Review: Ispring cares about customer satisfaction - Update: As per my review below, I had some trouble installing due to instructions that were not really clear or suited to this particular product, which Ispring says is brand new. Since then they actually tracked me down and cared about what I had to say. According to them they are rewriting the instructions, not shipping with the funny dust caps, and considering additional parts to make the installation go smoother. I was impressed because in this day and age few companies actually seem to care about what their customers really think. I have come to the conclusion that this company does. And the filter system is now working fine, so don't hesitate to buy. I'm leaving my review below in case it takes a while to update the instructions. It might shave a few hours off someones install time. Changed to 5 stars. If you have any problems they will definitely help, and that is a really good thing. ================================================================ Just finished the installation. I'm a pretty handy monkey, but the installation took about 5 hours of my time (including 3 trips to the home improvement store and a some-what helpful phone call to ispring). First-off the manual is misleading and clearly written for another product or previous version of this product (or maybe a new-fangled sausage making machine). The parts of the manual that do apply to this product, like how to connect the little push-on connectors, suffer from an excess of brevity and lack of detail and conciseness. In an attempt to be helpful to future purchasers of this product, at least until ispring updates these kits and instructions, here's what I learned: First tip: the faucet included in my box does not require a 1/2 inch hole, as the instructions state, but a one inch hole. Actually one inch is too tight, make sure you have a 1 1/8 inch hole saw attachment for your drill, and make it a good bi-metal one if you need to cut through a stainless steel sink. Home depot sells rigid brand bits that suit this purpose. It will run you about $15 unless you already have a rigid brand bit shaft (or equivalent). Second tip: the faucet that came with my filter has three colored plastic hoses already permanently attached. Red, white and blue (I dig the patriotism). Unfortunately which gets attached where is not mentioned anywhere in the manual. In the manual it says to screw the water hose to the bottom of the faucet. Clearly referring to a different type of faucet. Also if the three hoses were just a little longer you would probably not need to bother adding extension hose (an extra leak risk). More on extension hoses later. The colors are mentioned in the desertcart description, way at the bottom, but it bears repeating. "Connect the BLUE tubing of 3-color tubings on the faucet to cold water line, RED to the 1st stage on the right, WHITE to the 3rd stage on the left." Note: This is #ssbackward if you are from an English speaking country ... just saying. Third tip: The filter box itself has funny little horn or funnel shaped things on the ends of the inlet (left) and output (right) angle connectors. These are not mentioned at all in the manual. You can not push the hoses on with these in place (you can try as I did ... if you get excited by frustration) because these are some weird sort of dust plugs. You must pull up with your fingernail on the very outer ring of the connector (pushing it on a spring ever so slightly towards the more bulbous part) then with other hand pull the horn thing out. You can discard these, or I found they make nice hats for very small garden gnomes. Basically you can connect the red and white hoses now by pushing them with force into the connector until they snap. Pull back a little to make sure it is connected. If you need to cut extension hose cut it straight, and use the supplied double-sided connectors. I recommend you push the little blue horseshoe shaped clips (supplied) between that outer part of the connector and the more bulbous part. These (I think?) are to make sure the connectors can't shoot apart from water pressure. No mention in manual about these. You can leave them off, as I did at first, if the under side of your sink needs a good spraying out. Fourth tip: In order to connect the blue hose to the cold water line you need to first install some parts. My sink had a 3/8 inch stainless steel hose with female compression fitting attached to a male 3/8 compression fitting shutoff valve coming out of the wall. Pretty typical I would assume. The kit comes with a 1/2 inch plumbing style thread, male to female connector, with a hole to thread the valve the blue hose goes onto, in the middle. A way to tap into your cold water line, would be eazy peezy if it was threaded for 3/8 compression fittings, but it's half inch and has coarser plumbing style threads. So off to the Home Depot you go. Don't forget another roll of Teflon tape to add to your Teflon tape collection while you are there. Actually the folks at the Home Depot weren't that helpful (surprised?), but the small local hardware store in my old town was. You will need, as it turns out (if your sink is like mine) a 1/2 inch plumbing style male to 3/8 inch compression male adapter to connect your current hose leading to your cold faucet to this new part (btw thread the little supplied valve the kit came with into this part with a little teflon tape first so you can get it good and tight before you are lying on your back under the sink). Then on the other end you will need another short stainless hose (only way I can find to do this with available parts ... why it took three trips) 1/2 inch plumbing female, which attaches to other end of this new part, 3/8 compression female which connects to the part your faucet hose used to be connected to. These parts should run less than $15. Tip five : To connect the blue hose to the metal valve from the previous section you need to put it against the nipple, screw off the nut collar and slide it down the hose temporarily, then push it on the nipple all the way, and man it's a tight little bugger (I sprayed the nipple with a little Pam cooking spray, hey it was in the kitchen), then put that nut collar back on and tighten it down real tight with a half inch wrench. Why these filters don't come with a 3/8 inch compression fittings on each side of the filter box, so you can just screw your standard hoses on that you can get from any hardware store, is beyond me. There must be a reason. Maybe these filters are designed by the same folks who design those charming "blister packs" that you need a chainsaw to open? When I tested the water it was cloudy and tasted a little funny, it got better after I ran the tap for a while. Now it tastes pretty darn good. Even my cat likes it. Hopefully it will not develop leaks.
