Aquaphor is 7.6 based on my office tap water as lab tested (mild alkaline). Cartridge u can just twist and replace yourself, it is very simple

If you use hot water frequently then it is good to have water dispenser, i use it to sterilize my baby's bottle, reheat milk, cook cup noodle and etc etc, so we use hot water like almost every hour.

If you only use occasionally (like once a day), it is actually waste of electricity to have the dispenser, get a mini size kettle, boil small amount of water quite fast also

Espring is 1 year once or 5000L, the machine will warn you when it is time to change

i mean it could have problem if it is not a good one, there is a risk. if like UV light from amway then should be durable

420watt for hot water
85watt for cold water

You can purchase the fiilter and cartridge from me, i will courier for free, if u need installer, i will get penang plumber to install.

Change the cartridge once a year, just press and twist, can change within 1min. Dispenser, checked with my supplier, they dont clean it but if u wanna clean is not difficult also, i can guide u how to do it. This is similar to our hot flask at home, we rarely need to clean it. If you need a technician to clean, then i just get my plumber to clean as well but they gonna charge. Aquaphor concept is for customer to DIY on the maintenance, so you save on the labour cost

well, different customers have different need and preference. You can always opt to purchase a 3 sec dispenser such as seers.

Why people opt for dispenser bcoz it is direct water connection, you dont have to keep on fill up the tank, it is automatic . . .

Current promotion price for Aquaphor Crystal Eco drinking water filter is RM 1699

Nice photos bro thanks for sharing and the comments

Same here, we dont drink much cold water so we turn off the compressor. There are also customers who add a timer socket to only turn on the dispenser in the morning

You are correct But when u notice there is water rationing, turn off the water dispenser to prevent overheating though it has a thermostat inside

YES, i do have installer in IPOH, if u r interested in getting Aquaphor just PM me your details. TQ

Yup, water dispenser can still work without electricity. The electricity is just for boiler and compressor.

To save electricity, can add a timer plug as shown previously (only turn on in the morning when we need it)

Yup, NESH wins in terms of sterilize and deodorize thing as it has ozone.

Aquaphor win in terms of filtration technology, price, space saving and no electricity required

Just compared the filter media used in both brands and you will be able to tell which is better

However, do google on risk and disadvantage of Ozone water as well to have a read.
Here is one of them, i have research a little on this and it is still not 100% clear how harmful it is in the long run but in the short run it is definitely safe

i. It is drinkable (even syabas water as they claim in their website is drinkable)
https://www.syabas.com.my/consumer/syabas-water-quality

Question is, is the water Healthy or not for long term consumption? Drop by my shop if you need to know more

Here is an example, this crystal eco has been used for 1 year, you can see the first and second cartridge is dirty while the final filter is clean. So, if you are using a single stage filter, you will be drinking the contaminants in the second filter.



ii. Aquaphor Solo is RM 699

iii. Replacement for Solo is RM 150

iv. Alll brands the same, either replace every 12 months or when it reaches capacity (whichever comes first). However, due to malaysia's poor water quality, the "Capacity" claim by most companies are not accurate. So, do get a higher capacity filter than what you really need. If you have an outdoor filter, then it should be OK to follow the "Capacity" claim. Why change 12 months? Bcoz carbon adsorption effectiveness drops over time and most effective within 1 year, for other reasons you can also ask me when you are in my shop if you need to know more

If you have time, i do suggest reading through this discussion thread, lots of discussions and info discussed before here. However, most people do not have the time, that is why i suggest them to drop by my shop

Thanks bro. Bz recently, didnt have time to check the forum

ok PM you but actually the method not tested yet, just logically sound correct as recommended by one of my customer

It is to cut cost on replacement cartridge for low usage but have pros n cons also to it.

done some reading..

"Cyanotoxins are naturally occurring toxins produced by several species of cyanobacteria under certain conditions"

"Cyanobacteria (also called blue-green algae) are water-dwelling bacteria that are able to generate their own energy through photosynthesis"

As our water tank, pipes and water filters are not exposed to sun light, there is no way Cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) can grow. Moreover, Cyanobacteria could be removed with chlorine which is already in our syabas water. Cyanotoxins in the other hand could not be removed with chlorine and boiling it will only make the toxin concentrated and more dangerous. Unless our water tank is exposed to sun light (not covered) or water treatment plan is affected with the algae boom, then only we will need to be worried with Cyanobacteria.

"Current treatments proven to reduce cyanotoxins include activated carbon, slow sand filtration, conventional filtration, membrane filtration, advanced UV and ozone"

source from :
https://public.health.oregon.gov/HealthyEnv...yanotoxins.aspx

standard diameter +- 250mm unless u gonna get waterco, they have extra large size 300mm

reviews u can read through this discussion thread, lots of debates and explanations.


1. Basic start, check for certifications but do not blindly buy because it has certifications. Some cheap filters RM 500-600 also has certifications but does not mean they could provide premium filtration quality. Certification is more like to show this company has consistency in their product and their product has some standards or quality, hence quite reliable.

2. Check what filter media is used and also ask them to show you. Some brands have big cartridges but the inside only have very little filter media or sometimes what is stated on the catalog is not really what is given
