Thank you so much for the help !! Made my job easy. 💪🏼👍🏼
So glad this was helpful, Angel - thanks for letting us know! -CC
Thank you for this video. It really helped out!
That's great, Joey! We're very glad to hear this. Cheers! -NC
Thanks for this. You're good at explaining. I have a 10" filter with a 10" housing, but the filter became moldy because I couldn't screw it shut, it didn't go all the way down to the buttom(rounded off housing at the buttom, two different manufacturors. How is the water supposed to flow when the filter is inside the housing?
What a super easy installation.
You are the best!! Great video!!! Thanks
It came perfect with this video thanks
I just bought it today and my angle valve adapter is leaking.
I tried this GE system and the plastic tubes were leaking from the cold water supply valve. I don't understand why it's all cheap plastic and they just can't get you copper/stainless steel valve connectors/braided hoses. I didnt trust it with the pressure from the supply valve - worried it would burst at night or when no one is home, so I just returned it. Went with Britta for a few months, but I might install something more durable in the future with metal connections.
Just received new cartridges for my Dual Smartwater unit. They are identical to my old ones but water won't go thru them. I put the old ones back in and it works fine ! What's going on ?
The hand spray is removed to make room for the filter control valve assembly. Now do not see how did you secure the faucet side where the hand spray was attached. The water will flow through that opening uninterrupted.
would have been nice if the developers would have used a blue light whenever the filter is activated, that way you know its on
We'll pass this feedback along to the product team for sure!
Great! Really hope to see the upgrade on the market really interested in buying.Thanks.
We'll let them know we've already got 1 interested buyer ;)
How do you reset the light
Which direct should the knob be for filtered water?
I have had to replace this unit 4 times within 6 months. The manifold keeps cracking. Has anyone else had any similar issues or able to tell me why this keeps happening. When I called GE customer service line they just tell me that they are not technician and cannot assist me and that I would have to have a tech come out to the house, which seems a little ridiculous to me for a water filtration system.
Hello Kira, we are so sorry to hear this has happened and we want to help. Our training is for use and care type questions and we would also suggest that one of our trained technicians diagnose and repair this for you: www.geappliances.com/ge/service-and-support/service.htm?ICID=GEARsupportflyout-service Thanks for checking with us. -SF
Hello, the top of one of my cartridges is leaking...any idea why? I have replaced the cartridge to see if that would fix it, no luck
Just installed with left handed valve installation method. Followed the directions carefully, even the flush. But i noticed that my water is still smelling tasting like Chlorine. The filters were factory sealed, so they weren't used. As per your flushing instructions I am turning the valve to the right (towards the faucet). But should I turn the Control Valve to the left to activate the filter system?
Follow up; I tried turning the valve in the opposite direction and that made no difference in odor or taste. I just trying to talk to someone from GE Customer Service and the person I had was completely useless (Sorry GE)! Seems like I'll have to uninstall, and repack and send back to Amazon for a refund. I guess the upside to having a Prime Membership. Also another thing I failed to mentioned is that there are several air bubbles, even after I flushed the system in both directions. Funny never had an issue with any other GE Water Filter Products. I have (on the same supply water line) a single GE Filter and the GE Refrigerator Filter and that water is amazing coming out of my water dispenser on the fridge. Crystal Clear, no bubbles or Chlorine taste or odor!
This video helped a lot thank you 😁
Cold water line adapter threads just stripped. Who knows how long that will slow me down? Just love all these plastic parts.
dont overtighten
I'm sure you can install shark bites to replace the plastic, that's alI I use with all my water connections. But they are more expensive...
How install the GX1SO1R drinking water filtration unit?
What if my supply lines are 1/2"? The product description doesn't say whether it works on both 1/2 and 3/8, but the comments suggest it's only 3/8. Does it come with adapters or do I have to buy those too?
The one is designed for the 3/8” compression fittings. If you have ½” supply lines then the appropriate adapters will need to be purchased to make the system work.
After removing the sprayer the hole is expose. It was never mentioned on the video what you do with the hole under the faucet once you. remove the hose. Please reply.
The hole that is left by removing the sprayer is where the water filter control is installed. I thought the video was pretty clear on that...
I’m wondering who should be hired to get this done. Would it be a plumber’s job? Just curious…
Okay. I'm going to try. Stopped at connecting the cold water faucet line. It doesn't fit the plastic adapter. Oofta.
Just install mine works perfecto 👌
That's wonderful to hear! We're so glad to hear that you've chosen GEA for your home and that you were able to get it installed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out! Thanks. -AT
Is it possible to connect the hot and cold water to the filtration system?