Review: We originally had a RO system that provided us with excellent tasting water - I am a General Contractor/Home builder. We originally had a RO system that provided us with excellent tasting water, but took up most of the under-cabinet and had to be sanitized with bleach at each filter change.. We don't have hard water and our tap water is drinkable but we wanted it cleaner, and the RO had intermittent leak problems. Could I find a system that would relieve us of the clutter , the maintenance, the water leaks under the cabinet, and still get great water? I decided to give the CU-A4 a shot. SO, Here goes what I didn't like, and then what I liked: CONS: 1. The directions do NOT adequately describe how to make the water connections. To someone who has installed with these type connections it is an obvious "no-brainer", but to the rest of us......... Parts of the directions appeared to be for a different unit, and especially the section on installing the faucet, which was obviously from their RO system and was not anywhere close to describing the faucet enclosed. The faucet enclosed is an "air gap" style which requires a hole in your sink deck or in your counter of 1 1/8" minimum. The threaded pipe that will go through this opening is 1" in diameter. If your existing hole is anywhere from 1 1/2" to 1 1/8" the provided washer will work fine. 2. While there was plenty of 1/4" tubing to do the installation, There are 3 colors of tube, red, white and blue. They provided plenty of blue and white, but not red, therefore I used white and labeled it red to make the job a clean install. 3. There is no discussion in the manual of run-in time after completing the install. The water was barely drinkable after letting it free-flow for approximately 10 minutes as suggested in the notes . After flushing the system with approximately 15 more gallons the water was crystal clear and the flavor has become progressively better and better and has stabilized. PROS: 1. The system IS actually easy to install when you have familiarized yourself with everything they have sent and how it will work with your existing plumbing and sink. AND you have purchased anything you might need so the system will integrate seamlessly. 2. The snap-fit connections work great and do not leak a drop. 3. Twist on replacement filters. How could it get any simpler??? 4. Takes up minimal space. 5. The faucet is all metal construction. 6. After initial flushing and after the first week of use (approx. 1 Gal per day)t the water tastes GREAT. As good or better than any of the bottled waters we have tested against. 7. Every time I have called them (of course during business hours...duh...) they have been very responsive. So, customer service gets a nod. CONCLUSION: Well worth the money, Simple design and install Great tasting water NOTES: 1.There is a review about salt taste. If you have softened water, then you may want to contact your service company regarding what is best to work with your existing system. At the very least do an internet search on how softeners and filters can work together before purchasing this system. 2. There are reviews that mention a 1/2" 3-way valve and having to buy adapter fittings. My system came with a 3/8 to 3/8" 3-way valve (which worked perfectly), so it seems iSpring has changed it to the more typical size. 3. One reviewer gave 3 stars because this system does not reduce TDS and it cost them 10% restocking to return it. TDS is reduced by RO systems, This is NOT a RO system. iSpring does not claim reduced TDS. If you need reduced TDS...iSpring has a very highly rated RO system ( http://www.desertcart.com/iSpring-RCC7-Reverse-featuring-See-through/dp/B003XELTTG/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_sims?ie=UTF8 ) for about $200.00. 4. Most every review says the directions suck. I can attest to that. They do! Layout everything from the box, familiarize yourself with it, identify any problems with your existing plumbing. Take the 3-way valve with you to your local home improvement store and buy whatever you need. 5. Make certain you have the correct tools to accomplish the install. 6. For a water tight connection fit, remove the blue "horseshoe" clips and FIRMLY push the 1/4" tubing approximately 5/16" in to the couplers until you feel it "bottom out", check the assembly by firmly pulling on the 1/4" tubing. Replace the blue clip. 7. I made all of my tubing the same length and long enough for me to remove the filter manifold a couple feet from the cabinet to facilitate changing the filters when that time comes. The tubing is coiled and taped up (love that blue tape), and will be easy to undo and stretch out. 8. I purchased an extra set of filters ahead of time, and store them right next to the unit. 9. Instead of changing my filters by use of a calendar (such as recommended by the manufacturer, every 6 months), I will change them based on usage. Since we only use it for drinking and cooking, we likely will never hit a max avg of 3gals per day. Most filter manufacturers claim 6mos. is relatively equal to 1200 Gals. Therefore 3 gals x 365 days = 1095 gals. (1095 is approx 90% of 1200 filter life). That is when I will change mine, at about 1 year. You also can adjust your schedule based on this formula. If you use 6 1/2 gals per day, you will hit the 1200 threshold at about 6 months. Were you to use 10 gals per day you would want to replace the filters after 4 months. AND so on. If you don't have a basin wrench, get one from your tool store, (see images) Make your life easier.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I connect 2 tanks together for more water storage?**
A: I put two 3.2 gal tanks together with a tee last month. It works fantastic!!

