I know I’m from two years in the future but without your video I would’ve had a hell of a time installing my mother in laws waterdrop system, thank you and subscribed

Very nice presentation, Seth! I've had several RO installations. One thing I like to do is to have the RO faucet closer to the right edge of the sink so that if you rotate the faucet all the way to the right, it is still just inside the sink, but you can fill a large pot by resting the pot on the countertop, sticking a little bit over the sink. Then you can fill the pot without having to hold the pot at the same time. The center of gravity of the pot is still on the countertop. My RO faucet's center is about 4 inches from the right edge of the sink. Cheers.

WOW. One never knows what your next video is about. Very interesting. I bought a unit 3 years ago. It is still in the box. You made it look easy enough. Now, to make sure the wife doesn't know I watched this video.:) Great stuff.

Wow! What a wonderful video! Thanks for your sharing! You showed the details of our product and the correct way to install it, and it's very informative too!

Thanks for your help Seth. Just installed it at my GF’s apartment and now I’m the man😉.

Your video was helpful to me . I installed mine a couple of days ago . I received a different fixture for the water inlet adapter though . The one I have does not have the inlet tube locking piece . It is just a standard barb type fitting with a nut . I thought I was missing the locking collar, so I sent a message to the company via Amazon and they called me the next day and told me that they had customers who experienced troubles with the original style inlet adapter ( such as you have ) and they now only use the new type ( such as I have ) . However, I had already fitted the tube to the barb, before they called . One reason that caused me to be certain that I had an improper piece is that I found it impossible to fit the inlet tube over the barb . The hole was barely large enough to get started, but the tube was too rigid to get it to move further up the barb . I resolved that issue by boiling some water and putting the tube into it for about 45 seconds . Once I did that, the tube fit on the barb nicely . You may wish to inquire to the company about getting the new adapter . Apparently the water hammer shock that is experienced in the tubing, when the unit turns off, may cause the tube to be ejected ... BTW - What TDS reading are you getting for your tap water before and after filtering ? My tap water is over 250 before and about 12 after .

Thanks for sharing this, you are braver than I am, posting a plumbing video. My plumbing projects ALWAYS have at least 1 leak to address, and usually require a trip back to the hardware store.

The installation process for the Waterdrop D6 reverse osmosis water filter: 1. **Preparation:** - Unpacking the Waterdrop D6 reverse osmosis water filter kit involves carefully removing all components from the packaging and laying them out in an organized manner. - The instruction manual should be consulted to ensure that all necessary components are present and accounted for. 2. **Shut Off Water Supply:** - Locating the water supply valve under the sink is typically the first step. This valve should be turned off to prevent water flow during installation and to avoid any potential leaks or accidents. - Any existing leaks or water around the installation area should be addressed and cleaned up to provide a dry and safe working environment. 3. **Purge Pressure from the Line:** - Purging pressure from the water line involves turning on the faucet and letting it run until the water stops flowing completely. This step ensures that there is no residual pressure in the line, which could cause issues during installation. 4. **Attach Adapter:** - The provided adapter is used to connect the water supply line to the reverse osmosis filter unit. This adapter ensures a secure and leak-free connection between the existing water line and the filter unit. - Proper alignment and connection of the adapter are crucial, and it should be tightened securely using appropriate tools if necessary to prevent any leaks or looseness. 5. **Install Faucet:** - Drilling a hole of the required size in the sink for faucet installation is a precise task. Care should be taken to choose a suitable location for the faucet that provides easy access and functionality. - The mounting washer with a hole is placed onto the sink surface, and the power cord of the faucet is fed through it before securing it with the appropriate nut. This ensures a tight fit and prevents leaks around the faucet base. 6. **Connect Tubing:** - Using the provided tubing to connect the water outlet of the reverse osmosis filter to the faucet inlet is straightforward but requires careful attention to ensure proper insertion and connection. - Blue clips are used to secure the tubing in place and prevent it from coming loose during operation. These clips help maintain the integrity of the connections and prevent leaks. 7. **Install Drain Saddle:** - Drilling a quarter-inch hole in the sink's drain line and attaching the drain saddle is a critical step in ensuring proper drainage and disposal of wastewater from the filter unit. - The red tubing is inserted into the drain saddle according to the manufacturer's recommendations, ensuring a secure fit to prevent leaks or dislodgement. 8. **Prepare Filter Unit:** - Removing the rubber tabs from the drain outlet and inlet ports on the reverse osmosis filter unit is necessary to facilitate proper tubing connection. - Pressing the tubing firmly into the ports until they reach the recommended insertion depth ensures a secure and leak-free connection. The use of blue tabs further reinforces the connections and prevents accidental disconnection. 9. **Complete Installation:** - Double-checking all connections and fittings for security and leaks is essential before proceeding. Any loose or improperly connected components should be addressed promptly to avoid issues later on. - Turning on the water supply and allowing the system to flush for the recommended duration ensures that any impurities or debris are flushed out of the system, ensuring optimal performance and water quality. - Testing the system by filling a container with water from the newly installed faucet verifies that everything is working correctly and that there are no leaks or malfunctions. 10. **Final Checks and Adjustments:** - Verifying the proper functioning of features such as filter life indicators and faucet swivel ensures that the system is operating as intended. - Making any final adjustments or modifications based on specific needs or preferences ensures optimal performance and user satisfaction. 11. **Completion:** - Once all steps have been completed successfully, the installation process is considered complete. - Cleaning up any mess or debris from the installation area and disposing of packaging materials properly ensures a clean and tidy workspace. - Enjoying clean, filtered water from the newly installed Waterdrop D6 reverse osmosis water filter is the final reward for a job well done.

