The new video is lacking teflon tape on the AFW43. Is teflon tape not necessary anymore?
@@user-lj8yq9vs8t Hi there! There should be an o-ring in the female connector of AFW43 so the plumber's tape is not necessary there. As for the male connector, it depends on if there's an o-ring in the female side of your water line. If there is no o-ring, then plumber's tape is necessary and you can get it here: www.123filter.com/ac/ispring-ptfe-industrial-sealant-tape?path=118_87. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us at 678-261-7611 (M-F, 8:30 - 5:30 EST). We are happy to help!
@@iSpringWaterSystems Much obliged!
Correction: On the drain saddle, the bolt faces away from the connection (opposite of what was done). The nuts fit into small recesses on the other side so they don't spin. Thanks for the video. Helpful.
Great video but one change needed. For the feed water adapter (AFW43), these are compression type fittings with a rubber seal. Teflon tape should NOT be used on those threads. The rubber seals the connection, not the threaded connection. Only use teflon tape on the connections without a rubber seal.
Thanks. Just found this, but the RO is now fully functional. My son (who has one) explained the physics to me and a note from your office told me to re-apply the teflon tape on the valve. Great to have it back in service. Thanks for y our prompt customer support.
I just bought this same unit. Thanks so much for posting. Its helps to watch first before installing. I am more confident now
Just finished installing. Thanks for the excellent tutorial!
This was incredibly helpful!
Thank you so much for creating this video!
Very helpful video. Good tips on wrapping the tape clockwise and prepping everything before installing.
Thanks for This great instructional install vid. It was perfect & I easily installed this sys last weekend! No more water bottles & lifting 5 gallon jugs up 3 flights of stairs anymore! Damm you Condo
Great Job & much thanks
Great system
D.
Very good video, no excessive chatter; just straight forward instructions. Great
Excellent. Good volume, upbeat tempo and you use fast-forward effectively. The best of several RO videos I've seen. I think iSpring has a much older "How To" out there on TH-cam. People complained about volume. You should take that down.
Great help. Well done, thanks for the time and clear instructions.
You're a living manual dude! Thanks for posting.
Good Video, fast pace and informative! Thank you!
How can someone not like this video, he made it really simple - thank you.
You did a great explaining this install good job thanks
thanks for putting this video up. Very helpful!
Great video! Very thorough, to the point and no distractions or background noise. Thank you so much!
This a great and super helpful video. It makes installing this system so much easier. Thank you thank you thank you!
Thank you for a great video! Very helpful and successfully installed my first RO system. I got the 7 stage system and couldn't find many videos on it, but I was able to figure out the rest using common sense and some of the package inserts. Thanks again!
This video was a great help. Very quick install after watching this. Looking forward to some fresh tasting water.
This is sold not for human consumption but for aquariums or other clean purpose water. Not for drinking.
Excellent video, my dude. Just finished installing, and the tank is being filled for the flush as I type.
My wife walked in as I was finishing..."You're done? There was a lot less cursing than there usually is for a plumbing job..." 😆

This is a good "how to set up" as well as a refresher. However, if I understand correctly, Spring has adopted a new way of connecting the components to replace the threaded connectors. When you ship out replacement filters, you need to inform customers of the change. When I changed my filters (way past schedule) I saw the gunk the filters take out of my tap water. #1. I will never swallow another drop of tap water. #2. I will change filters at the recommended intervals from now on. This is a great product. The part about how to wrap the Teflon tape is very important. Clockwise.l Otherwise, you'll have massive leaks.
Great video! Thanks! I just installed the APEC RO-HI unit today.