🤦🏻♂️
So this does not filter hot water side?
There is no video of replacing with the old one. Thats sad!
Wow....bought this thinking it was gonna be a great idea but the cold water valve was too big to fit with the supplied connection...

Does it filter 6000 tds
We installed this system 2 weeks ago, using this video, and it went great. Now, 2 weeks later, when filter is turned on it throbs a bit and water flow slows down. What the heck?
Hi, Charlie - you'll want to make sure the filter label is centered and facing forward - this ensures it's fully installed. But if that doesn't seem to be the cause, then you might want to call our Innovations team at 800.952.5039 - they'll be glad to speak with you there. Thanks -CC
charlie ramz what a nightmare
@@geappliances I bought the filter replacement last month it didn’t even last for a month which is supposed to be for 6 months. Please advise...Thanks
@@geappliances I am not buying this garbage....
Is this RO water 💦?
Where did you buy this?
CAN IBYPASS THE CONTROL VALVE AND GO STRAIGHT TO THE FILTER AND THEN COME OUT TO THE FAUCET
Everything I understood except the spray hose that you took out, what do you put other end? I am installing on moen faucet. The faucet has three holes hot water, spray nozzle and cold water. Now tell me if you take out spray hose what you going to put that empty hole. I watched this video at least ten times but you never mentioned about spray hose,
That's a good question. I have the same kind of faucet. I want to know the answers before I purchase this.
So.....what's the answer GE?
There is no more hose. You remove it. It’s gone your not using it anymore because something else your water filter took it’s place.
At the end of the video with everything install do you see the nozzle ? It’s gone.
It would have been better if you also showed the other end of where every other tube you’ve inserted.
What can you do if you install the wrong hose to its oring, is it possible to remove it?
Hello Steve, what is your model number and we will be glad to check into this for you. Thanks -SF
GE Appliances it's just like the one on the video except only one filter. Im going to install it with the light indicator under the sink.
Thanks for getting back with us, Steve. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and encourage you to contact our SmartWater Team for further assistance at 1-800-952-5039. -SF
Thanks for checking with us!
Once red light starts blinking, how much filteration do I have remaining?
I had the same question. Mine started blinking pretty soon. I’m wondering if pressing the button is supposed to set a timer. I doubt it’s telling you the state of the filter. Rather, it seems to me like it’s measuring how much time it has been used, like the timer on a switch. Hitting that button tells you to reset the clock…
Hi Issac & Steve- Thanks so much for your question. We are happy to help! You are correct that the light is set to a 6 month timer. The filter life is 6 months or 300 gallons. If your water is still flowing fine you can reset the filter light and just write the date on the filter so you'll know when to replace it. If you have any questions, please let us know. We are happy to help! JW
We just got this had to go back to home Depot one of the parts were faulty and did not want to screw onto the main water line there’s no seal inside of it we use plumbers tape after getting a new piece and that seem to do the trick it works great but every time you turn off the water you can hear the line smack against the back wall. They would’ve did so much better with braided steel line.. but decided to save on cost.. but really how much more would it be for peace of mind.
Can this be used with a single handle faucet.
Hi!
Sorry for the delayed reply. Yes, this can be used with a single handle faucet, so long as the installation instructions are followed. You can view that document, here: spklr.io/6050mXEG
We're here if you've got other questions! -MS
i'm trying to get the cartridge off so i can replace and put the new one. it's not coming loose or anything and i'm wasting the first one and i'm unable to do anything. how do i get it off so i can then replace it. please help me guys i don't know what i'm doing wrong.
JPD my filter is leaking at the top. I replaced it 3 months ago. If I take off my filter & re- lubricate the top can I put the same filter on. I don't know why it is leaking so I thought if I take it off & redo it maybe it will stop? The red light is not showing also.
Great Video and product but I will stick to my britta....less faff
Does the nob have to be open to get filtered water?
I just bought it today
my angle stop adapter valve is leaking
where can i get a replacement ?
We're sorry for your inconvenience, Eran. Please contact our SmartWater line at 1-800-952-5039 for further assistance. Thanks, JP
I replaced it at home depot
it works great thanks
Thanks for the update, Eran!
Thank you for the update. LM
eran what exactly did you buy at Home Depot that fixed the leaking adapter valve?
I think this one is a little bit more difficult.
Do you have recommended installer in Northern California.
Hi Jeff, We appreciate your interest. We do not have any installers, and recommend checking with your dealer for suggestions. LM
How do you change the filters?
Hello Gareth, thanks for your interest in our GE money saving water filtration system. Please see the use and care manual, on page 8, the instructions for changing the filters: www.myapstore.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-50306.pdf Enjoy! -SF
Atlanta
why does it have a timer ,,to do what?
