I rent my apartment and I needed a solution that could be easily removed when I moved. The EPS 1000 was perfect and a clear difference from the Brita jug filter I had been using. I spend less in filter changes and my water is of much better quality. I especially like that the filter reduces VOCs – I did my research and that is definitely something most filters do not do, including reverse osmosis. The filters are very easy to change too. Thank you Al for your patience in showing a non-technical person like me how to install it.