thank you. it was a great help. this explains everything.
Thanks a lot. Best tutorial ever!!!
My o-ring shrank in shipment for my ro filter causing it to pour water out when on which was pretty frustrating. Gave the ring a good stretch and we’re off to the races.
Cudos. Very well done; both the explanations and video. Thanks for taking the time
Great video nice and clear. Thx! Salamat
Great video! Just got this product hopefully this will help me install it
Thanks
Thank you for the video. I would recommend a different approach to install the drain saddle. Instead of attaching it first, then aligning the hole, I would suggest putting the black hose through it and inserting it into the drilled hole first, then carefully push the saddle piece against the pipe and finally attaching it with the screws
This worked for me. It's definitely easier. Also, cut the end of that pipe at a 45° angle to prevent it from blocking.
thanks for the video !!! it helped me hook my RO unit up NO PROBLEMS !! thanks again.
Pretty cool how Sasquatch got a good job working for iSpring.
Exactly my thoughts
Sasquatch helped me do this installation! Thanks, eh.
I kept noticing that myself. Jeez, can you get more hair on your arms and wrist.
this guy has more hair on his arms then I do my whole body... Pretty cool how SASQUATCH got a job working for iSpring LOL oh my god I'm dying over here just saying that in my head!
Shardalon, there is no reason for you to criticize him like that we are all different in our own ways and we should be in bracing ones differences as opposed to shaming them, like you.
Explain in great detail, thank you
Thanks Dr. Nick!
Calm, no drum beat music... very professional!! Thank you for showing your installation. I just bought the iSpring RCC7 system and about to install it. Your video with instructions is very helpful. Question: do I need to pressurize the storage tank for 1st time use? Once again, THANKS!
Thanks for your question. It comes pre- pressurized at 7-10psi and ready to go.
Vinh Nguyen is the tank always has to be pressurized? You use a air compressor to add air to it? What happens if I buy the osmosis system with the booster pump? Would I still need to add air?
Good video! Made installation a breeze 😎
Great video so far! Although common sense can be made about this but before connecting the adapter, I would have suggested to turn off both water lines. Also, I just connected the red line to my system to flush and you didn’t mention anything and I started my water and the red line popped off and half my kitchen floor got sprayed with water. Wish you explained better for that part.
Awesome! Thank you
Thank you for a great video. I installed it using your video and it works great. Dave & Diana
Thank for this tutorial very helpful
Thank you, l got the best info out of this clip
For anyone else looking for flushing instructions, that section starts at 10:43. Everything else in the install was straightforward enough without the video, but the flushing section of the manual could use some clarification.
thanks
See yesterday when I finished setting up my system, it was working fine. I was able to flush my tank twice, and today I was gonna flush it one more time before using the water coming out of it but now the damn tank WILL NOT fill up. Yes, the main valve is on, the tank valve is open, and I do not know what the problem is. I think the automatic shutoff is malfunctioning
I recently bought a 7 stage filter from ebay.Bloody nightmare No instructions at all Wierd fittings and the 8mm tube was difficult to put in standard 8mm push fittings.I couldn't have managed without your concise video.Many thanks. :}

Very good explanation thank you
Very good video...If you want to add a line for the refrigerator, Do I tee off the blue line???
Install was like buttah, thanks!
Wow ! No rap music! Thank you so much!You obviously put yourself in the viewers position , all your explanations are crystal clear and complete.One of the best TH-cam vids Ive watched.Much appreciation.
Just installed mine (7 stage UV). The hardest part was going back to put the Teflon tape on the threads of the cold water line (whoever did the plumbing initially didn’t bother with tape and it wasn’t leaking... so I didn’t think I needed it at that point. I needed it.).
Just flushed the first 3 stages and am waiting my 15 minutes for the system to completely flush- that trickle is indeed very very slow), before I fill and then flush the tank... that is going to be a loooooong wait... but no leaks so far! I love quick connect!
By the way, I bought the ice/fridge kit and it couldn’t have been easier to install. May upgrade the tank at some point...
If you have this system under the sink, how do you connect your fridge to the ice/fridge kit? Is your fridge on the same side as your sink? Or do you run the hose somewhere?
I drilled a hole in the side of my cabinet and ran a line to connect to my ice maker line… that said, this system catastrophically failed. One of the main compartments sprang a pinhole leak. I bought a simpler competitor model (waterdrop) that has front change twist cartridges that are much easier to change out. So much less hassle so far!
@@eternalgreenknight this is great additional information. Thanks for sharing!
Good job thank you
You should HAND-tighten the filter housings. Using the wrench will crack the housing if you use too much pressure tightening. Use the wrench to LOOSEN them when changing filters.
video helped, thanks :)
Thanks so much for this, really well done. Do you know anything about where the Leak Stop Valve goes. The manual sticks it in at the end, but doesn't explain where it goes.
Hi Sara. The leak stop valve goes on the feed water line into the system. If you have other questions, please feel free to contact us at 678-261-7611 (M-F, 8:30 - 5:30 EST) or email us to support@123filter.com. We are happy to help!
I love this tutorial
Teflon tape is actually not needed sometimes depending on the connections.
awsome video
Ty great help 👌🏽
Thank you
Hey there, just wanted to thank you for posting video. Recently purchased this system & used your video as a guide.
Very clear & easy to understand. The colored tubes & connections make a big difference don't they? Thanks again!
Excellent!
Helpful video very clear should make the install much easier. One question, The Manual on Page 8 under Installing the Drain Saddle, Says it is recommended to be installed on a "Horizontal" pipe, yet this video and the pictures in the Manual both show installation on a vertical pipe .. before I drill a hole I just want to make sure this is NOT a misprint as I do have access to a Horizontal Drain pipe between a double Sink. Thanks
Hi there. Thank you for reaching out! You can install the drain saddle either on a horizontal or vertical pipe, but we recommend installing it on a horizontal one to minimize the dripping sound.
i just bought one are you on well water? how do you like it so far? how often to change filters?
This guy is seriously vibing that dude in college who sat in the back of the room reluctantly earning his participation points for the week.
Great video but one change needed. For the feed water adapter (AFW43), these are compression type fittings with a rubber seal. Teflon tape should NOT be used on those threads. The rubber seals the connection, not the threaded connection. Only use teflon tape on the connections without a rubber seal.---only for the steel threads : yes ,using teflon !
any way it is a good demo! ,tks
Excellent explanation. I will have to install mine at the basement wash tub since there is no room under the kitchen faucet and there's a granite countertop with no extra hole for a secondary faucet.
You do not need to wrap teflon tape around the threads on the shut off valves under the sink. They have rubber gaskets to create the seal, the threads are there just to draw it tight to the rubber gasket. Similar to a garden hose, the rubber gasket makes the seal. Nonetheless, great vid.

