faucet is terrible in comparison to a 3/8 line set up.

The only reason I am keeping it 1/4 is I am getting a delivery pump for an ice maker and will tee of the line to the faucet as well.

The filters are priced right but I highly recommend BRS offer the K2520-cc model of this filter that has the 3/8 female thread so people have some kind of choice. I also recommend they convert their drinking water RO units to 3/8 as well when it's coming to the tank, faucet and final polishing filter.

Great Taste! By Gerry on 6/20/2015

I got this filter for my 6 stage BRS RODI and got it tee'd off right before the DI canisters. I'm using it to make drinking water for the house and the taste is noticeably different from plain RODI. My family and I really love the taste this add to the water.

I installed this inline carbon filter between my storage tank and my faucet and it has made a big impact on the taste of the drinking water. Water tastes much better. Fast shipping, recieved in 2 days and very simple to install.

Almost forgot to buy the "2.5" x 2" RO Membrane Housing Clips" that mounts this "Omnipure Inline Carbon Block " to the RO housing. Water tastes so much better after adding this Inline Carbon Block

pump saver By Reef Junkie on 6/27/2011

I have this filter setup before my RO pump, gives me extra piece of mind knowing that im preventing any debris from entering my pump and potentially shortening it's life span.

Great product, simply connection, clear indication of water flow for setup. This website has everything to get your sediment filter up and running with RO unit.
