Reverse-osmosis (RO) filtration systems are mostly similar in design and materials. That’s not the case with the CuZn UC-200. This filter system wants to fill that niche at the very pinnacle of the RO market – an under-sink water filter that achieves convenience, longevity and incredible water quality.
The differences are noticeable right off the bat. It isn’t bulky like most systems, but rather small and compact. It’s a little over a foot long and it’s only a few inches in diameter.
The size makes it ultra-convenient. It’s small and light; and can be installed quickly and directly into the cold faucet. In this, it appeals to the filter-user who usually opts out of RO due to the bulk of RO filtration systems or the hassle of installing and maintaining one; [easyazon_link identifier=”B000923524″ locale=”US” tag=”cleanwaterhome-20″]the CuZnUC-200 water filter[/easyazon_link] is also virtually maintenance free.

Second, it appeals to those who already have RO filtration systems and are looking to branch out or replace an aging RO system. The lifetime of the UC-200 is about 50,000 gallons or roughly five years. It’s easy to see why many consumers invest in RO for its long-term advantages, and that distinction is easy to appreciate in the UC-200: when installed correctly, you’ll have cleaner, better-tasting and healthier water for half a decade.
These first two considerations already show us that UC-200 is a top notch product. It brings users with different needs together from different directions. It’s impressive and applicable to both the consumer who normally prefers other filtration methods to RO, as well as appealing to the experienced RO consumer looking for something new and a little different, but not too different. So, it’s off to a good start.
How well does it filter? UC-200 reduces or eliminates heavy metals, micro-organisms, pesticides and other pollutants. It has a rapid flow rate which, combined with its varied and encompassing filtration, makes it attractive to most water-filter consumers.
However, it’s easier to fall under the UC-200’s spell than to assess it carefully. It’s a fascinating filtration system, but with all its miraculous promises, it warrants some scrutiny. Is it as pain-free as it seems to be? Does it deliver on these promises? Let’s look at it in more detail.