Will kit hurt anything to use the tape?
@@user-vu3xb7qn8g nope

Part of the black water from the initial flush is from the Feed Water Adapter. Maybe grease or something from the seals. I've been testing each component for leaks as I install and noticed this. I recommend doing an initial flush of your cold water with the Feed Water Adapter installed so the grease / seal residue doesn't go into the RO / Stage filters
black color comes from the active carbon
@@gordonxu2493 I didn't have the carbon filter connected
David Sheeley that’s odd. Without active carbon,the chloride will damage the RO filter pretty fast
@@gordonxu2493 I attached the valve first and ran the faucet to make sure the valve worked. I did not run water through the filters
David Sheeley oh, I see. Thanks. A very great video, a lot of info. I am going to install mine this coming weekend. The one with a pump
Great video
Quick question if I have a wasted (garbage) dispenser where should I install the drain saddle…? I see very little space in the tube for this to be done. Thanks in advance
I've always read, heard, been told that Teflon Tape or pipe dope, should NOT be used on plastic fittings as the lubricity is not needed, and you run the risk of over torquing the fitting which can lead to cracks and then failure.
How often do you change the filters? And how expensive are they?
Dude thanks for the great instructions. You sound incredibly depressed, although I am assuming. I hope all is well with you. Reach out if you’d like to talk.
Great vid!
great video! I was going to by an RCC7 5 stage and just saw on amazon the RCC7ak 6 stage for the same price. What do you suggest I buy? Is the install the same with an RCC7ak 6 stage?
Hi there! The only difference between the RCC7 and the RCC7Ak is the AK. The Ak is one additional filter that adds some healthy minerals back into the water to improve taste. In my opinion, if you're looking a both for the same price go ahead buy the RCC7AK. It you don't want the additional filter you can simply remove it at any time to make your system the RCC7.
iSpring Water System
Thank you! I ordered the 6 stage!
wow so many lines
... I installed a 3M pre-sediment filter to my zero waste RO75 (7.5 pH) system which allows the filters to last a full year or more ...
I have some kind of gray fitting at the housing. The red line pushes into it, but I don't see any way to secure it. There's nowhere for a blue clip like it shows in the video.
Does the bracket support all of the filters when filled with water? I plan on mounting in garage on a wall, not under sink.Thanks
Hi Steve! Thank you for your question! Yes, the bracket is able to support the weight when the filters are filled with water. You can mount it on a wall as long as the wall is able to support the weight of the system since it can be pretty heavy when filled with water. If you have further questions, please feel free to contact us at 678 261 7611 (Mon-Fri, 8:30 - 5:30 EST) or email us at support@123filter.com. Our customer service team will be happy to assist you!