Neat, that went quite well. Thanks for sharing this.

Nice one mate. Laughing at the 18:07 point as it did a little bit of a water hammer dance for you. Just like a ram pump. Thanks for sharing this install

You can trim that PEX down to 14" above cabinet floor. It'll make connections easier and shutoff more easily reachable.

If you have the space instead of wasting the waste water run it into a 55 gallon drum for watering plants

Thank you for this video. I got myself on because of your reviews. Are you still going to make a follow up video with the filter replacement?

Nice work

Hey bud! Thanks for the great video! Question: Did you attach a blue clip on both ends of the white tubing? Mine only allows a blue clip on the RO box end. Thanks!

thanks for this video. I also got the Remineralization filter. where does that go?

Its amazing the cotter pin clamp to secure the water line connections where chosen over a compression fitting? I only suspect that in time they will loosen the connection fail. A bit cheesy on the engineering side for such a complex 5 stage water device? Just my 2 cents...

Not a installation question however Is the TDS meter actually measuring the water output at the faucet exit? Is there a sensor connected to the faucet device? The other Waterdrop model registers the TDS reading internally and appears to to read the TDS at the facet exit? Would be nice to do a TDS meter test at the faucet exit to confirmed the output reading? That way the proof is in the putting. Thanks

I got an iSpring RO800G, having major problems with my TDS being high every time it sits unused for a few minutes. Are you seeing it start high and then go lower with some use? Our tap is 445, it can get to 30 or so but after sitting, goes back up to 80-380!

Nice Kitchen Seth! Do me a favor though, and lay your drill down. please don’t ask me how I know. But it’s cheaper/easier than repairing the damage from a forstner bit into granite.

Curious how it's going 1yr later. Did you find that you have TDS creep when you first turn it on? Higher TDS for the first 20-30 of use?

What do you think of the sterilization thing they sell?

Wait. You’re NOT a water filterologist???? 🤣 Sharp looking system!

I have a well myself. How long are you getting out of your filter??

It looks the same as Brondell RO. Are they made by the same company?

Where is the filter install exactly?

Does the company send someone to install the item?

I'm using the model with single filter WD-RF10. After 8 months (After about 3000 L of water) . I cut the filter and the water inside is orange, due to very small Orange particles. In my Town the water Is good and now I'm worried.... I dont want It to be the filter that lost those particles.... I have some videos, maybe I Need to share It.....

cold water only ?

Couple of questions. How has it been so far, what don't you like about it, and have you had to change the filters yet? I'm looking to buy this one but have heard mixed reviews. Wanted to hear what you had to say before I pull the trigger.

how you know dirty water flush out?

How do I get this device? What is his correct name ? Thank you .

Like 62😉👍✨

Very nice installation video. Pity the flow is pathetic. I’d rather consider a central filter

My tds says 14 to 17

Whats the filter life?

Water drop claims 600 gpd. How can this be when the highest membrane rate available is only 150? And with a waste water ratio of 1.5:1, the membrane will foul in no time, depending on how hard your water is. 4:1 is crazy but correct and will lengthen the life of the membrane.

Don’t you already have water filtration on the house water for whole house

👍👍응원합니다 👍👍🇰🇷

It's kind of loud. The water flow looks incredibly slow, you'd have to wait a week to get 600gal out.

Seth make sure to add some minerals to your water because reversed osmosis filters make water clean as distilled which isn't too healthy and can flush minerals from your body.

Polushko-pooolye

waaay too loud

I can't buy this and move to another house then. Complicated installation
