AQUA CREST INL 5 Years Inline Water Filter for Ice Maker with 1/4-Inch Direct Connect Fittings, Idea for Ice Maker, Refrigerator, RV, Inline Refrigerator Water Filter Reduces Chlorine, Taste& Odor

Amazing product, great taste on the water and ice from the filter, extremely easy to install and overall great value for the money spent. Saved the trouble of installing a whole home unit or even under the sink unit, the filter fits perfectly behind the refrigerator and works like any other quality filter. A easy DIY project to improve the water quality from the refrigerator, always helps to have your water double filtered without the high costs.

Light weight. Easy to install and a vast improvement over our old filter and base.

It was as easy to install as any plumbing part. It came with brackets to support I on the back of the refrigerator. Works just fine.

We started using this filter 8 months ago. My backstory is similar to most everyone else’s: got tired of buying the overpriced proprietary filters for the fridge, so I sought out an inline filter as the solution. I had bought Aquacrest filters in the past for a Pur pitcher and was very satisfied with the quality (both taste and longevity), so I figured I’d give the brand a try for a fridge filter. Install was very straightforward. If you’re even remotely handy around the house, this will be no problem. We don’t live somewhere where we have to worry about contaminates or particularly hard water…this is purely for taste. That said, don’t overlook the fact that like most simple inline filters (and UNlike pitcher filters), it’s not going to reduce TDS, at least not enough to matter. Pre-install, my cheap little TDS meter read 190 and after install and bleeding out the first five gallons of water, it was around 180. That said, the taste of our water noticeably improved. I wouldn’t say it was bottled-water-quality, but it was better than straight from the tap. My biggest qualm is simply the life of the filter. “Five years/5,000 gallons” is an insane claim. We’re eight months in and I’d say it’s pretty much done. I can’t tell a difference between tap water and the fridge water running through this filter at this point. We’re a normal-sized household and definitely not using anywhere close to 20 gallons per day from the water/ice dispenser (20 gallons per day for eight months is roughly 5k gallons.) If I WAY over-estimate, then let’s say we pull 5 gallons per day on average, just to use an easy number. Then this filter should have lasted us almost three years, not eight months… Anyway, the bright side is that even if it needs replacing every 6 months, that’s the same frequency as the proprietary filters and it’s 1/3 the cost, so still a win. Would I recommend it? I think so, but I’m going to try a different brand next time to see how it compares.

Easy to install and resolved issue with tainted flavor in new braided stainless steel water line.

5 year Water filter arrived in a timely manner, and all installation parts worked very well.

This is Aqua Creat 5-year Inline Water Filter is a good solution for my Coffee Maker. I DIY installed easily and haven’t had any leaks in the two months since installation.

I used this to filter water from my outdoor faucet to my outdoor Ice maker. It works great and came with all of parts to connect it properly.
