iSpring WSP-1000SL Reusable Whole House Spin Down Sediment Water Filter, Siliphos Helps Prevent Scale and Corrosion, 1" MNPT + 3/4" FNPT, 1000 Micron

I purchased the WSP-50SL. Great addition. You can taste and smell the difference as soon as you install it. I also purchased two [Push fit 3/4 inch x 1 inch], one on each side of the spin down sediment filter.Even though they recommend putting the filter as the first stage, I installed my spin down filter “after” the 3 stage whole house filter. I figure it is a final stage filter (50 micron) I can clean easily and notice when too much debris is getting through the 3 stage filter, while will indicate that the filters need replacing. Easy install.

This is my second filter from iSpring. I am very pleased with the quality of the product and how well it works. When I received the filter with Siliphos, I noticed that there was fine powder in the box and discovered that one of the Siliphos balls had broken. I contacted customer service to make sure it was okay to use the filter, and spoke with Sean. After telling me that it was fine, he offered to send me a replacement filter free of charge, which he did.I highly recommend iSpring products, they work well, are relatively inexpensive, are very well built, and they have outstanding customer support!

Love the fact it is self cleaning with just a flush Love foyer is long lasting

I ordered the Spin Down Filter with Siliphos and with the Bypass Valve as to deal with my scale problem. The filter itself seems to be working as advertised for the 2-months I have had it. I noticed a vast improvement in shower glass dried spots and increased spray pressure from the dual shower heads. My ultimate test for this unit is to prevent the scale from accumulating on the heating elements of my new hot water heater. That will take time to tell if this filter will take care of it, but I am hopeful from what I see elsewhere. I would not purchase the filter with the Bypass Valve since it is extremely difficult to turn the valves. There is a plastic wrench that you attach to the plastic handle, and then things can go bad quickly with plastic. I broke the bypass valve lever within a few days, but got it back to the "filter" mode and was going to use the filter as if it did not have the bypass valve on it. I received an email from Laurence at iSpring after I registered the warranty and I told him what I had done. Laurence sent me a new replacement head, which is the upper part of the filter. This new filter can be turned but still very tight. I have a fear of breaking this one as well. If you purchase an iSpring unit, I would suggest to go ahead and buy the filter WITHOUT the bypass valve, and just make your own bypass. I wanted a bypass valve in case the filter started leaking, where I could just bypass it until I had time to fix it. I will probably just make my own one of these days, but the filter itself seems to be working great. Just avoid the type with the valve bypass and get the basic filter and make your own bypass.

This is a surprisingly "beefy" little unit - heavy duty glass container with heavy brass top and well constructed filter which is fairly easy to clean. Simple and straight-forward installation which was quite easy (they even provided some Teflon Tape!). Overall, I'm very impressed with this unit so far and will buy another for my camp house assuming I've encountered no problems after 3 months constant use (only been 40 days since I installed this). I installed this unit ahead of my cartridge filters and there is no doubt in my mind that it will significantly extend their life based on the amount of contaminants/sediment it has already prevented from reaching them - UGH!!!. I purchased the unit with the "Siliphos" filter because I have EXTREMELY hard water and the "Siliphos balls" inside the filter are supposed to help reduce hardness. I can't honestly say just yet how effective they are in reducing hardness and scale because I believe this might take some time to truly be effective. I'll update this aspect of my review after 90 days or so use.My only complaint with this unit is that I wish a mounting bracket were included or at least available for purchase to support it. There's no issue if you are installing it in rigid piping of any kind that is properly supported on either side of this unit BUT if that is not the case and one or both sides are connected to flex piping, the installation doesn't appear as neat and professional. I've not experienced any leaks so far, but it is a concern in the back of my mind over time as the piping is already sagging and I'm trying to determine the best way to support it (ie; can't strap pipe directly to the wall because you need room around the filter to be able to use the supplied wrench to remove the filter canister. I'll add some photos of my solution for this (assuming I find one).

Currently working to re-plumb my entire house and figured some better filtration was needed. I chose this reusable sediment filter and couldn't be happier. Unit itself is very solid and the filter is offered in a variety of micron levels to best meet the needs. When it does start to get dirty or plugged, the filter can be back-flushed or removed and cleaned for extra longevity at no extra cost. Includes the mounting bracket which made installation a breeze. Add your inlet and outlet fittings along with a couple of shut-off valves and your pretty much done.A big shout-out to Nick in the customer support department too. I had a couple of post-sale questions regarding the unit I had purchased, and Nick was great in responding quickly and answering all of my questions. This level of support is getting increasingly rare nowadays, so getting a quick response from Nick was greatly appreciated.

Works as advertised .Removes a lot of sediment from the water and drains effectively.It would be nice if it was larger.

Llegó dañado pero ya he tenido antes este modelo y son buenos.

El filtro funciona perfecto y elimina las partículas grandes antes que los filtros principales. Cuando se recibió el filtro, faltaba la llave. Me puse en contacto con Nick en ispring y rápidamente me envió un reemplazo. Nick fue muy útil y rápido para ayudar.

My well water had a light red hue and occasionally smelled of iron. So I bought the ISpring 50 filter with Siliphos to see if it would remove the colour and smell. Yup it did.The first package came with an empty filter and no Siliphos balls. I contacted Spring and Julius was kind enough to send me a new filter, this time with the siliphos balls. Thanks Julius.Install was easy. I used shark bite 3/4" fittings that I attached to the filter with plumbing goop and not teflon tape. It just works better and, no leaks. Cut the 3/4" pex just after the valve from the pressure tank. Slid the fittings onto the pipe and done. So far only a small sign of dirt being captured by the filter. Nice to see it outside of my water glass. Installed for a week so early days, but good experience with customer support and no more red colour to the water and no smell. Pretty happy as my latest water test came back today: the water is 0 bacteria of any kind and the water coming from my tap is clear.

Excelente filtro, fácil mantenimiento y lo mejor es que se puede detectar cuando se acumulan sedimentos, el filtro es lavable permitiendo manter limpio el sistema. Es cierto que el costo es mayor que un filtro normal, pero los beneficios son mucho mayores, una buena compra.