Have you test the water hardness installation? What’s the number? Thank you
Hey serious question. If disposal or dish washer are used will it backflow into ro drain? I think I’m going to get a check valve for the ro drain as well. Appreciate the advice.
Hi James McClaren,
The RO System has both a flow restrictor and also a check valve on the system to prevent any back flow from the drain/waste water back into the system. The additional check valve is not required but you could purchase if you wanted additional reassurance. Please contact us at 678-261-7611 if you have any questions.
Thank you,

For the drain saddle the instructions recommended installing it on a horizontal part of the pipe to eliminate dripping noise. I did this but not realized I am connected in after the p-trap and directly with the sewer. Should I correct this or is it fine?
Hey Levi! Thank you for reaching out! You do need to correct that - the drain should only be installed before the p-trap. If you need any help doing it, please feel free to contact us at 678 261 7611 (M-F, 8:30 - 5:30 EST) or email us at support@123filter.com. We are happy to help!
I just set mine up using this very helpful tutorial. BUT Im very frustrated that I may have been given a broken / used system where I ordered a brand new one. Please suggest what I can do given below issues:
1. when I flushed the carbon filters I did not get any black water coming out...
2. When I was putting in the membrane filter there were water droplets in the chamber as if it is old and used!
3. The Alkaline filter stage is leaking!
Hi there. Regarding your issues: 1) It's ok if there's no black water coming out. It means that there is very little loose carbon in the system. 2) It doesn't mean that you received a used system. Our systems are pressure tested before shipping and since the housing is watertight it takes a long time to evaporate. If you are still worried about it, please feel free to give us a call at 678-261-7611 (M-F, 8:30 - 5:30 EST). We are happy to explain everything to you in detail. 3) We are very sorry about the leaking. Please give us a call and we will help you solve the problem.
So i am changing houses soon enough, Will I be able to install this then take it out and reinstall in my new house? thanks.
Hi MrReedTea. Thank you for reaching out! Yes, You can take the system out and reinstall it in your new house. If you need any further help, please feel free to contact us at 678 261 7611 (M-F, 8:30 - 5:30 EST) or email us at support@123filter.com. We are happy to help!
Great video. I just installed mine, but screwed up the flushing part... I didn't drain it after the third filter (I misunderstood what you meant) and by the time I caught it, I ran 4 minutes of water through the system. Am I ok, or do I need to buy the 4th and 5th filters? Any help would be great!!!
You’re ok! There’s no need to replace your filters, since the excess carbon was instead filtered out by reverse osmosis rather than flushed out. You can easily go back and correct the mistake by wiping down the RO membrane and housing with a paper towel.
Ignoring this step overtime will just cause the membrane to clog sooner than expected, and will lower the production rate of clean water.
iSpring Water Systems I made a similar mistake; forgot to flush the first 3 filters initially so I just ran them through the entire system for 30mins instead of the suggested 10-15.
The water is coming out a little cloudy at this point. Will a wiping/rinse of the RO do the trick, or did I make a worse mistake?
@@sobekenobie Hey man what did you do to correct the mistake? I did the same thing :(
nice sweater!
Question was everything conected and I didn’t flush it out and let it Run for a little bit what should do now? Flush it any way still or to late to do that no black water coming out!
Hi Gaby. Thank you for reaching out. It's ok if you forgot to flush this time. The RO membrane will catch the loose carbon so it won't end up in your filtered water. Just remember to flush next time when you change the filters. :)
you guys should put in filters and clean the system and put on those hoses at the factory
Other then Teflon tape 5,6,7,8 times it’s good video
Hi there. Please, make sure to use as much as you need.
We recommend 6-8 layers to create a good seal to avoid any leaks.
Hi I followed the installation , I have the RCC7AK. Everything was good EXCEPT the water flow from the RO faucet is very bad, not quite a trickle but not as good as you show here (with a full tank). I already checked the flow coming out of the 3rd stage (when cleaning out the carbon) and it was very strong. So what is causing this slow flow? Are the filters (RO Membrane, Alkaline, or something in the tank ?) Causing this?
Hi Ajay,
Please contact our office for assistance at 678-261-7611.
Thank you,

how long does each filter last?
says need bigger than 1/4 inch drain hole so what size then?
