Replacement filters are only available through dealers.

I just want to replace a simple filter but MUST use local dealer. The cost of the service call for a 2 minute filter change twice a year made me remove the system and buy a competitors product that sells filters at Home Depot.

Selling filters which are a simple item to replace must be more profitable than watching users abandon the brand. The markup alone on filters justifies direct sales.

If I need a service professional I will call one. In this DIY world we live in this company is a dinosaur.

Kinetico makes a 1/4 turn filter housing and 1/4 filter... they are around $10 (typically) per disposable and $20 washable that can be used 3-6x's...

you're not very DIY if you can't do this simple task.

if you have the older pre filter, those were COMPLETELY universal, if you buy just the updated pre filter and bypass, it's called a super kit and maybe runs $250-$350 installed by the professionals at Kinetico and is a GREAT upgrade and YES it's proprietary and is FAR superior.

You do not need anyone to come out and change the filters. You can do it yourself. My Kinetico dealer told me to do it on my own instead of paying them to do it.

I am also going to ditch my Kinetico. my problem is I can't be home when the only dealer in 75 miles of us can come out, and its very inconvenient to get to them between 9 and 5.

How the heck can NOONE sell these things online. I mean really?

I get 5 packages a week from amazon and ebay and neither is allowed to sell these. good system but not worth the hassels.

Kinetico is a trusted name in water treatment for Over 40 years... you find many Trusted, in-home service professionals ONLINE to ship items and warranty them, but Don't install it?

How can you back something that was hooked up wrong? they need to be installed by a licensed, trained professional. take a day off or have the neighbor kid come let them in...

ridiculous decision to ditch the best, most efficient, most reliable trusted brand, NOT A DIY installation. Call the pro's.