**Q: Anyone know if this will work for Whirlpool RO systems?  The support rep told me any RO tank would work.  Anyone use this for another system?**
A: I don't think it matters what RO system you have.  If it has the option for a reserve tank and the fitting works, then it should fill with water.

**Q: What is the pressure rating for the tank. Can it handle 60 psi?**
A: Remember that the RO system water valve regulates the "internal" pressure, so the tank is not going to see the actual water line pressure. Most valves operate at 65%, so if your water line pressure is 60 psi, the pressure at the tank generally won't be more than 40 PSI. In most setups you'd need the pressure on the water line to be around 92 PSI to get 60 PSI on the tank.

**Q: What is the diameter of the 5.5 gal tank?**
A: Thanks for the question! The diameter of the tank is 12" x 16" (H)

Kindest,

*by B***A on March 30, 2026*

I've just replaced my filters after using the iSpring CU-A4 for 8 months, and I am happy with my selection. The options online are seemingly endless. I had been using a Zerowater pitcher & dispenser for 1 year before I decided to invest in this. I rent a unit in a 4-plex & my wonderful landlord/owner who also lives in the building paid to have it installed. I was aware that I'd be losing functionality from the Zerowater in that this system does not remove TDS. I read up on this as I tend to do, & ultimately I decided that I could live with this to keep the minerals rather than a more expensive, RO-type system that wastes water. I figured if the water didn't taste good I'd return it but it turned out that wasn't a problem. I live in California where drinking water is highly contaminated, & truthfully I would much prefer the best system available. But for today, as a renter with higher priorities governing my spending, this suits me fine. A few final notes: the iSpring vendor videos on YouTube contain incorrect info for how to remove & replace filters. They confuse clockwise & counterclockwise which is obvious as you watch it. Follow the hand action, not the audio description. I posted a comment on one video & saw another person had done so on another. I also mentioned it to the customer service guy who answered the phone when I called. That's my final & most appreciated piece: I called the phone number in the user manual & a person answered the phone. He was kind & helpful -- it was one of those situations where as soon as I had the rep on the phone I no longer needed much assistance. When putting a new filter in you must give it some pressure to get it up in there before screwing it in fully. I had read they gave good service & it is true. That was one of my purchase considerations actually, that the company is U.S.-based. I very much prefer to spend my money locally whenever possible, & one day when I own my own home I will certainly get a California-designed & produced system. For now Georgia has got me covered.
