We made the decision to install a Water Express 5 stage filtration system (with RO and UV). The installation was not to bad considering the small space in the island. 2 things I thought I would share;

1) How the Installation Went - in the island of the 3720 is a drain pipe and power. The entire corner is blocked off with a panel, first thing I did was remove this panel and the cutting board storage (under the sink right side). I then glued and screwed a 24”wide by 20” high piece of 3/8” plywood. The filter unit was mounted to the plywood, centred under the sink. To do this meant removing the sink drain piping. I moved the cutting board storage divider to the left side of the island instead of the 45deg drain pipe divider. The storage tank is just right of the new cutting board divider. A picture is worth a thousand words so a few are attached.


2) The Water Quality - first trip out with the unit and I must say its great . . . . It may be that we have great water at this first site. The reason we installed the unit is that we had always brought 4L jugs of water for drinking and cooking. It has been a must to have great water and not take any chances. This gives us great water, and no chance of bacteria as well as eliminating the plastic bottles and the pain of getting/hauling/storing water.
