What Customers Are Saying

The water filtration system provides great-tasting, clean drinking water with significantly reduced total dissolved solids compared to previous systems or tap water. Many users report the system is easy to install and produces increased water volume and pressure, allowing for faster filling of containers and better performance with ice makers. While some noted a slight noise from the pump, most found it to be minimal and not disruptive. The system is also appreciated for its ability to work well with low water pressure environments.

Works great and easy installation

This is my second RO unit. The first was a WAY overpriced unit I paid to have installed. As the cartridges were in need of replacement, I decided to look into APEC. I live in the country and have a well, so pressure was variable. The RO-PERM was amazingly easy to install and the unit worked right off. TDS went from 267 to 15. Output pressure more than doubled from my previous unit. The permeate pump is quite audible, but I isolated the unit and wrapped the pump in rubber sheeting. Still...

For lower water pressure

This system works well in our low water pressure house. It greatly improved the taste of my water. The quality of the city water and well water declined significantly, my dishwasher filter needs to be cleaned weekly before I installed this system. I am happy with this purchase.

12PPM

It was very easy to install, just read the instruction manual and follow the step while you install this system. It’s good to know where each hose will be located first so you can have an idea where to put the parts and tanks before actually installing the system. The system works great and the pressure is fantastic.It is very efficient at removing TDS.(From 343 to 12 PPM)

Easy to change filters

I have had my system installed long enough to need to change the RO filter for the first time, and continue to be very pleased with the quality of the water. I installed my system in the basement and split the output to feed both my kitchen sink, and my ice maker. It makes marvelous ice cubes that are crystal clear. It also makes it very easy to access when changing filters. You will enjoy this system once you put it in.

This system is great for low water pressure home.

I love this system since my home has low water pressure. I am glad I bought it. It did increase the delivery pressure at faucet and it fills the tank really fast. Also it does not need electricity to run. I love it. PS: It was very easy to install and water taste is the best.

product works great

This product works great. The installation was easy with very detailed instructions. The water flow rate is better than I expected. The water coming out of the system is pure and taste great. We couldn't be happier. I would recommend this R.O. system to anybody. It far exceeds the other R.O. system that I replaced.

Excellent water tastes

The installation was easy and good water pressure with the pump. My family and I are drinking more water now, and we absolutely enjoy the taste of it! The pump is a bit noisy though. Otherwise great.

works great and the water taste great

We had one of these in our previous house. When we moved to Montana I really wanted another great system like this. Since we have low water pressure we got the RO-PERM which also works great and the water taste great.

best investment

The quality of this unit exceeds my expectations. The three pre-filters need to be replaced once a year using APEC branded filter. The inline filter needs to be replaced every 3-5 years. The TDS reading was 561 and now is 32.

Good system!!

This system satisfies everyday needs of my family. I asked a plumber to install it. It took him about 30 minutes. It works great and plus it is made in America. We tasted the water after installed it and the water tastes so good. I highly recommend it.

Good for low water pressure

The RO-PERM system is simply amazing. My house water pressure measures around 35 psi. Due to the low pressure I have had trouble with other RO filters producing enough water. The RO-PERM system completely eliminated the pressure problem. Using the free gift TDS meter my source water measured at 376! The RO-PERM filter reduces the TDS amount to 13!! It is great to know that I now have clean and healthy drinking water and ice for my family, dog, and aquarium!!

I can't believe how much better the water is now!

I installed the RO system last Saturday. I can't believe how much better the water is now! I always thought city was good, but now I have "bottled water" quality drinking water. This summer when the City of Toledo's drinking water goes bad from microcystines, my family will be safe. The ice cubes are crystal clear (so is the water) and the permeate pump gives me more pressure at the ice maker than I had using City water. My wife commented on how nice the brushed nickel faucet looks at the sink a...

Great system! Highly recommend it.

I couldn’t be happier with my purchase of this system. This is the only system that I have seen that has this type of technology that enhances the performance of low pressure installation. I only have about 35 psi water pressure and no electrical outlet nearby. So I ordered this system and installed it yesterday. It looks fantastic and performs perfectly. I was impressed that the TDS meter was included in the package while I purchased this system. My tap water was 150 ppm and now down to 20 ppm....

Installed it with no problem. Water tastes great now. Great product!

I did a lot of research before buying this. I love it. It is a great product and both the U.S.quality of the build and ease of installation with no leaks was a pleasant surprise. Follow the instruction in sequence can help you to install the system easily. I installed this system in the basement. The company sent extra tubing for the tank and waste water at no charge. The permeate pump does make some noise but only after you use water. It is well worth it since it increased efficiency. As for t...

We have better tasting water delivered at greater pressure now.

The system has been working 6 weeks now. So far no leaking and no other problems I was surprised by the difference in water taste after installed the system. The system was also easy to install which the quick fit connectors. I put the filter under the sink and I also hooked this up to the ice maker. It has plenty of pressure to run the ice maker. I am very happy with the purchase.

Awesome RO system

Awesome RO system that is made in the USA! My husband installed it within a couple of hours. We used this for our drinking water for a few months now and it is very health since it removes all the contaminants from the water.

This is made in USA product and it produces pure water.

I purchased this system about four years ago. I have not had a problem with it. No leaks so far but the permeate pump is noisy when working. The water tastes absolutely tasteless the way water should! Also, the water is so clean that it will keep my coffee maker and ice maker clean. We don’t have to buy any bottle water anymore and I feel healthier when drinking water. Btw, the RO Perm offers a very nice water pressure with no electrical requirements.

High quality product

Just wanted to write a quick note to let you know how pleased we are with our new RO-Perm system. I ordered one to replace my Kinetico system which was ten years old, and the installation could not have gone any smoother. I'm blown away with how easy this system was to install (I'm not the handiest) and how well it seems to be functioning. I would highly recommend your systems to anyone who is thinking about adding a system at home. I looked at all the major systems and yours is by far the most...

A customer for life!

I have well water and a salt based water softener system. The water wasn't horrible, but I wanted cleaner and safer drinking water for my family. I researched different systems for a couple weeks. Every time I reviewed what I had found the APEC systems were always the best when you considered the quality of the system components, the ease of installation, and the potential for simple future maintenance and repair. I went with the RO-PERM system, upgraded to the 14 gallon tank, added 2 ice maker ...

Clear instructions

I recently purchased the RO-PERM reverse osmosis system. I have 3 young boys and I want to make sure I am giving them the cleanest drinking water I can. After much research, I decided on a reverse osmosis system from APEC water due to the high quality of your products. I installed the system in our basement so I would have more room under my kitchen sink. It was easy to install thanks for the great instructions. The hardest part was snaking the longer water line across and through the basement c...