+Ray Snail This model has a timer built in as a reminder to change the filter after 6 months. Thanks so much for your question. Have a great day!
I need replacement parts for this filter, both female angle stop connector and male cold water line adapter, where can I get them?
Hello Diogo, we will be glad to offer you our GE Appliance Parts link for all parts pricing and availability: www.geappliances.com/ge/parts/?icid=GEARpartsflyout-allparts They will be glad to help further! -SF
I just installed the filtration system, but it's leaking from one of the cartridges. I switched them, but it continued leaking from the same side. Does anyone have any suggestions to solve this issue? I don't want to unistall all the system to take it back to the store
Hi Blanca,
Thanks for reaching out. So sorry to hear about the leaking issue, truly. If the unit's leaking from the fittings, we'd recommend that you fully follow the installation instructions and be sure that the tubing is free of nicks, burrs, etc., and that it's installed at the proper depth. If this has all been followed and the unit is still leaking, then we'd recommend taking advantage of your warranty or reaching out to your dealer to see if they can assist further.
We do hope this helps. If you have other questions, feel free to ask. -MS
@@geappliances I am not buying this garbage, GE should get it out of the market, too many complaints
Hi!
Thanks for reaching out. Hope you change your mind! If you've got questions or concerns about your appliances, know that you're always free to reach out and let us know.
Best wishes. -MS
is this for drinking??
This water filtration system was designed to easily provide filtered water for drinking and cooking! You can read more about this filtration system on the product page here: spklr.io/6054WSyE
The most complicated ever seen
Every time I try to disconnect the sink sprayer to install the "switch" in its place, my wife hits me in the head with a frying pan... I don't think it's a good fit...

No tape!
the tubes are way to long
Hello Bird718, I'll be happy to help! You can cut the line to fit; however, you will need to make sure there is adequate amount of line, just in case it needs to be recut and reinstalled at any point in the future. Here's a link to view the manual...www.myapstore.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-50306.pdf JW
this tutorial looks like a fucking tim and eric skit
Please that flushing water use it in something else. Is clean water that can be used and recycled.
Hello, and thanks for commenting. Generally, we would recommend disposing of the water you use to flush the system rather than using it, as there may be particles in the water as a result of the flushing process.
If you have any other concerns or questions, we’re always happy to offer assistance. All the best! -SG
Water looks more bubble and whiter I'll run it for 5 Gallons then update
Hi, Adrian. Thanks for choosing GEA for your water! Let us know if you have any questions. - JB
too many plastic parts...
No shit
i can buy 645 gals for that price!
+Ray Snail The initial investment is more, but over time it will pay for itself. Thanks so much for your feedback. Have a great day!
$0.15 for a gallon of filtered water? Not very likely...
That is entirely too much work, and I'm only halfway though the video. I just want to get rid of limescale in my cooking water...
this wont fix that.
@@honestlifter
Then what's the point of it? It's supposed to filter the water, isn't it? Well Limescale is in the water. Shouldn't it filter that out?
Nope. That is a common misconception. Hard water needs a softening filter or system. This is going to filter for taste. Scale (magnesium and calcium) require a different medium to remove.
@@honestlifter
Okay. Not only is it too complicated, it's also not what I need. Complete waste of time.
@@H3xx99 yeah we do this for a living but many people don't know the difference between filter and softener and most companies don't make it clear on their product.
The comments on here are sad. What happened to this country when simply plummeting has you by short hairs. This is why plumers get 100 bucks hr.
This is not an easy install based on the video!!! I would never recommend this unit. Buy 5 gallon spring water or use your GE refrigerator filter or Brita filter.
is it cheaper than bottled water? I pay 58 for nestle
+Shayra Castillo The average 24 package of water has approximately 3.5 gallons. This GE Twist and Lock Under Counter Dual Flow Water Filtration System will give you 300 gallons of filtered water before you need to replace the filters. If you buy a lot of water bottles this will save you a lot of money in the future. Thanks so much for your question. Have a great day!
+Samuel Hadeed If you don't feel comfortable with the installation we always recommend hiring a professional. Thanks so much for your feedback. Have a great day!
This should work well for you, William!
Only bad reviews 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 will keep looking for different water filter !!!
This has to be the most useless invention. It's not hard but overly complicated for what I already have in my refrigerator and I can do also with a Brita pitcher. On top of that you loose you soap dispenser. What a stupid idea.
+celestealways It's actually great for consumers who not only like to drink filtered water but also like to cook with it. We think it's a great product!
